I don’t know why robots.txt file seems different in different browsers and incognito even though it is static in my site. This has led to Googlebot seeing my old version of robots.txt which is blocking the whole site. I have no idea what is going on.

My site is disallowed even though the robots.txt is changed. This plugin is messy and I have lost 70% of my earnings

After rolling back to the previous version and then again updating to the newer version. It is confirmed that it is indeed the AIOSEO plugin that added this rule. I just tried and observed this now by updating the plugin and the rule was added automatically as my robots.txt was enabled in the feature manager. My site isn’t able to recover. 70% of my earnings lost this month and google webmaster is not allowing my sitemap to be indexed even though I have changed the robots.txt 15 days ago. Good damage is done to the site??.

The older version which Google webmaster saw on 27th Feb is this:

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

Sitemap: https://www.xtremegaminerd.com/sitemap.xml
Sitemap: https://www.xtremegaminerd.com/sitemap.rss

The newer version is this

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

Sitemap: https://www.xtremegaminerd.com/sitemap.xml

As you can see the previous version was when the plugin was updated and now the “Disallow: /” is no longer there which was blocking the URLs from being indexed.

I hope it should be fine within a few days now but the problem is definitely in the plugin as it is no coincidence that the robots.txt changed just after updating to the newer version.

I don’t know what’s the problem at your side but mine got fixed. The problem was due to a silly thing which was my internet. All other sites were opening but somehow not my dashboard. I upgraded to a faster plan and then it started opening fully but I need to refresh frequently to fully load the admin pages. The site however doesn’t have any problem in loading.

Can you please tell me how to do it?

Yes. Same problem

I have tried these things already. I have talked to godaddy experts several times and they say it’s a fault from my side and I think they may be correct because it’s opening on two of my friends pc fine.

Bro same problem here for past 5 days. I am very must frustrated. But I can suggest you do something. Clear all the cache and cookies of your browser or try in incognito mode.

I don’t have any data . that not the problem , but please help me to change the domain from nadeemtech.com to weightdrain.com

it’s not helping me . maybe i should uninstall wordpress and then make a site at localhost and upload it
