Rel= for Pagination Archives

Hello @santacruze

Thank you for contacting the support.

rel-next / rel-prev will be added only if the category pages are set to ‘index’, please refer this screenshot https://i.mythemeshop.com/u93vBR

Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know.

Heya Suraj,

Thanks for the reply. So with noindex on categories the meta wont be added at all? Is there any chance to add it with a function?

Sincerely,

Stefan

Hello,

Sorry for my ignorance but can you please tell us why do you want to add those tags?

Is there any other SEO plugin which is adding those tags?

Aso, don’t add the noindex robots directive to paginated pages.

There are two reasons:
If pages have been noindexed for a long time, after a while Google will stop crawling them and hence, stop following links.
If you’ve applied the rel=”next” and rel=”prev” attributes, search engines will understand the relationships between the pages and often only show the paginated pages if you’re specifically looking for content that’s only on those pages.

You can read further about it on this page:

Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
