Informations about the package wp-robots-txt
WP Robots Txt
This is a single serving plugin that adds a field on the Reading Settings WordPress admin page which allows you to edit your robots.txt
file contents.
Limitations
If you have a robots.txt
file on your server, this plugins won't work. WordPress, in the server configuration it suggests by default, never overrides URLs that exist on your server. In other words, if robots.txt
is on your server, WP will never even load -- Apache (or nginx or IIS) will serve that file directly.
Also, this plugin does not help you write valid a robots.txt
file, nor will it alert you when you've written one that is invalid. That part is up to you.
FAQ
I totally screwed up my robots.txt
file. How can I restore the default version?
Delete all the content from the Robots.txt Content field and save the privacy options.
Could I accidently block all search bots with this?
Yes. Be careful! That said, robots.txt
files are suggestions. They don't really block bots as much as they suggest that bots don't crawl portions of a site. That's why the options on the Privacy Settings page say "Ask search engines not to index this site."
Where can I learn more about robots.txt
files?
