    How do I exclude Categories from Google Index?

    I don’t want Google to index Categories (could have duplicate content issues). I just want pages and posts indexed – not categories and tags.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting the support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Please head over to your WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Categories, enable “Archives Robots Meta” and check “No Index” option just below it. Please refer to my screenshot below:

    You can also do the same with your other taxonomy pages if they are currently set to index.

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