[Support request] No index a page

[Kamela]

Hi All,

Can you let me know how to noindex a page so search engines don’t display it, but can still be accessed via link?

Thanks,
Kammy

Hi Kammy,

Best to use a plugin like Yoast SEO. It has this option inside the Yoast metabox on the specific page 🙂

Ah, OK. I have Yoast, but didn’t see that. I’ll look again! 🙂

Thanks,
Kammy

Hi Tom,

Can you tell where to find the Yoast metabox? I’m only finding a box for internal linking, which doesn’t have anything in it. Actually, I found it.

Thanks,
Kammy

Hello,

I’d like to add no follow, no index to one page. I don’t want to use Yoast as I don’t use it otherwise.

Can I just:

• Create a wp_head hook in Elements
• Add in this code: <meta name=”robots” content=”noindex”>
• Display it on the specific page that I don’t want to index

Is this correct or am I missing something?

Hi there,

Yes, you can use the wp_head hook to add your <meta name="robots" content="noindex" /> meta tag
