Thank you for your response. I appreciate your attention to this matter. However, the issue persists despite the pages not being included in the sitemap. These pages are part of my online course and are intentionally set to be excluded from search engines. Despite enabling the appropriate settings within Yoast SEO to exclude these pages, they still appear as 404 errors in Google Search Console.
These pages are situated behind a login environment and should not be accessible to search engines or indexed. Is there any further troubleshooting or steps I can take to ensure these pages remain hidden from search engine indexing?
Similarly, I’ve enabled the exclusion of symbols through Yoast SEO settings, but they continue to appear in Google search results.
Thank you,
Kim
