If they aren't able to read them then they just wont be indexed. Everything else on the site will and that is what is important.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/small-thing-no-index-tag-for-category-pages-wordpress-seo-plugin#post-98967 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 21:20:46 +0000 Boris 98967@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>nope, none of the xml files are pointing to them.<br /> The only ones that are a little bit untypical are those that point to pages like the contact form or the archives.</p> <p>Dou you think it is a disadvantage at all, to have theses errors mit google?</p> <p>Best Boris </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/small-thing-no-index-tag-for-category-pages-wordpress-seo-plugin#post-98914 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 16:39:19 +0000 Devin 98914@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I honestly have no idea. If your sitemap xml pointed to those places then perhaps that is how and why.</p> <p>There should be no reason for the spider to crawl them from the content it gets from the theme files. Eg, there is nothing in the generated content pointing to framework files or that individual gif. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/small-thing-no-index-tag-for-category-pages-wordpress-seo-plugin#post-98910 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 16:35:38 +0000 Boris 98910@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Devin,</p> <p>thanks for explaining. I already understood that. ;-) The question is: Why is google trying to reach those files?<br /> The errors are explained above. So if you would like to have a look..? See 2) and 3) I can try Disallow: /wp-content/ but this will not solve the problem I guess.</p> <p>Someting must point to those two locartions, otherwise google would not try to look it up, i figure.</p> <p>Best Boris </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/small-thing-no-index-tag-for-category-pages-wordpress-seo-plugin#post-98908 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 16:29:51 +0000 Devin 98908@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I'm not sure how best to explain it but the files that run the theme don't need to be read by google. They don't really have any front facing code or user interface so it doesn't make any sense for them to be read. </p> <p>I don't know what error you are seeing so I'm not able to comment specifically on what the specific cause for it is.</p> <p>You can also add:<br /> <code>Disallow: /wp-content/</code></p> <p>To your robots file as again, there isn't any content in your theme files that needs to be searchable by google (or any other search engine). </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/small-thing-no-index-tag-for-category-pages-wordpress-seo-plugin#post-98902 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 16:06:16 +0000 Boris 98902@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Devin,</p> <p>so I made the change. The no-index, follow problem is solved.</p> <p>The other errors still appear.<br /> Even though you are saying, that it doesn't matter: Nobody likes errors in the webmastertools, I guess.<br /> So can you say something to issue 2, and 3, maybe? That would be great for my learnings and I would love to just understand what's going on! ;-)</p> <p>Best Boris </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/small-thing-no-index-tag-for-category-pages-wordpress-seo-plugin#post-98852 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:06:33 +0000 Devin 98852@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Boris,</p> <p>Google has no need to crawl any of the theme files or wordpress admin files so your robots.txt is fine.</p> <p>You can manually submit sitemaps to google if they aren't getting index by help of the plugin properly <a href="http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=34657" rel="nofollow">http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=34657</a></p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/small-thing-no-index-tag-for-category-pages-wordpress-seo-plugin#post-98846 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 12:05:05 +0000 Boris 98846@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I am having the same problem and will try the solution mentioned above, too.</p> <p>But have a few things to add to this:</p> <p>1) Those sitemaps are not beeing indexed by google:<br /> post_tag-sitemap.xml<br /> and<br /> category-sitemap.xml</p> <p>how do I solve this?

It seems to be hard coded in the head via the theme not to index categories or portfolio categories? I use WordPress SEO by Yoast but cannot seem to change the "no index" to "index" for categories or portfolio category pages - just checking if this is hard-coded into the theme files (never seen this with other themes) and if so how do I change it? On each of the category pages the following appears - &lt;meta name="robots" content="noindex, follow" /&gt;</p> <p>Here is a sample page - <a href="http://hunterjacobs.com.au/category/testimonials/" rel="nofollow">http://hunterjacobs.com.au/category/testimonials/</a> - I've deleted WordPress SEO plugin thinking it was screwing with things but still to no avail. The 'no index' meta remains with or without the plugin installed.</p> <p>Something of note that may be related: When I install WordPress SEO on any of your themes I get a warning that says "Cannot modify head" - nothing breaks but wondering if this is related to not being able to change the no index meta.</p> <p>Thanks in advance:) </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/view-portfolio-entries-based-on-tags#post-76611 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 18:56:55 +0000 Nick 76611@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Use this plugin to attach the image to the new taxonomy, I think it still works, if not there are instructions, not that difficult. <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/taxonomy-images/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/taxonomy-images/</a> Good luck!</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/view-portfolio-entries-based-on-tags#post-76589 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 16:51:57 +0000 OttoRobba 76589@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Quick question, when I click one of these new, shiny, portfolio-only tags, is there a way to make it show thumbnails? Right now I get the post content instead of a thumbnail view like when you click a portfolio category.

Portfolio items have their own categories. Tags aren't unique to portfolio items but shared with the blog posts.</p> <p>A cool use for the tags would be linking them to posts, so if u put a tag 'waffle iron' on a blog post, you can have a waffle iron portfolio with that tag linking to all waffle iron posts so they are interlinked. Good SEO value! </p> <p>You need to make a completely separate taxonomy calling it something like Tags2 if you want to have tags only shared between portfolio items.</p> <pre><code>// registration code for portfolio-tags taxonomy function register_portfolio_tags_tax() { $labels = array( &#39;name&#39; =&gt; _x( &#39;Portfolio Tags&#39;, &#39;taxonomy general name&#39; ), &#39;singular_name&#39; =&gt; _x( &#39;Portfolio Tag&#39;, &#39;taxonomy singular name&#39; ), &#39;add_new&#39; =&gt; _x( &#39;Add New Portfolio Tag&#39;, &#39;Portfolio Tag&#39;), &#39;add_new_item&#39; =&gt; __( &#39;Add New Portfolio Tag&#39; ), &#39;edit_item&#39; =&gt; __( &#39;Edit Portfolio Tag&#39; ), &#39;new_item&#39; =&gt; __( &#39;New Portfolio Tag&#39; ), &#39;view_item&#39; =&gt; __( &#39;View Portfolio Tag&#39; ), &#39;search_items&#39; =&gt; __( &#39;Search Portfolio Tags&#39; ), &#39;not_found&#39; =&gt; __( &#39;No Portfolio Tag found&#39; ), &#39;not_found_in_trash&#39; =&gt; __( &#39;No Portfolio Tag found in Trash&#39; ), ); $pages = array(&#39;portfolio&#39;); $args = array( &#39;labels&#39; =&gt; $labels, &#39;singular_label&#39; =&gt; __(&#39;Portfolio Tag&#39;), &#39;public&#39; =&gt; true, &#39;show_ui&#39; =&gt; true, &#39;hierarchical&#39; =&gt; false, &#39;show_tagcloud&#39; =&gt; true, &#39;show_in_nav_menus&#39; =&gt; true, &#39;rewrite&#39; =&gt; array(&#39;slug&#39; =&gt; &#39;portfolio-tag&#39;, &#39;with_front&#39; =&gt; false ), ); register_taxonomy(&#39;portfolio-tags&#39;, $pages, $args); } add_action(&#39;init&#39;, &#39;register_portfolio_tags_tax&#39;);</code></pre> <p>You can try something like this. Drop it please into your functions.php, and see if you have a new taxonomy in portfolio</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/view-portfolio-entries-based-on-tags#post-76356 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 02:44:43 +0000 OttoRobba 76356@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Sounds good, thanks Devin. :) </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/view-portfolio-entries-based-on-tags#post-76234 Mon, 17 Sep 2012 15:05:05 +0000 Devin 76234@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey Otto,</p> <p>I'm not sure what else could be going on.

Haven't changed any arrays or anything like that, only the echo text, as you saw. I can revert it to vanilla Choices nomenclature but I assure you, the problem will still be there.</p> <p>Reverted it to entirely vanilla Choices, only modification whatsoever is to display tags, as seen on Dude's topic.<br /> No plugins, nothing. Any clue? :( </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/view-portfolio-entries-based-on-tags#post-75984 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 18:11:31 +0000 Devin 75984@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Otto,</p> <p>Have you changed anything else in the custom post type portfolio? I see that you changed the name that appears in Wordpress to Lessons and wordpress is pretty sensitive to names when it comes to custom post types. So if you've changed anything else...it could be causing the theme to grab the incorrect loop for the archive.</p> <p>If you want to have a different custom post type, I would suggest just creating a new one from scratch as I really can't even say without some major digging what other conflicts there might be to modifying the portfolio post type. Its pretty ingrained in the framework at this point.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/view-portfolio-entries-based-on-tags#post-75974 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 17:34:18 +0000 Ismael 75974@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Let me tag this thread again to Devin. :)</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/view-portfolio-entries-based-on-tags#post-75832 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 00:55:22 +0000 OttoRobba 75832@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Tried without any plugins, no dice, still says that nothing has been found. Created the Temporary Admin account and sent you the information for it in an e-mail.</p> <p>Thanks Devin :)</p> <p>--Otto </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/view-portfolio-entries-based-on-tags#post-75799 Thu, 13 Sep 2012 18:24:18 +0000 Devin 75799@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Very strange, I double checked and I did enable it for Choices specifically. The code is just a general way of adding support for tags for custom post types so it really should work without issue for any kind of custom post type.</p> <p>Make sure wordpress is updated and that there aren't any other plugins installed and active. Just in case something is causing a conflict with the theme.</p> <p>If you can also create a temporary admin account for me I'll log in and see if I can spot anything in the wordpress backend that might be causing the tags not to work properly.</p> <p>You can send the information to my email at DevinVinson (at) gmail.com.

It was originally posted as the solution for the theme coherence, link is in the first post. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/view-portfolio-entries-based-on-tags#post-75441 Tue, 11 Sep 2012 17:27:42 +0000 Devin 75441@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi OttoRobba,</p> <p>I'm not sure whats going on as I just went through and tested it and didn't have any issue with pulling up an archive with the tag links.</p> <p>My only guess is that perhaps your permalinks are not configured correctly or that there is something else causing a conflict with the proper output of it. You can try changing your permalink settings to default and try it again, if it works then you can try the troubleshooting tips from the Wordpress codex here: <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Fixing_Permalink_Problems" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Fixing_Permalink_Problems</a></p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/view-portfolio-entries-based-on-tags#post-75221 Mon, 10 Sep 2012 16:24:04 +0000 OttoRobba 75221@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi there.</p> <p>I have modified the 'Choices' theme to show tags on portfolio entries, like Dude shows here: <a href="http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/add-tags-for-portfolio-posts" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/add-tags-for-portfolio-posts</a></p> <p>The problem, however, is that clicking any of those tags doesn't return any results.<br /> I always get a 'Tag Archive: Nothing Found' page.<br /> Is there a way - be it a plugin or a theme modification - to correct this behaviour? </p>
