Upgrade NowFrequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Block AI Crawlers
Unfortunately, no. However, it does tell bots that your site shouldn't be used for future datasets.
The plugin adds directives to the robots.txt file to tell AI crawlers that they shouldn't index your site. It also adds the noai meta tag to your site's header to do the same.
I try to keep up with new crawlers and update the block list regularly.
Yes! please share suggestions on the forums or on GitHub.
If you have a physical robots.txt file on your web server, you won't be able to activate this plugin. The plugin only works when using WordPress' built-in virtual robots.txt.
It should in theory. It just appends the directives to the robots.txt file.
No. Search engines follow different robots.txt rules.
