Randomized content - Is the source crawlable?

[gunesinan]

Hi,

I have a question regarding creating randomized looper providers, which is elaborated in this thread:

A way to randomize or rotate columns

is this possible in pro theme? [Screenshot 2024-05-15 at 7.53.28 PM] id like to setup 20 of these and have them randomly rotate in the series of six https://verobeach.marketing/news/home/ - example

I am wondering if search engines can crawl the source file (say an ACF repeater) that creates the random content. The reason that I am asking is, if they can, this approach can have negative impacts on the spam spore of the page.

My guess is they cannot crawl, but just want to ask before making a mistake.

Thanks

Hello Gunes,

Only the page source code is crawlable. The Looper Provider that provides the content items is not crawlable. If you use caching, the cache page is the one saved by the bots.

Cheers.
