Appreciate it a lot man. I am assuming that this gets pasted in my functions.php file? </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/remove-noindex-from-category-pages#post-22982 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 20:10:52 +0000 ScottNix 22982@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Ok, this will change the noindex, nofollow meta to index, follow on the categories.</p> <pre><code>// remove the index and follow tags from main pages and allow categories to be indexed function childtheme_create_robots($content) { if (thematic_seo()) { if((is_home() &#38;&#38; ($paged &lt; 2 )) || is_front_page() || is_single() || is_page() || is_attachment()) { $content = &quot;&quot;; } elseif (is_search()) { $content = &quot;\t&quot;; $content .= &quot;&lt;meta name=\&quot;robots\&quot; content=\&quot;noindex,nofollow\&quot; /&gt;&quot;; $content .= &quot;\n\n&quot;; } elseif (is_category()) { $content = &quot;\t&quot;; $content .= &quot;&lt;meta name=\&quot;robots\&quot; content=\&quot;index,follow\&quot; /&gt;&quot;; $content .= &quot;\n\n&quot;; } else { $content = &quot;\t&quot;; $content .= &quot;&lt;meta name=\&quot;robots\&quot; content=\&quot;noindex,follow\&quot; /&gt;&quot;; $content .= &quot;\n\n&quot;; } return $content; } } add_filter(&#39;thematic_create_robots&#39;, &#39;childtheme_create_robots&#39;);</code></pre> <p>This snippet will actually do one more thing too... It removes the "index, follow" tag from normal pages. Why? Because by default a page is already index, follow, so having it actually in the meta is redundant and just adds an extra line of code for no reason, so for cleanliness of code, I removed it. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/remove-noindex-from-category-pages#post-22973 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 07:22:34 +0000 edensun 22973@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>hey guys. can anyone please help me with this?

After rummaging around in thousands of themes, i have finally found the one i like. I use thematic with the power blog child theme</p> <p>I want to remove the "noindex" attribute from category pages. Currently the source on my category pages shows &lt;meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow" /&gt; </p> <p>Doing some research I found that in /library/extensions/header-extensions.php there is thematic_create_robots filter in which this code lives (thanks to helgatheviking)</p> <p>Now, I know i have to do something in my functions.php file in my child theme(power blog) to make this work. Any help would be appreciated.</p> <p>p.s. I am a php newbie.</p> <p>Thanks very much</p> <p>Eden </p>
