Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Fewer Tags Free

So you have a site with a lot of tags that don't add any value? Yes, you can safely add this plugin. It will redirect the useless tag pages to your site's homepage.

No, you should not noindex your tag pages. If your tag pages have more than 10 posts in them, they are valuable ways of getting your site crawled and of combining related content. There's no reason to noindex those pages at that point. What you could (and should) do is add descriptions to those tag pages.

You can report security bugs through the Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program. The Patchstack team help validate, triage and handle any security vulnerabilities. Report a security vulnerability.

Yes, that's why we created Fewer Tags Pro!
