Hi there!

I woul need to deindex all the pages generated by the categories filters:

The pages to be deindexed are the ones which have ?filter_by=

I would need to insert <META NAME=”ROBOTS” CONTENT=”NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW”> in the header section of each one of this pages.

Could you please help me?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

You can add rel="nofollow" to the link in the code – http://screencast.com/t/C31Ttlve4 – http://screencast.com/t/zVwC9IZh4s

Hi,

You can try to add a condition in header.php like this – http://screencast.com/t/5zeZVfR23

<?php
    if(is_category() and isset($_GET['filter_by'])) {
        echo '<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow" />';
    }?>

Hope this helps!
