1. Re: How to allow search engines access to restricted pages
Jon Fritz II Sep 9, 2013 6:11 AM (in response to matthew stuart)Search enchine crawlers will have the same access a non-logged in user has right now, they'll be able to see whatever someone going to any given page of your site sees without logging in.
If a user can't see a page without a log-in, neither will a bot. If a user sees a partial page without logging in, so will the bots. Aside from needing a login to view a page, about the only other thing that will stop a crawler cold is the robots meta tag set with noindex, nofollow.
So it really all depends on how your site login is set up.

Nancy O. Sep 9, 2013 11:29 AM (in response to matthew stuart)If a log-in is required, bots cannot see the page.
If you want bots to see something, put it on a non-restricted page.
