New Page Showing Up On My Reports w/o Page Title, Words, etc - However, I didn't create it
-
I have a WordPress site and I was doing a crawl for errors and it is now showing up as of today that this page : https://thinkbiglearnsmart.com/event-registration/?event_id=551&name_of_event=HTML5 CSS3 is new and has no page title, words, etc.
I am not even sure where this page or URL came from. I was messing with the robots.txt file to allow some /category/ posts that were being hidden, but I didn't re-allow anything with the above appendages.
I just want to make sure that I didn't screw something up that is now going to impact my rankings - this was just a really odd message to come up as I didn't create this page recently - and that shouldnt even be a page accessible to the public. When I edit the page - it is using an Event Espresso (WordPress plugin) shortcode - and I don't want to noindex this page as it is all of my events.
Sorry this post is confusing, any help or insight would be appreciated!
I am also interested in hiring someone for some hourly consulting work on SEO type issues if anyone has any references.
Thank you!

A quick question: Where did you discover this page? Using a tool like Xenu or Screaming Frog or in Google Webmaster Tools? Other? That'll help narrow down the issue.
Oftentimes WordPress or WordPress plugins will spawn various URI iterations (especially with URI variables) that you may not be aware of.

From Raven Tools!

Ah I love Raven. But which part in particular? Is it being pulled in from your Analytics? Can you share a screenshot of what you're looking at?

Hi Marty,
Thanks for your help. Sure - in the site auditor under Meta, Content and Semantic is where it is pulling this new link.
