Installation

  • unzip master.zip as folder site/plugins/kirby3-robots-txt or
  • git submodule add https://github.com/bnomei/kirby3-robots-txt.git site/plugins/kirby3-robots-txt or
  • composer require bnomei/kirby3-robots-txt

Setup

The plugin generates automatic defaults for the starterkit. You do not have to enter them in the config file. But if you would it would look like this.

TIP: If you are using the kirby3-feeds Plugin or kirby3-xmlsitemap Plugin your sitemap will be automatically added to the robots.txt file. You can skip setting the bnomei.robots-txt.sitemap config value to sitemap.xml.

defaults for starterkit

<?php
return [
    'bnomei.robots-txt.content' => null, // string or callback
    'bnomei.robots-txt.sitemap' => null, // string or callback
    'bnomei.robots-txt.groups' => [ // array or callback
        '*' => [ // user-agent
            'disallow' => [
                '/kirby/',
                '/site/',
            ],
            'allow' => [
                '/media/',
            ]
        ]
    ]
];

using a plain string

<?php
return [
    'bnomei.robots-txt.content' => 'user-agent: *
disallow: /kirby/
disallow: /site/
allow: /media/',
];

using a callback

<?php
return [
    'bnomei.robots-txt.content' => function() {
        return site()->myRobotsTxtContentField()->value();
    },
];

sitemap and multiple user-agents

<?php
return [
    'bnomei.robots-txt.sitemap' => 'sitemap.xml',
    'bnomei.robots-txt.groups' => [
        '*' => [
            'disallow' => [
                '/',
            ],
        ],
        'googlebot-images' => [
            'allow' => [
                '/media/',
            ]
        ]
    ]
];

Staging Server? Debug Mode = Disallow all

Since v1.3.0 when you set the global Kirby debug config to true the plugin will disallow all indexing for all user-agents. This is especially usefull on a staging server but you could consider xml-sitemap and rss-feed among other things as well.
