Plugin caused issues with Google listings

  • Hi,

    If you google “site:https://weedlist.ca” this will give you a list of all pages indexed in google.

    With the cloaked plugin, it has caused all listed product pages in Google to redirect to the affiliate sites rather than the actual page on my website.

    To see what I mean click on any products associated with weedlist.ca listed in Google.

    Is there any way of fixing this without causing 404 errors on my listings?

    Thanks,

    Dan

    Hi

    What do you have for “Status Code” on this page WordPress Admin Area > Settings > WC Cloak Links?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Thanks for the quick reply.

    Status Code is “302 Found/Temporary Redirect”.

    What do you suggest?

    I think 301 would be more appropriate because these aren’t temporary redirects… they are permanent.

    Thanks for your help!

    I made the switch. I’ll keep an eye on it over the next update to see if it affects my search listings.

    Cheers!

    Cool, keep me posted.

    Hey, weedlist. Good catch. I checked your site links using site:https://weedlist.ca and it appears that the 301 redirect did not solve your problem. Bummer. I’d like to see a solution for this. But honestly I don’t think there could be a solution since google is merely listing your link and you have it set to be redirected. It’s not actually a page on your site.
