    Hi,

    So far I have not understood the application of ‘Site-wide default: none’ option in the Advanced tab. At this link: [https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/site-wide-defaultnone-in-meta-robots-advanced/] you guys answered the same question from another user as follows: “None means do not add Any custom robots like noindex or nofollow “. Therefore, I understand that by selecting the option “Site-wide default: none”, any selection made in the above option ‘Meta robots follow’ will have no effect on the page / post. However, I set the ‘Site-wide default: none’ option and I chose the ‘nofollow’ option in a post, and when viewing the source code was displayed the following meta tag: <meta name = “robots” content = “index, nofollow” /> . So, I still have not understood the behaviour, can you guys clarify?

    Thanks in advance!
