Hey all,
My website had decent google presence while using PHP wordpress install. However, after moving to Frontity (using head-tags), I have noticed it has been removed from google search results.
I have now manually set the robots: https://benwrightdev.com/robots.txt
But this checker still says there is a problem with crawability?

I’m not missing anything right? That robots.txt should allow googles crawler?
Any help greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Ben
Ok I think I solved this. I had enabled ‘Discourage search engines from indexing this site’ on my wordpress install and because frontity/head-tags takes the whole head section, I had a no-index meta tag on my frontity installation.
I have disabled this option and purged the wordpress head tags plugin cache and it looks good.

Hi @ben.wright.dev
Awesome, glad you managed to solve your issue. It’s alway worth checking your WordPress configuration and not just assume that it’s a problem with your code. I’ve fallen foul of that one too!
