Merged Kunena Latest 2.0.1 inserts noindex meta tag

Thanks for the link. Sorry I missed that topic when searching. No the fix suggested does not work for me.
Are you confirming a bug? I will leave the Module Latest unpublished for now.

I had the same issue and sorted it by editing

/components/com_kunena/views/topics/view.html.php

and changing the noindex to index.

$this->document->setMetadata ( 'robots', 'noindex, follow' );
to
$this->document->setMetadata ( 'robots', 'index, follow' );

I can then republish the latest module and the meta is correct

cheers

I think there should be

$this->document->setMetadata ( '$name', '$content', '$http-equiv' );

but I removed this line and it works

I do not know why it is permanently, I can not change the access for robots in the articles
$this->document->setMetadata ( 'robots', 'noindex, follow' );

The noindex meta robots is for "recent topics" page. With my proposed code I try to keep this behavior intact without affecting other joomla pages.

The same problem on my site. I unpublished the modul. Waiting for a new version.

Open: joomla_site/components/com_kunena/views/topics/view.html.php
Change line 315 from:

Code:

$this->document->setMetadata ( 'robots', 'noindex, follow' );

To

Code:

//check if we are in kunena latest topics page if(JRequest::getCmd('option','') == 'com_kunena' && JRequest::getCmd('view','') == 'topics'){ $this->document->setMetadata ( 'robots', 'noindex, follow' ); }

Only put this on line 315?

$this->document->setMetadata ( 'robots', 'noindex, follow' ); are also in lines 346 and 377.

This would be a simpler solution. This solves the problem? This can cause a problem with Kunena in Joomla or Google indexing?

I've lost half the visits to my website during this month.

Why?

I updated Kunena 1.7 to kunena 2.01. I updated kunena latest too. Big mistake.. Kunena latest module added the tag "noindex" to all the pages where the module was seen.

I can understand bugs. But I think this kind of mistake is not acceptable.

It took me 15 days to find the problem in my website. During this time, most of the pages of my forum have dissapear from google results, and I've lost half the incomes.

I had pages in the first page of google results for my keywords, that now have completely dissapear.

Take care fellows.

After update to version 2.0.2 tag <meta name = "robots" is no longer showing.

Someone with the same problem?
