Hello @lovelyayo & @madd1974,

Once done, clear your website and browser’s cache and test the page again to see if the warning is removed.

Hope this helps.

Should i index it?

Hello @lovelyayo,

We recommend keeping the Author archives as NoIndex since it can have duplicate and thin content pages which can waste your website’s crawl budget.

You can have a look at this guide for a quick reference:

Hope this helps. Thank you.
