    Hi! I was wondering if this will also prevent Google from indexing any /author/* pages?

    Becuase right now, when doing a google search, one of the top results is sitename.com/author/username, and we would really prefer for that not to appear in any google search.

    Thank you!

    I would guess that Google recognizes that /author/* URLs respond 404 and hence does not index. Another thing is the sitemap. Since version 1.3.2 the users section is removed from the WordPress built-in sitemap but in case you’re using an external tool you would probably need to do that manually.
