How can I set up noindex, follow for sub categories? I have noindex, nofollow set up by adding the cat ids in html _ header in this format
<?php if (defined('ROBOTS_PAGES_TO_SKIP') && in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",constant('ROBOTS_PAGES_TO_SKIP'))) || $current_page_base=='down_for_maintenance' || in_array($cPath, array('221_706','221_237')) ) { ?>
<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow" />
I have left the main brand category to be indexed, and tried this on categories that are duplicated. Google no longer sees any keywords in what googlebot sees in webmaster tools.
That being said I want the duplicate categories followed but not indexed. The product that it follows through to is in the brand name category that i am fully indexing anyway. This is due to a (bug or intentional workings) of the ultimate seo url add on that only ever renders the product in the master category.
My setup is a little different I have a category - then a subcategory (which is the product) --then a sub-sub category (which is the particular color of the product)
I have my name brand categories in the document categories sidebox, so I would think I could make a template change to the categories that would not prevent full indexing of the name brand categories that I want indexed?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
