    I’m using the GeneratePress premium theme and in Google Search console i’m getting almost 9k pages not indexed but they don’t even exist on my website.

    I really don’t know how to tackle this. Why is it showing these pages in Google Search console if they are not part of my website? Below are some examples

    Hi there,

    This doesn’t sound like a theme issue as it’s not something the theme can control.

    Have you tried #1 here to debug?
    https://docs.generatepress.com/article/debugging-tips/

    If that doesn’t help, try #4 in the same article.

    Let me know 🙂

    The below thread on google makes sense. one of the comments said the below

    ‘There is no point for URLs that do not have their own content to redirect to search URLs with final status 200 OK. This way they take time and resources to be crawled and the redirects processed, even if it is just to see the noindex tag.
    URLs that do not have their own content, non-existing URLs, or incorrect URLs, or out of date URLs, need to return status 404 Not Found for all user-agents that visit the site.’

    How to return 404 for URLs that do not have their own content, non-existing URLs, or incorrect URLs, or out of date URLs, using GeneratePress?

    Hi Haissam,

    A 404 return should occur by default if the page doesn’t exist. GeneratePress has no control over this.

    Can you try rebuilding Permalinks through Settings > Permalinks? Just hit the save button.

    Moreover, how did disabling non-GP plugins go?
