WordPress setting search pages for geo directory as noindex

    Hi,

    I recently installed a geo directory search function on my website, you can see from the url provided.

    I configured the geo directory search results pages to show content dynamically based on the search query. Because these pages are dynamic and always changing, I want the pages to be indexable.

    Unfortunately by default wordpress sets a noindex in all search results pages.

    How can I enable indexing of these search results pages, or completely disable wordpress from setting these pages with a noindex?

    Thank you,

    The site I need help with is [visible only to staff] (email visible only to moderators and staff)/rehab-centers/?geodir_search=1&stype=gd_place&spost_category%5B%5D=425&s=Alcohol+Addiction&snear=Florida. It is not hosted by WordPress.com or connected with Jetpack. This site is not linked to my WordPress.com account.

    Hi there,

    The site you are referring to appears to be a self-hosted WordPress (also called “.org”) site hosted on Googledomains Web Hosting, and not a site hosted on our WordPress.com service.

    You can confirm here: https://gwhois.org/guardianrecoverynetwork.com+dns

    To clarify, we are not the only providers of WordPress sites, and other hosting companies also happen to offer WordPress sites, but they use a different version of the platform than what we use here. Because of this we are not able to help with your issue as it lies outside of our system. See http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ for more info.

    You can find support for your self-hosted WordPress site here: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

    You may also wish to contact the support team for the GeoDirectory plugin more assistance.

    Hope that points you in the right direction!

    Hi there – We don’t delete threads. Just as well, it’s entirely possible someone will search for something similar in the future and fall on this thread which lets them know where to go next. So, in a round-about way, you’re helping the next person. I will go ahead and close this thread. We hope you find the solution you need. :)
