Hi, I have this problem that Search Console ir warning me.
My url https://buscavidas.org/wp-content/themes/Newsmag/ is being detected by Google Search Console and throwing a warning. Is it a way to prevent that https://buscavidas.org/wp-content/themes/Newsmag/ index.php is accesible and also that returns a 500 error. Maybe some redirection…?

Regards,
-Nicolas

This is a common error when changing themes, where Google can “see” the dev folder during changeovers.

Only way to avoid this in future, it’s only going to happen when updating theme, so you can ignore it — is to use a “maintenance mode” plugin; turn off Yoast or other sitemap app; then update any theme such as this one; then when done, turn the maintenance mode OFF.

This happens with all themes, and is nothing to worry about — just mark ‘fixed’ in your search console and move on.

Ideally, if there were a “top 25 FAQs” page here, that would be one of them 😉
