Robots.txt Blocked Most Site URLs Because of Canonical
-
Had a bit of a "Gotcha" in Magento.
We had Yoast Canonical Links extension which worked well , but then we installed Mageworx SEO Suite.. which broke Canonical Links.
Unfortunately it started putting www.mysite.com/catalog/product/view/id/516/ as the Canonical Link - and all URLs with /catalog/productview/* is blocked in Robots.txt
So unfortunately We told Google that the correct page is also a blocked page. they haven't been removed as far as I can see but traffic has certainly dropped.
We have also , at the same time had some Site changes grouping some pages & having 301 redirects.
Resubmitted site map & did a fetch as google.
Any other ideas? And Idea how long it will take to become unblocked?
