Hello,
Thank you for contacting us and we regret the inconvenience caused.
Discovered, not indexed, simply means that Google is aware of the page’s existence but the pages are yet to be indexed.
This is usually related to the crawl budget of the website. Google assigns a crawl budget to each website and in this case, it seems like the crawl budget might have been exhausted before these pages are crawled.
Please give Google some time to crawl the website again and see if the pages are indexed.
Also, could you please share some of the affected URLs so that we can check them and the sitemaps on our end?
Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.
The main page has not been indexed yet.
Hello,
I can check your page is set to index and your sitemap is also working fine. However, it seems like your robots.txt file is not the default one that Rank Math generates and doesn’t have the info about your sitemap. Please navigate to WP Dashboard > Rank Math > General Settings > Edit Robots.txt and remove all the rules inside it to use the default one.
User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
Sitemap: https://lahore42.tv/sitemap_index.xml
If you are not able to edit the file then please follow this guide: https://rankmath.com/kb/cant-edit-robots-txt/
Wait for Google to crawl your site again after making those changes.
Let us know how that goes. Looking forward to your update.
Editing the robot.txt from rank math was locked so I edited it from the root folder.
Hello,
It is recommended to use the file generated by Rank Math and remove the physical file. However, your robots.txt file seems fine now. Please wait for Google to crawl your site again.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you need any other assistance.
Thanks.
