Hi,
It seems that for every image a NEW page is created. I now got dozens of pages in the search results and they are not really helping with my SEO…
Can I prevent this from happening?https://echomarketing.nl/kirsten-nelis/

if you go to your media library and open one image to edit – there is an attachment page.
If you are using Yoast SEO there is an Option to do this : redirect image attachment page to something.if you not using it – and you don’t like to use a plugin – you can redirect all image attachment pages f.e. to your homepage via child-theme functions.php:
function image_redirect_attachment_page() { if ( is_attachment() ) { global $post; if ( $post && $post->post_parent ) { wp_redirect( esc_url( get_permalink( $post->post_parent ) ), 301 ); exit; } else { wp_redirect( esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ), 301 ); exit; } } } add_action( 'template_redirect', 'image_redirect_attachment_page' );December 11, 2019 at 6:49 pm #1164946PS : a lot of tools to redirect – and even Yoast SEO did it this way.
But i try to find a solution to completely hamper creation of those attachment pages – but didn’t found one.December 11, 2019 at 7:17 pm #1164955Hi Guenni,
Thanks you so much. I have installed Yoast plugin so now all the pages are redirected to the mediafile. Crazy feauture from WordPress I think.
