I discovered that Google has stopped indexing my site, all pages and posts are about 2000+ pages, threads and posts not index

Even this sitemap is not google can not find and index it.

Am having the following error when I check on Google Console

No: 'noindex' detected in 'X-Robots-Tag' HTTP header
Page cannot be indexed: Excluded by ‘noindex’ tag

Please see some attachments below and please help me get my site to start being indexed on Google, this is killing my business and not so cool. Help needed, please

See Attachement screenshort

Oh, my site is still not been index, all post over 2000+ post and pages not indexed, help needed'
I have rebuild the sitemap. so let me give Google console few hours or days to check on it again

Thanks to everyone following

Some pages seems to be getting index now, about 8 pages are showing now, out of 2000+ pages.

Google can take up to a couple weeks to update indexing after changes are made to a site. You literally made some changes barely 12 hours ago.

What have you done to solve the problem? You got various hints and offers:

Did you check wether the pages do have the "noindex" tag as google claims?

Did you do this:
Put one of the threads into the inspector in Google Search Console.

Did you make use of generous offer by @MentaL ?

What was the outcome of all these things?

Is there a problem at all? Indexing is some times more some times less intensive and if in your forum is information that Google does not consider relevant it will not index it. The more if the same information is available elsewhere.

It is to a degree normal that only parts of your pages are indexed. I.e. for my forum (which has mostly pretty exclusive content not available elsewhere) it looks like that:

The total number of pages on my forum did not shrink - for some reason google "forgot" about some pages, no idea why. Also, I purpusfully blocked parts of my forum from being indexed, so the reasons look like that:
Bildschirm­foto 2024-11-22 um 19.38.42.webp

So most are forwarders (typical on other XF installations as well) and a lot have been blocked via robots.txt.

How does this look for your forum?

If you do not provide info nobody will be able to help you.

It was frustrating, not getting index for over thousands of post and thread with high quality. We have done everything we can to get indexed from good and at least have our post, article, thread etc show up on Google SERP. For months now. It seems that is not happening

Our plan now is to just move on. start new installation in any new website name and hosting. leaving everything we have done in our 3 years unsuccessful journey


Hopefully, we will get index in our new journey. Is sad and heart breaking. But we can't give up yet.


Thanks for all
