Using Connectors to Restrict Search Engine Indexing

Modified on Tue, 9 Dec at 11:54 AM

To prevent a page from being indexed by Google or other search engines, a script may be added using Connectors.

This script can be added directly within an individual hub if you want to hide a page on a specific website, or it can be added through Connectors within Organization Groups if you’d like to apply it across all sites or a specific group of websites (see: Adding External Scripts with DA Connectors for details).

"noindex" JavaScript

<script> 
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function () {
if (XXX) {
        var meta = document.createElement("meta");
        meta.name = "robots";
        meta.content = "noindex";
        document.head.appendChild(meta);
    }
});
</script>

An "if" statement must be added to the script to specify the page(s) you'd like to select.

Example: Selecting by page path

<script>
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function () {
if (window.location.pathname === "/your-page-url") {
        var meta = document.createElement("meta");
        meta.name = "robots";
        meta.content = "noindex";
        document.head.appendChild(meta);
    }
});
</script>

Replace "/your-page-url" with the page’s path (eg. "/legal") to select all and apply the "noindex" to pages that would end in "/legal".
