On Page question

[PHDAustralia68]

HI folks, I have a warning that I have missing meta tag descriptions on two pages.

1) http://bluetea.com.au/wp-login.php

2) http://bluetea.com.au/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

Is this something I should just ignore? Or is there a best practice I should be implementing?

Thank you for your time

Ignore it - there is no reason to put a meta tag description on a page that you don't want indexed, like a log-in page.

I agree with Julie but will make an additional suggestion: add the noindex tag to the page. There is no reason for your login page to be indexed. The addition of this tag should remove the warning as well.

You actually want to noindex, nofollow your login page.  So as mentioned, you can ignore it, but I would go one step further and block it from the search results.

Hey Ryan quick question.. can I add the non index tag on wordpress if that is what the site uses or do I need to be in the code....

[RyanKent]

The noindex tag needs to appear in the HTML head of the page. I am not familiar enough with WP to say if that can happen as part of the default software, but my guess would be a SEO plugin may be necessary.
