Hello

I am using google adsense ad on my site, I just paste the code into the block but not using the adsense module.
From the research on google I have found , I need to paste the code:

"User-agent: Mediapartners-Google
Disallow:
Allow: /*"

in the robot.txt to make the adsense works.

The question is : the code below in robot.txt already: should I paste the "User-agent: Mediapartners-Google..." above them or should I remove the code which already in the robot.txt first,and then paste the new code ? Thank you very much!

User-agent: *
Crawl-delay: 10

If you want ads on all your pages, but you don't want those pages to appear in Google Search you should use:

User-agent: Googlebot
Disallow: /

User-agent: Mediapartners-Google
Disallow:

More information on that matter is available here:

However since in your current robots.txt you are allowing all user-agents, there is no need to add:

"User-agent: Mediapartners-Google
Disallow:
Allow: /*"

Hope the information was useful.

Best Regards
