Hi,

For each page you can check Noindex & Nofollow in the properties. I then assumed that if this was not checked, the page would be on index follow, but this is not the case. How can I switch the entire website to index follow (except checkout etc, but Noindex & Nofollow is already checked there)?

Hi Caro

You can only do that in the template master template by adding it to the head section.

Do you really think it is nescesarry to do this explicitly?

I cannot see that recommendation in i.e. Google docs: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/robots-meta-tag

And specifically it is mentioned that it is not needed: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/special-tags

Also see this reddit topic on this answered by John Mueller from Google:
