Hi Friends,
In my Forum, I have set the permissions such that only "Registered Users" can view the thread contents.

Now, Google Adsense provides a functionality called "Site Authentication" which allows the AdSense crawler to access pages that are behind a login.
So it needs the following parameters:
Restricted Directory or URL:
e.g. https://www.example.com/members
Authentication URL:
e.g. https://www.example.com/auth.cgi

So,can someone please tell me for VBulletin forums what these URLs would be.

Thanks

No. We have no google adsense authentification URL so they can login as a member on the site.

A user can login using login.php

I think then it would be a good option to have in future releases.

Thanks

Feel free to contact Google Support to recommend it. They can update Analytics to support vBulletin too.
