Events List View has noindex

Hi @mrwweb,

The noindex is added for Event view URLs not listing any events. However, you can use the below snippet to turn off the noindex when the calendar is set to today – even if there are no events.

add_filter( 
	'tec_events_seo_robots_meta_include',
	function( $do_include, $view ) {
		$context = $view->get_context();

		// If the shown view is for today, don't add the noindex
		if ( $context->get( 'start_date' ) === $context->get( 'today' ) ) {
			return false;
		}

		return $do_include;
	},
	10,
	2
);

Let us know how it goes, and if you have any questions.

Thank you,
Erica

Thanks for the information, Erica. I very much understand and appreciate why other event views are noindex’ed when there are no events, but the primary /events/ page seems like it shouldn’t be. My $0.02.

Thanks for the snippet. I’ll probably look to tweak it a bit further to make sure it’s only targeting the primary list view.
