Hi,

I guess so. I'm using my own custom login. Is there any way to remove ?foro=signin URL variable?

thanks

@acornavi,

If you add this part of the URL it opens login form, so the whole URL becomes the Login page and it doesn't need to be indexed. If you remove that part you'll see the original topic which doesn't have "noindex" meta tag and is ready for indexing.

May I ask what produces ?foro=signin ? What is the condition that WPForo adds that to a URL? I'd like to understand so that I can proceed.

@acornavi,

I'm sorry but this is the 3rd time we try to integrate it, but after each update of RankMath people report some issues. So i this this is a site specific issue and we have nothing to do here.

I recommend you open your forum so when we call a topic we could see the real content instead of a login page. Then delete all caches.

Also, deactivate all other plugins and test it again. Make sure you are testing the correct topic url: https://forum.biotherapy.asia/community/biotherapy-certification/module-a-video-practice-for-certification/

Not the one with ?foro=signin.

I checked. IN case I'm logged in there is no NOINDEX. Hw to change that? Integration with RankMath need some revamping.

I did a test by using PHP snippet to remove RankMath from WPForo pages. It works.

This is the WPForo SEO when RankMath is enabled.

This is WPForo SEO when RankMath is disabled.

This is WPForo SEO when RankMath is disabled and the snippet that removes RankMath from WPForo pages is disabled too.

Only forum sitemap is created but can't open it. There is no topic sitemap created by WPForo.

I noticed that only if I'm logged in I can see the sitemaps created by the WPForo.

Please check with your team RankMath and WPForo compatibility because something is not right. Name and description meta is not right. NAME should be the name of the post and DESCRIPTION should be topis content.

Would be great if the integration with a RankMath is simeless because it is very popular and good SEO plugin.

Thanks.

@acornavi,

The noindex is correct, if you have ?foro=signin GET requests in URL. Just check simple topic and forum pages, there should not be noindex.

What function WPForo use to render SEO meta to substitute this line of code

add_action( 'wp_head', '_wp_render_title_tag', 2 );

with WPForo SEO functions.

Also, how to remove NOINDEX generated by WPForo.

Thank you

I found this code. Is this ok to remove all RankMath META data from the pages with WPForo (/community)?

is_page function needs proper page ID, it is clear.


add_action( 'wp_head', function(){
	if( is_page('432')) {
		remove_all_actions( 'rank_math/head' );
		add_action( 'wp_head', '_wp_render_title_tag', 2 );
	}
}, 1 );
