XF 2.2 Does XF has a default robots.txt file?

[KhanTastic]

Hi friends,

Recently I got so much spam on my XF forum, I updated it to the latest version just now and everything looks fine. I deleted all the spamming posts and blocked the spam users. I just would like to know if XF has any default robots.txt file as I can not see in my root folder and I just created one by seeing the codes from a website in google search engine. I am not sure if my robots.txt is correct or not.
Because my forum is not indexing at all in search engine, the posts are not getting any views. I am thinking maybe my robots.txt is not good and blocking search engine from crawling my site.

I would appreciate if someone can confirm to me if XF really has a robots.txt file by default, if it has then can you paste the codes here for me so that I can replace it on my robots.txt file. Or should I totally get rid of robots.txt file which I created, does XF really need that robots.txt file?

Thank you so much in advance, awaiting yours.

Best regards,
Cheers!

Make sure you update it to reflect where your site is installed, removing or replacing community for example.
