Post "tags" getting indexed even when set to noindex

[jnlinn]

I am using the most recent version of WordPress and Pro. I also use Yoast for SEO.

For years, I have had the Post “Tags” setting to “noindex” in Yoast which worked correctly.

However, with the recent updates to Pro, the noindex setting is being ignored for Tags. Here is an example:

The “noindex” setting for Pages works correctly.

Please advise how I can fix this issue for Tags.

Best regards

Hi @jnlinn,

Thanks for reaching out.
I have checked your website and found the section you mentioned here. I would suggest you activate any default theme and check if that problem still exists. If that exists, it might be something else is the reason. If that does not exist, and only appears when the Pro is activated, please provide login credentials for your site in a secure note to examine it further, including:

– WordPress Site URL & Login URL
– WordPress Admin username/password

To create a secure note, click the key icon underneath any of your posts.

Thanks
