Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
I can suggest that you create some code to modify the frontend robots meta only for certain categories by making use of the following filter:
/**
* Allows filtering of the robots meta data.
*
* @param array $robots The meta robots directives.
*/
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
return $robots;
});
I hope this info helps. Thank you.
Thanks. But am not a developer. So I guess I should add the above code to my child-theme function right?
Also, the code seems not to specify the particular category am excluding from google search.
Please little explanation will help.
Thanks
Hello,
That code is a template, you should customize it to fit your needs. We are not able to provide customized code since we are a small team, but I did it for you, you just need to add it at the end of your functions.php file:
/**
* Allows filtering of the robots meta data.
*
* @param array $robots The meta robots directives.
*/
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
if(is_single()){
$categories = get_the_category();
foreach( $categories as $category ) {
if($category->name=="Infinix"){
$robots['index'] = 'noindex';
$robots['follow'] = 'follow';
break;
}
}
}
return $robots;
});
Looking forward to help you.
