Question
What are the options to prevent indexing of branding site deployed in Odin Automation?
Answer
You may put robots.txt
file to the root folder of branding webspace. From version 7 of OAP you may find it on the branding node in /var/www/brands/
. For version 6 a branding webspace may be located on a web hosting server.
In .htaccess
file located in the same webspace folder find the line:
RewriteEngine on
Then place following line right after it:
RewriteRule ^robots.txt$ robots.txt [L]
Please note, that directive above should be added exact after RewriteEngine
declaration. Otherwise these changes will be ignored. Also, this customization will be reverted upon applying any changed to brand via PCP.
Apache should be reloaded to immediately apply changes. Use the following command:
service httpd reload
Robots.txt content example:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /
