robots Checkbox

Could it be that the Robots (Privacy) Checkbox has no more effect.
Toggle on and toggle off results in the Meta data  as:
<meta name="robots" content="noarchive, noindex, nofollow">

My site imagepower.ch is gone frome google... :-(

Or am I makîng some mistakes here?
Cheers
Fabian

Re: robots Checkbox

If you turn that on, you're site should be hidden from search engines.

you can also create your own robots.txt file. Just Google about the interwebs for some guidance.

Re: robots Checkbox

turning on and turnig off has no effect on the values in

<meta name="robots" content="noarchive, noindex, nofollow">

it's every time the same...

I can not turn off this line!

Re: robots Checkbox

seems to be an error in the file head.html:

<% if M.page_setup.html.robots == 'disallow' or M.password.enable then %>
    <meta name="robots" content="noarchive, noindex, nofollow" />
<% end %>

Re: robots Checkbox

Hurra! You had the right idea. Copying the styleData section from galleries to pages (with password protection on) the pages template had also password protection on (but hidden, you can't see it in lightroom).
Thanks for another great support!

that's something that's good to know. I just saw the "or M.password..." in the code and thought that might cause the problem.

Re: robots Checkbox

Good find. I'll make sure this is fixed for the next Pages update.

As you've already found the code, you can safely change:

<% if M.page_setup.html.robots == 'disallow' or M.password.enable then %>

To:

<% if M.page_setup.html.robots == 'disallow' then %>
