<p><strong>Multisite search visibility indicator</strong> is a lightweight plugin that keeps you informed at a glance whether your site — or any site in your network — is accidentally blocking search engines.</p>
<p>WordPress has a built-in setting under <em>Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Reading</em> called “Search Engine Visibility”. When enabled, it adds a <code>noindex</code> directive that tells search engines not to index your site. This is easy to accidentally leave on after development, and notoriously hard to notice.</p>
<p>This plugin adds a persistent indicator to the WordPress toolbar so you never miss it again.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Toolbar indicator visible to administrators at all times (front-end and back-end)</li>
<li>Color-coded status: green when search engines are allowed, yellow/red when blocked</li>
<li><strong>Multisite ready</strong>: shows a per-site breakdown across your entire network</li>
<li>Each site in the dropdown links directly to its Reading Settings for a one-click fix</li>
<li><strong>Bulk management page</strong> (Multisite only): allow or discourage search engines across all — or selected — sites in a single action</li>
<li>Zero configuration required — install and it just works</li>
<li>No external dependencies, no tracking, no bloat</li>
</ul>
<h4>Multisite Bulk Management</h4>
<p>On a Multisite installation the plugin adds a <strong>Search Engine Visibility</strong> page under <em>Network Admin <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings</em>. From there you can:</p>
<ol>
<li>See every site in the network and its current visibility status</li>
<li>Select individual sites or all sites at once</li>
<li>Apply “Allow search engines” or “Discourage search engines” in one click</li>
</ol>
<h4>Who is this for?</h4>
<ul>
<li>Agencies managing WordPress Multisite networks</li>
<li>Developers who frequently spin up and hand off sites</li>
<li>Site owners who want a quick sanity check without digging through settings</li>
</ul>

<p>Have you ever launched a website with search engines blocked because you forgot to switch the privacy settings in your dev environment?</p>
<p>This plugin was developed to remind me to do that. Privacy Notice simply adds a notice in the admin bar if search engines are not enabled. This plugin helps you check yo’self before you wreck yo’self. If the label is orange, change it before you launch that site!</p>
<p>If you’ve turned search engines on, the notice goes away entirely. Never to bother you again if you haven’t deactivated.</p>
<p>There are no settings, and it doesn’t modify your database.</p>
<h3>Arbitrary section</h3>
<p>You may provide arbitrary sections, in the same format as the ones above.  This may be of use for extremely complicated<br />
plugins where more information needs to be conveyed that doesn’t fit into the categories of “description” or<br />
“installation.”  Arbitrary sections will be shown below the built-in sections outlined above.</p>
