{search_term} error in Google Webmaster Tools.

  • I am now getting an crawl error from this using %7Bsearch_term%7D as a search term.

    As I understand this, it’s Google using a bot to check my search box, entering this as a search term. It results in a soft 404 error in my case.

    I found a possible fix here: https://goo.gl/INfybq using this bit of code in my functions.php file.

    add_filter( 'disable_wpseo_json_ld_search', '__return_true' );

    I used it and this
    1. Did not fix the problem
    2. Prevented the WordPress SEO plugin from generating XML site maps.

    To get my site XML site maps generated, I had to disable all plugins and re-activate them.

    Anybody have a fix for this?
