Hi @DawPi

It's been over a month, did you happen to make any progress? 

Thank you. 

 

No, not yet. Mod works as intended and your request is beyond of scope of standard support for my mods (bugs etc).

@DawPi would you mind sharing what bot user agents you are detecting?  

I specifically wanted to check on AdsBot-Google-Mobile (both Android and Web), AdsBot-Google, and Mediapartners-Google.  I'm also curious about other Google ones noted at  https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/crawling/overview-google-crawlers

I was wanting to move Google's Adsense and their ad quality checking bots from default Guest to Members group since there is some content that is not available to guests that Google needs to get access to.  This sounds like it could work if it detects these bots.
