Put NoIndex Post

@vicentsalvador92

We checked the screenshot. If you have a Gutenberg editor, and you don’t see Yoast SEO Metabox below the editor, then it’s likely that it is in the right column – sidebar. The advanced section in the Yoast SEO meta box on the edit screen of the item should allow you to noindex the current page.

Thank you very much for your answer, I have looked at the right side and if the Yoast Seo block appears but I can’t find the tab to put it noindex. I leave you a screenshot

Hi @vicentsalvador92

We tried to access https://imgbb.com/Y0fvKJc and the image wasn’t loading. Could you try uploading another screenshot so we can further understand and check the issue that you’re having?

Please try to check if you can locate the advanced tab in the Yoast SEO meta box to access the settings – https://yoast.com/help/how-do-i-noindex-urls/

Thank you very much for your answer. I leave you a screenshot of a post, where you can see with arrows the 2 Yoast boxes that appear to me. In neither of the 2 I find the advanced section to put the post in noindex.

Here’s another likely reason for missing the Advanced tab section. The advanced settings option in the Yoast SEO meta box is turned off for authors. So we request you to check if you have the appropriate access or role. If you are editing the page as an Author, please log in as an Administrator & follow the below steps and try editing the page again:

From your WordPress dashboard, go to SEO (on the left sidebar menu)

– Click on the General submenu & then go to the Features tab
– Then Go to Security: no advanced or schema settings for authors & toggle the switch to OFF.
– Click On Save changes

Let us know the result.

Hello Suwash
I don’t see in the sidebar the SEO plugin to configure. I have logged in with 3 admins that I have different on that wordpress and it does not come up for me to configure the plugin. This is very strange since 2 months ago I configured the plugin correctly and could log in.

@vicentsalvador92

If no SEO menu is not visible, we would like to have some more things to confirm.

1) Can you confirm that you’re running the latest version of WordPress (5.7.2)?

2) Can you confirm your Yoast SEO is the latest version v16.3?

3) Can you check your user profile and confirm that the SEO permissions have not been disabled on that screen? (The Yoast-related settings are usually near the bottom of the profile editor.)

If none of the above resolves the issue, we’d like to ask you to check for conflicts with other plugins on your site.

Often, we see problems occur in combination with another plugin or theme. The fastest way to rule out any conflict, is to deactivate all non-Yoast plugins and switch to a standard theme like Twenty Twenty.

Please test this on your development or staging site, if you have one. If not, we recommend using the Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin. This plugin has a troubleshooting mode, which does not affect normal visitors to your site.

If you’re unfamiliar with checking for conflicts, we’d like to point you to a step-by-step guide that will walk you through the process: How to check for plugin conflicts

If you do not feel comfortable to do this yourself or if this does not solve your issue, our Yoast SEO Premium plugin comes with one year of (technical) support.`

Can you please inform us of the results, so we can help you figure out what the problem is?

We are going ahead and marking this issue as resolved due to inactivity. If you require any further assistance please create a new issue.
