Allow search engine to restrict forum

[Caez77]

Hello,

It's possible to allow search engine to crawl restrict forum / topic ?

I have 2 forums which are restrict for some members, but i would like to index it

Thank you

Search engines are treated as guests, so not possible.

I used to like this feature in IPB 3 where search engine spiders were a separate user group. Although frowned upon by google, it worked well to stay indexed and still force people to login to view content.
