Getting lots of duplicate errors in search console for what looks like indexed paginated search pages example URL:
https://example.com/page/77/?s&_page=50
There are hundreds of these.
Is this something controlled by the theme?
Thanks PAul
Hi there,
no the Theme doesn't create or control URLs.
If you're using an SEO plugin they may provide an option to block indexing of search results. If not you can:
1. Create a new Hook Element.
2. Add this:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow"/>
3. Select the WP_Head hook.
4. Set the Display Rules to Search Results
Awesome. Thanks.
You're welcome
