  Does selecting ‘Do not allow search engines to index my site’ under the privacy setting block WordPress from showing your stuff in the Reader search results? If not, how can you? I’d rather not have to set it to private.

  Hello there,

  Many thanks for reaching out.

  Does selecting ‘Do not allow search engines to index my site’ under the privacy setting block WordPress from showing your stuff in the Reader search results? If not, how can you? I’d rather not have to set it to private.

  This setting does stop posts from appearing in the reader, but you may see this in your own reader feed.

  I hope this helps.
