Can anyone tell me where these URLs are coming from?

  • Hello all, been using WooCommerce for a while now having came from Prestashop and so far loving it !!.

    I had messed around with various plugins and finally got to where I consider is perfect for us. However, I think I may have been left with some strange URLs from possibly a review module that I can’t figure out how to remove.

    The URLs that are being picked up by Google are like …
    https://tillyoak.co.uk/?revws-custom-1-page-size=1&revws-custom-1-page=8?revws-custom-1-page-size=1&revws-custom-1-page=8
    https://tillyoak.co.uk/?revws-custom-1-page-size=1&revws-custom-1-page=34

    I had removed the review modules some time ago and there doesn’t appear to be anything in the database that looks similar but each time I try and force Google to drop these search results they do an auto check and tell me these URLs are still being published on our site but I just cannot for the life of me work out how or where they can be coming from.

    The biggest issue is that they are very prominent in the search results for our site and obviously do nothing other than lead searches to our home page, they look ugly as well.

    If anyone can hazard a guess as to how to find and remove them I’d be most grateful ??

    Hi there,

    This isn’t something that WooCommerce generates specifically (it doesn’t have any code related to revws. Instead, you’d need to get in touch with the developers of that reviews plugin to take a closer look at what’s happening. It might also be wortwhile reviewing any SEO plugins on your site to check whether they’re automatically generating those sitemap links.

    Hi RK and thanks for the reply, I realise it wasn’t woo but was just wondering if anyone had any idea which plugin may have been the culprit as I’ve drawn a blank myself where these URLs are coming from, I’ve checked all-in-one SEO sitemaps etc and nothing there. I even re-installed the plugins I had before and checked dBASE, etc but nothing obvious at all.

    I guess I’ll likely have to try installing the review plugins I think I may have had installed before and go through them with fine tooth comb, but with nothing in the dBASE it really is confusing me where these URLs are coming from and moreso that Google are reporting them as live and current !!

    If I find anything else I’ll try and report back just in case anyone else runs into this issue.

    All best
    Marko
