Is there a way to hide an entire category or individual portfolio items from search engines?
thanks

I’m actually hoping to hide items from search engine results, so that link doesn’t apply unless I’m missing something.

Hi,

You could try something like this in your robots.txt:
```
User-agent: *
Disallow: /category/name-of-category
```

Thanks, the robots.txt file is dynamically generated isn’t it?

Thanks for the help! I’m trying All in One SEO. I’ll give Yoast a shot if this doesn’t work. Seems like both get really good reviews.
