Thanks!

Uh, I have no idea what an SEO guy would do; not really an SEO question. Just wondering if your plugin will work with that code or not. Am I supposed to be most concerned about your plugin affecting SEO here? I hope not! All I want it to be is functional. You know how to make your own plugin work, I would assume….so, which of the three make it ‘work’…? Couldn’t care less about SEO with this right now. ??

I only described two of the versions of code above. Did you not catch that? If that was hard to see then my apologies.

The other two are not examples, but elements; the way they are to be used is in their description.

So I suppose to get the point across properly/fully, I’ll post exactly what I meant instead of describing it. Here goes!

VERSION 1:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /?blackhole

User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php

VERSION 2:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php

User-agent: *
Disallow: /?blackhole

VERSION 3:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Disallow: /?blackhole
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php

I hope version 3 is still the best route, but I’m open to anything.

As to ‘question 2’….I looked at that link (thanks for that). And…uh after looking at that page on the Blackhole Pro site……are you saying that we need to disable cacheing entirely for my site to use this plugin with WP Rocket? It appears so. Don’t know if you’ve found a fix for a compatibility issue with WP Rocket — God I hope you have. Because I need caching. And I love WP Rocket.

Also: will the ‘cache helper’ plugin resolve any compatibility issues with WP Rocket? Or are we still told that it’s recommended to disable WP Rocket’s caching to use Blackhole for Bad Bots?

hi, was wondering the same thing — is this now fixed with cache plugins? specifically, well….WP Rocket?
