blackhole page is indexed, what to do?

Glad to help. Is the site running any cache plugins? Specifically any sort of *page caching* will break Blackhole plugin (as well as any other plugins that rely on dynamic PHP functionality).

Yes. I think that Siteground Plugin is using Dynamic PHP caching.
So what should I do now?

I have deactivated the Blackhole plugin, for instance.
Google is indexing more and more blackhole pages.

Okay so best advice is to deactivate and remove the plugin will solve the issue on the plugin side, and also make sure to clear/reset/empty the cache so it can rebuild site content.

Thank you very much.
So there is no way to use your plugin? When there is a default caching system at the server side? (Dynamic cache provided by the host service Siteground)

Yeah right now any sort of page caching effectively disables the plugin. Just how page caching works. But I am working on a solution, not sure when it will be available though. Best advice for now is to just deactivate/remove and let the serps refresh over time.

Hi @pingsunday, just wanted to follow up with this. It’s been awhile with no reply, so I hope the issue is resolved? Or if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know. Thank you.

Hi Jeff.
Yes, I have disabled and uninstalled the plugin.

Okay thanks. I will go ahead and mark this thread as resolved. Feel free to post again with any further questions or feedback.
