Add the <meta name="robots" content="noindex">
meta tag within your <head>
.
Then look into is_category() to add it specifically to your category pages.
Or alternatively, you can check if $cat_id
is available:
$cat_id = get_query_var('cat');
If it is available, then it is a category page.
EDIT Just add it in an IF statement:
if (is_category()){
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
}
EDIT 2 You can add this code to your category.php file which you can find within your theme’s folder. Add it within the <head>
tag.
