I am making an attempt to take away the creator pages in addition to the hyperlinks to the creator pages on my wordpress web site powered by Divi.
First, I disabled creator archives and pages with the Yoast plugin.
Then, I used a brief CSS snippet to disable the mouse pointer. It is working accurately, however the balise was nonetheless current. Which means, the search engine bots had been getting a 301 redirect when requesting the doc.
So, I requested some guys on a Divi discussion board and so they supplied me the next snippet
<script>
jQuery(perform($){
$(".author a").attr("href", "#");
});
</script>
So, I added it. Nonetheless, there was nonetheless a hyperlink looping on the identical web page. If I can see it within the supply code, the googlebot can too.
And I do not need it to waste its ressources on looping on the identical web page.
So, then I attempted this snippet:
<script>
jQuery(perform($){
$(".author a").removeAttr("href");
});
</script>
Whereas within the supply code it appears "ok", once I crawl the web site with Screaming Frog, it nonetheless finds many /creator/ pages. However once I discover the supply code of the "origin" pages, I do not discover any hyperlink containing /creator/ or the creator titleā¦ (I flushed out the cache already)
I have been spending hours on this matter already. I am open to any thought.
Cheers!
