Noindex Post Type

    How would I go about excluding a particular post type from the sitemap and also from being indexed by Google? I also want to exclude the SEO box. These are custom post types defined by a plugin so I can’t edit them.

    Hi @monkeypress,

    In the past two years TSF moved to supporting as much as possible automatically ??

    Now, to revert that process, I believe these filters should do the trick (untested!):

    //* This removes SEO metabox, SEO Bar and sitemap support.
add_filter( 'the_seo_framework_supported_post_type', function( $post_type, $evaluated_post_type = '' ) {
	
	if ( 'my_post_type' === $evaluated_post_type ) {
		return false;
	}

	return $post_type;
}, 10, 2 );
    //* This adds noindex on the post type pages
add_filter( 'the_seo_framework_robots_meta_array', function( $meta = array() ) {

	if ( 'my_post_type' === get_post_type() ) {
		$meta['noindex'] = 'noindex';
	}

	return $meta;
}, 10, 1 );

    You can add that to your theme’s functions.php file or a custom plugin. Do not forget to change “my_post_type” to your post type name ??

    @monkeypress No problem!

    Note: the second code block had a missing ' (thus fatal error), I just fixed that. ??
