Hide posts from sitemap that belong to certain category?

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

You can add a noindex tag to the page by editing the individual pages and checking the noindex checkbox in Rank math meta box under Advanced tab.

This will automatically remove the pages from the sitemap.

Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

Hello,

You could add the following code replacing your-category-slug with the slug of the category you want all its posts as no-index.

/**
 * Allows filtering of the robots meta data.
 *
 * @param array $robots The meta robots directives.
 */
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
     global $post;
     // filter for only a specific post type
     if(in_category('your-category-slug')){
        $robots['index'] = "noindex";
        $robots['follow'] = "nofollow";
        return $robots;
     }
	return $robots;
});

Looking forward to help you.

Hello,

Then we might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.

It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

We really look forward to helping you.
