    Thank you a lot whooami for you answer.
    Please help me by explaining technical details that why it is not possible?

    1. The “search bots” won’t have access to the DB entries unless they are populated within a publicly viewed web page; thus, the comments that await moderation won’t be exposed to the bots or anyone who’s accessing your pages for that matter.

    2. The themes are simply modified PHP code and different CSS styles which determine the look, feel and functionality of a given WP site based on its unique content generated from its DB/MySQL, so all the themes will pretty much have the same identical content, despite the fact that a disables/non-active theme is not publicly accessible.

    I hope that answers your questions.

    Re 2) But by default WP installation, Google would be able to index the themes installed, as Google can stumble by https://www.domain.com/wp-content/themes/ – not sure what Google would used that for though ??

    I wonder why WP is missing empty index.html files in these folders :-/
