    Hi

    Is it possible to disable Bing from crawling my pages using maybe an Nginx trick or by csf?

    Thanks

    Bing doesn't respect robots.txt :(

    I was looking for an Nginx solution for it... :)

    I actually had no idea .htaccess didn't work with nginx, if that's the case my apologies. I'm still new to this nginx thing, clearly I'm learning new things every day lol.
