    Dear Kriesi support,

    the first lines of code in our home page http://naturalnicheperfume.com/
    have these two conflicting lines
    <meta name=”robots” content=”index, follow” />
    <meta name=’robots’ content=’noindex,follow’ />
    Our website is not yet live so in WordPress Reading Settings we have checked
    Search Engine Visibility Discourage search engines from indexing this site

    our robot.txt contains these lines:
    ######################
    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /
    Disallow: /cart/
    Disallow: /wp-admin/
    Disallow: /wp-includes/

    Sitemap: http://naturalnicheperfume.com/sitemap.xml
    ######################

    Has anything to do with theme settings?

    Thank you Mauro

    Hey!

    Please add following code to functions.php file in Appearance > Editor

    add_filter('avf_set_follow','avia_set_nofollow');
function avia_set_nofollow(){
$meta = '<meta name="robots" content="noindex, follow" />' . "\n";
return $meta;
}

    Cheers!

    Thank you, now there is no conflict but the directive is still repeated twice

    <meta name=”robots” content=”noindex, follow” /><meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1″><meta name=’robots’ content=’noindex,follow’ />

    When we will go live should I keep this filter and change it to this?

    add_filter(‘avf_set_follow’,’avia_set_nofollow’);
    function avia_set_nofollow(){
    $meta = ‘<meta name=”robots” content=”index, follow” />’ . “\n”;
    return $meta;
    }

    or removing the checkbox to Search Engine Visibility “Discourage search engines from indexing this site” will be sufficient?

    Thank you
    Mauro

    Hi!

    Please try to adjust the code:

    add_filter('avf_set_follow','avia_set_nofollow');
function avia_set_nofollow(){
return "";
}

    This will disable the theme’s meta tag.

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    it’s the same. Here is how it looks without minification

    <meta name=”robots” content=”noindex, follow” />
    <!– mobile setting –>
    <meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1″>
    <!– Scripts/CSS and wp_head hook –>
    <meta name=’robots’ content=’noindex,follow’ />

    Sorry maybe was still in cache, now is ok. Only one instance of
    <meta name=’robots’ content=’noindex,follow’ />

    When we will go live should I keep this filter?

    add_filter(‘avf_set_follow’,’avia_set_nofollow’);
    function avia_set_nofollow(){
    return “”;
    }

    or removing the checkbox to Search Engine Visibility “Discourage search engines from indexing this site” will be sufficient to allow search engines to crawl the site?

    Thank you Mauro

    Hey!

    Please remove the code and uncheck “Search Engine Visibility” when you would like to launch your website
