[Plugin: WP Greet Box] Take spiders into account with the NOSCRIPT greet box (2 posts)

    I love this plugin, but there's one little issue I noticed today. Having a default greet box displayed for users without JavaScript is enabled is a great idea, but it also ends up getting spidered by search engines and sometimes placed into search results for the page -- not exactly good for SEO. If the NOSCRIPT greet box can be recoded to not show up for spiders (at least the major ones), that would be fantastic!

    I just thought of the same thin after installing this plugin. A google search illustrates the problem..
