After installation you can find “Noindex by path” option in the main menu. This allows you to simply add relative paths 
you need to exclude from SERPs. Add a path (including slashes from begging and the end of the string) and save the 
changes. Since this plugin is called to be “simple” you can add only one path at once, but the process is smooth 
and easy.
Plugin will add “noindex” meta tag which is an instruction for search engines that this particular page should not be indexed.

Simple SEO Noindex Toggle gives you precise, per-content control over which posts and pages are indexed by search engines — without the overhead of a full SEO plugin suite.
In one click, you can exclude any post or page from search engine indexes using the standard <code><meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow"></code> tag. Every feature is built around a clean admin UI, WordPress coding standards, and zero unnecessary dependencies.
<h3>How to Verify the Plugin Is Working</h3>
There are three ways to confirm the noindex tag is active on the frontend:
Method 1 — Built-in Tag Verifier (recommended)
<ol>
<li>Enable the Noindex toggle on a published post and save.</li>
<li>In the editor, click Verify Tag in Source in the SEO Settings meta box.</li>
<li>A green ✓ Confirmed result appears, showing the exact tag found in the live page source.</li>
</ol>
Method 2 — View Page Source
<ol>
<li>Visit the published post on the frontend.</li>
<li>Right-click → View Page Source (or press <code>Ctrl+U</code> / <code>Cmd+U</code>).</li>
<li>Press <code>Ctrl+F</code> and search for <code>noindex</code>.</li>
<li>The tag <code><meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow" /></code> appears near the top of <code><head></code>.</li>
</ol>
Method 3 — Google Search Console
<ol>
<li>Open URL Inspection in Google Search Console.</li>
<li>Paste the post URL and click Test Live URL.</li>
<li>Under Page Indexing, Google reports: “Page is not indexed — noindex tag detected”.</li>
<li>Under HTTP response → Detected meta tags, the robots tag is listed explicitly.</li>
</ol>
Method 4 — site: Search Operator
After Google recrawls the page (typically 24–72 hours), searching <code>site:yourdomain.com/post-slug</code> on Google returns no results, confirming the page has been de-indexed.
