How do I hide my Community profile from google?

Problem reported by Rowland Kimber 10 years ago

Should be simple, but I can't see how to do it

Hi Rowland,

Unfortunately the simple answer is there is no option to do this, either as a user or an admin user. I will forward on to our development team to investigate and resolve.

Hi John,

Thank you for the reply on a weekend :)

This is very disappointing news! Please do get on this, it's not cool.

People search my name for work purposes and I'd prefer they see my web site, rather than whether or not Yodlee is working, ha.

Keep me posted.

Yep sorry Rowland! Our devs should be able to resolve this quickly next week - hopefully they can also add an option to the community settings to allow other customers to do this themselves if they wanted to.

Did this go live? I can't find the option anywhere..?

Nope, this haven't been resolved..

John Fouracre can you get your chaps on this please!

Hi Rowland,

Sorry about the delay. I regret to report that this problem has been pushed back by our development team temporarily, but it is still on our list of things to do. We understand your concerns to limit your community profile visibility on the Google search engine for reasons mentioned above and as a result will pursue this in our capacity as support agents to see that it is addressed by our development team ASAP.

I apologise ineffably for the severe inconvenience this may cause you.

Regards,

Shaz

Hi Rowland,

You can now update your profile settings and specify Not Indexed in order to fix this.

Note that it may take a day or two for Google to catch up.

Thanks,
