    Hi all,

    When looking at what the Google bots can view when crawling the page, it appears they cant see any of the text. I believe this is due to the use of Flash instead of HTML on XTheme.

    Is there a way of resolving this?

    Regards,

    Joe

    Hey Joe,

    X doesn’t use flash anywhere. Your WordPress setup might be blocking search engines. In Settings > Reading, ensure Search Engine Visibility is unchecked.

    Thanks.

    Hmm, thanks for the feedback. However when checking on google cache for instance, there is very little / no text that shows up.

    Any ideas?

    X is SEO ready however, you will need a plugin like Yoast SEO to display information for search engines. This is not an issue with X or themes in general. You might want to contact our trusted partners who caters X setup and customization needs. Please see https://community.theme.co/custom-development/

    Thanks.
