Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

[SOLVED] Lijit Search, robots.txt, and /Disallow

Hello,

I implement Lijit Search on all my sites, as I really like the control it gives me over the search box and the detailed analytics.

I recently received a message from Lijit support (whom are great people, btw) stating this:

Quote:
It looks like you currently have a setting prohibiting crawlers from indexing your content. In order for us to get you properly crawled, you will need to edit the robots.txt file on your site and remove the following line:

Disallow: /

Until then, we won’t be able to index anything.
I have noticed that my Atahualpa sites were having some problems with content being indexed into my search engine, and according to Lijit, this is the problem.

I googled to learn more about the "Disallow" and want to know --- should I Disallow certain folders or can I just delete this line?

I am still relatively new to understanding the code and want to be sure that I know what I'm doing so I don't negatively impact how Google search crawlers see the site, etc.

Anyone else using Lijit?
