Hello,

In webmaster tools I noticed a lot of crawl errors - URLs with ending format=feed&type=atom. They lead to Error: 500 pages. I do not use rss feeds on my site.

I noticed that all these errors come from easydiscuss pages.

Settings- General - Workflow - Enable RSS is set to "no". Is there somewhere else I could edit that easydiscuss would not generate those urls and google would not crawl it:

format=feed&type=rss" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS 2.0" />
format=feed&type=atom" rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom 1.0" />

Thank you for your help.
Hello Dalia,

Is it possible for you to provide us with the back end and FTP access to your site to check on this issue?

Hello,

When I accessed http://taupau.perkuinternete.lt/forumas , there's no where in the source that is rendering the feed URLs. Where are you seeing them?

Oh sorry, did not list those pages. Please find them now.
I noticed that all coming from "tags".

Hello Dalia,

I have removed the rss links from appearing on the tag pages by commenting out the codes below in the file /components/com_easydiscuss/views/tags/view.html.php


$doc->addHeadLink( JRoute::_( 'index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&view=tags&id=' . $tag ) . $concatCode . 'format=feed&type=rss' , 'alternate' , 'rel' , array('type' => 'application/rss+xml', 'title' => 'RSS 2.0') );
$doc->addHeadLink( JRoute::_( 'index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&view=tags&id=' . $tag ) . $concatCode . 'format=feed&type=atom' , 'alternate' , 'rel' , array('type' => 'application/atom+xml', 'title' => 'Atom 1.0') );
