Putting Robots META tag settings in page 'options' tab

Post by docomo »

Hi,

I have been creating some templates for my site, and there are some area's I would like search engines not to index or follow links on.

e.g. I have a 'members-only' area of the site which requires a login. These will appear in my site navigation menu, however I would like search engines not to index these.

I know a way of doing this is to use the 'robots' meta-tag. Using one of the following:





I have manually put these into the markup for my template, however i thought it would be a neat feature to include these as settings on the 'options' tab when authoring a page. What do u think?

Cheers

If you look in the newer ver. root folder you will see a robot text file with this in it, you may be able to just add yours to it...
