Status 200 on 404 Page

  • Hi There,

    I just Debugged the page for a client. The Problem is. /company/xyc pages load the 404 template but give back Status 200 which is bad for SEO because old or randomly generated pages might be indexed.

    I suggest for a valid Status code. Throw $wp_query->set_404(); status_header(404); in line 145.

    I hacked it in in my instance but i guess this would be a good thing for everyone if added + i could keep the plugin on my Clients site up to date without further maintanance.

    cheers.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]
