Hello,
Webmaster Tools is generating a few errors on my website http://www.belterphysicaltherapy.com and I need your advice/support on how to fix.
Soft 404 for this link http://www.belterphysicaltherapy.com/?s=%7Bsearch_term%7D linked from the home page. I’m not seeing where this link is being generated. It’s possibly an error within the PHP or JavaScript within the theme or the additional code added.
In addition, there’s an error for this url http://www.belterphysicaltherapy.com/wp-content/themes/enfold/framework/php/function.require-once with no referring link. This seems possibly related to the search bar functionality for the blog page.
Have you seen these errors before? Do you know how I can clean them up?
Hi zdevine!
1. Try installing the WordPress SEO plugin. I think it sets the search pages to be noindex in the robots.txt file by default.
2. I’m not sure about this. Copy the exact message & error that webmaster tools gives you and paste it here.

Hey!
Soft 404s, no matter how many there are, will not harm your google indexing or ranking in any way so I wouldn’t worry about it. Regarding the search result error, you should disallow search results page from being crawled because they don’t add value and falls on a category as duplicated content. Refer to this link on how to disallow these pages from being crawled by search engines: http://www.robotstxt.org/robotstxt.html
Best regards,
