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.

Simple SEO Noindex Toggle

A lightweight, professional SEO plugin — add a noindex robots tag to any post or page with a quick-edit support.

This simple and lightweight plugin adds a “Hide from search engines” checkbox above the publish box to pages. By 
ticking this box, a meta tag will be placed into the <code><head></code> section of your page specifying that robots should 
not index the page.
By default this only applies to pages. You may extend this functionality to posts or other custom post types with a small bit of code. See the FAQ’s tab for further instructions.

Noindex Pages

Ask search engines not to index individual pages by checking an option in the publish post box.
