Hello!

Thank you so much for helping! Oh OK I see so it is not the actual robots.txt that is causing the problem, I see!

When I inspect the URL for all of the 15 affected pages it always tells me the following: the URL is not on Google: indexing errors.

However when I test the live URL of all of the affected pages it tells me that the URL is available to Google.

I have now requested indexing of all the 15 pages. Do you think this will work?

Why do you think the bots have not crawled my blog posts in so long? (15th of june, 19th of july).

Best regards,
Isabella

Thank you so much for your help ??

Thank you for your reply!

I tested a few of the 15 affected URL:s in the URL inspection tool and it tells me:
URL is not on Google: Indexing errors
It cannot appear in Google Search results until it’s indexed.

Then this message:
Discovery

I don’t really understand the robots.txt-thing. All I have in it is:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php

Yes ??

Thanks for your help!

I actually managed to find this one that I am going to use for all the grills:
2985 – Home & Garden > Kitchen & Dining > Kitchen Appliances > Outdoor Grills

I think there is perhaps a limitation with your plugin, it can only show a certain nr of products when you are searching. I had to search “grills” with the S instead of just “grill” in order to find the category above.

I also managed to find one for the spare parts:
505667 – Home & Garden > Kitchen & Dining > Kitchen Appliance Accessories > Outdoor Grill Accessories > Outdoor Grill Replacement Parts

Thanks anyways!

Thanks for your reply! Yes exactly those are the product tags I am talking about.

OK good, however when using your plugin I can only see the Google shopping field “brand” (there is no g:brand), and I can only choose “tag (dynamic attribute)” (there is no “product tag”).

I wish I could send you a screenshot to show you what it looks like.

Oh thank you for your quick reply!

You were right, it works now. I must’ve missed that.
Could you maybe tell me what category I am suppose to use if I sell the following items:
– grills
– gas grils
– charcoal grills
– electric grills
– grill spare parts

I can’t seem to find any category that works for grills. Only grill accessories.

Thanks for your help.

Hello!

Thanks for your quick reply. Oh yes you were right, I updated the plugin right away. I could see the layout change a bit but I still can’t find an option to change the noindex tags.

Hello?

Also, can I activate product reviews on all products or do I have to go through them one by one?

Thank you again for your help!

1. OK do you still think I should add the _ga cookie manually? Or this overkill since I already have that opt out feature? Do I also need to edit something inside your plugin you say?

2. Thanks so much, I will check out the article!

So I was told that you can check all the cookies on your site with the google chrome developer tool so I did this. Here I could see the _ga cookie, but for me it actually shows 2 of them with the same name? Do you know why this could be?
_ga – value GA1.2.1895497027.1566886921
_ga – value GA1.2.697746040.1566299054

I can see that they have different values so maybe that can tell us something. Perhaps one is a “google tag manager”-cookie? Since I have that other plugin as well (https://sv.www.ads-software.com/plugins/duracelltomi-google-tag-manager/)

Thanks again ??

I should also add that there is a field in the plugin that says “Disable google analytics tracking ID when cookies consent not given” and you can put your Tracking ID. I have already done this, so perhaps I don’t need to manually add your cookie then? It already gets blocked?

I am very sorry if this is more than I should ask for, I just really want to solve this issue.

Thank you so much for getting back to me so quickly! That was very helpful! Thank you for clarifying.

You see I am using a plugin called Ultimate GDPR plugin. In it you can do a “detect cookies”-scan, which is what I have done. That’s where it detected 9 cookies, however your cookie “_ga” was not detected.

It does say it is not compatible with all plugins so I guess this might be why. But they also have a function where you can add the cookie manually. I want to make sure I have all my cookies listed in the plugin so that visitors can choose to opt out if they want to.

Is there any way you can offer me some help on what I need to add in the specific fields to add the cookie from your plugin? It doesn’t seem like I can send a screenshot here but the fields are: Title, ID, Service name, Script names, Cookie names, Type of cookie, First or third party, can be blocked (yes or no), session or persistent, expiry time, purpose, do you want to active this service.

I do understand this might be out of reach to ask, but the customer service at the other plugin told me that I have to contact customer service with the specific plugins so that’s what I am trying to do.

All the best ??

Thank you for your reply!

Yes I am still seeing the difference. Just to be clear, shippings costs and VAT are never included in Woocommerce right?

Thanks I will try that!
