Upload unzipped plugin directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress 3. Use the Bot detector Options on left configure your preferences. ## FAQ There are many other bots, what about the? Well straight forward answer is that go Pro. You can track 50+ bots, crawlers, spiders etc and it has flexibility to add more. But I only want to track one Bot? In Pro you can deactivate what you don’t want to track. How do I upgrade from Lite to Pro? Simple. First Deactivate your Lite version and activate your Pro version and that’s pretty much it. Can I update Bot Info ? Well you can in Pro, but I would recommend not to touch data that comes with this plugin. You can however add your own bots, spiders etc and experiment with that data instead. From where can I get Pro version ?
