  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with your images being blocked by the robots.txt file and the noindex detection in the robots meta tag. It can be quite frustrating when things don’t work as expected.

    To address this issue, please follow these steps:

    1. Check Your robots.txt File: Ensure that your robots.txt file does not contain any rules that block Googlebot from accessing your images. You can use the Robots Testing Tool to verify this. Make sure to select the "All (robots.txt)" option and test your URL.
      Example of a robots.txt file

    2. Clear Cache: If you have made recent changes to your robots.txt file, clear your website cache and test again to ensure you are viewing the latest version.
      Ensure you check the Live option

    3. Review Meta Tags: If your images are still showing as blocked, check the meta tags on those pages. If there is a noindex directive present, it will prevent Google from indexing those images. Ensure that you are not blocking access to these images through both robots.txt and meta tags simultaneously.

    4. Allow Crawling: If you want Google to index your images, make sure that your robots.txt allows crawling of those URLs. You can refer to our guide on how to edit your robots.txt file with Rank Math for assistance.

    If you have followed these steps and are still encountering issues, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.

    Thank you for raising this concern! We’re here to help you resolve it.
