    Hi

    im just continuing this old thread https://support.rankmath.com/ticket/query-strings-paramters-exclude/

    Basically what I would to ask is how to implement this on multiple parameters (not just single param)

     add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
	$url = home_url( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] );
	if(strpos($url,"?s=") !== false)  {
		$robots['index'] = "noindex";
		return $robots;
	};
	return $robots;
});

    For example I have ?s=,?amp=,?noamp= where I like rankmath meta return noindex, tried this code on generatepress child function.php but it throws error

     add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
	$url = home_url( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] );
	if(strpos($url,"?q=","?max-results","?amp","?post_type","?page_id=") !== false)  {
		$robots['index'] = "noindex";
		return $robots;
	};
	return $robots;
});

    Uncaught ArgumentCountError: strpos() expects at most 3 arguments, 6 given in wp-content/themes/generatepress_child/functions.php:5

    Hello,

    The strpos function doesn’t support multiple entries or “needles” so you would need to do it like this:

    ...
if (strpos($url,'?s=') !== false || strpos($url,'?amp=') !== false || strpos($url,'?noamp=') !== false) {
  $robots['index'] = "noindex";
		return $robots;
}
...

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
