Hi all, I need help with whitelisting crawler for outbrain.

Outbrain.com is a content syndication service. They recommend your content on other websites. Before they do, they have their crawlers go through their website.

That’s where the problems start for me. I can’t progress with outbrain without having the crawlers look at my site.

I emailed them asking, and they just pointed me to their FAQ page, step 3, whitelist their crawlers.

I have a feeling is it BP security that is blocking the crawlers. So, how do I do whitelist them? I understand it’s something to do with editing the secure htaccess file. But which one, and how?

I’ve never had a problem with crawlers from search engines like Google or even Facebook crawlers. So I’m pretty surprised that I have a problem with this.

Thanks for any and all help!
