    Hello,
    I want to exclude my Gravatar avatar (the same photo you can see it on the post right now) from Google to pick it up. Let’s say I create a post named “X”, when I google “X”, I see my own profile picture in results. How can I exclude my profile picture from such searches?

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    The gravatar showing up on google is added through elementor widget. You can add a disallow to your robots.txt with your image source url. It might not be instantly removed but it will prevent google from indexing the image next time it crawls your site.

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

    Okay thank you very much for your reply!
    Would “Disallow:[URL of Gravatar pic]” be correct?

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    I believe that would work perfectly fine.

    Please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

    When I click on the text box on robots.txt page, the defaults codes (Disallow:/wp-admin/, Allow:blah blah) disappear. So should I re-write all of them and then add my Disallow code, or just add the code? (screenshot: https://prnt.sc/suy671)
