Rankmath indexing Page that should be non-existent

    Hi there, apparently Rankmath is indexing this page https://robotic-eyes.com/?lang=en over and over.

    I already checked back with WPML and they said that this isn’t an issue with them but rather with the page being indexed and it needs to set to noindex. But I cannot do that since when I try deletion via the indexing API it works for about a day and then it gets re-indexed.

    Any clues on how I can just exclude this https://robotic-eyes.com/?lang=en Url from indexing other than using the temporary fix over search console?

    The goal is to absolutely exclude this page from indexation. Just this one.

    I will provide login-data via the sensitive data section

    Thanks in advance
    Cheers
    Alex

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    The access provided is too limited to make any change on your site. You can add a disallow in your robots.txt file to keep Google from crawling that specific page. To do so, just head over to Rank math > General Settings > Robots.txt and replace everything with the following:

    
    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /wp-admin/
    Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
    Disallow: /?lang=en
    
    Sitemap: https://robotic-eyes.com/sitemap_index.xml
    

    Once done you can remove your URL from indexing again and let us know if the issue recurs.

    Hope this helps you Thank you.

    Hi Michael,

    thank you. I really appreciate the response.

    I will try that out and let you know if it worked or not.

    Another question on that topic – When are you planning to release a paid version of the plugin? I’d be one of the first to purchase that.

    Thank you so much
    Cheers,
