<h4>This plugin needs more documentation!</h4>
<p>You can edit your robots.txt and add remote content to it.<br />
E.g. you have several sites and want to use a centralized robots.txt.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Include or exclude WordPress’ own robots.txt (core function)</li>
<li>Include or exclude plugins – e.g. sitemap plugins – output to robots.txt (filter output)</li>
<li>Include or exclude a remote text file (the common part)</li>
<li>Include or exclude custom records from the settings page (the site specific part)</li>
</ul>
<h4>Where is robot.txt?</h4>
<p>WordPress handles robots.txt as a virtual URL – just the same way as posts and pages.</p>
<p>So when you browse to <code>https://example.com/robots.txt</code> WordPress generates robots.txt on the fly.</p>
<h4>TODO</h4>
<ul>
<li>add more description here</li>
<li>add a video too</li>
<li>add an admin notice for subdir installs (robots.txt is useless in a subdir)</li>
<li>‘At least one “Disallow” field must be present in the robots.txt file.’ – check for that</li>
</ul>
<h4>Links</h4>
<p>Development of this plugin goes on on <a href="https://github.com/szepeviktor/multipart-robotstxt-editor" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub</a>.</p>

<p>This plugin adds the necessary lines to the virtual robots.txt file that WordPress creates automagically to block to block Feeds and Comments resources.</p>
<h4>What ideas is this plugin based on?</h4>
<p>None. We needed a fast solution to add these lines to the robots.txt file and this was the solution we coded.</p>
<h4>What is the robots.txt file?</h4>
<p>The robots.txt file is a plain text file located at the root folder of a domain (or subdomain) which tells web crawlers (like Googlebot) what parts of the website they should access and index.</p>
<p>The first thing a search engine crawler looks at when it is visiting a page is the robots.txt file and it controls how search engine spiders see and interact with the web pages.</p>
