Hello, recently updated komento from free version to pro.

In webmaster tools I see many crawl errors like this:

index.php?option=com_komento&lang=&Itemid=1294, response code 500

When I check page that links to it (for example article without any comments) and when I view page source I see this script:


<script type="text/javascript">
window.kt = {
"environment": "production",
"rootUrl": "http://domain.lt",
"ajaxUrl": "http://domain.lt/index.php?option=com_komento&lang=&Itemid=1294",
"baseUrl": "http://domain.lt/index.php?option=com_komento&lang=none&Itemid=1294",
"token": "9d575df822a373780d4fa67ad6c1716a",
"mobile": false,
"siteName": "domain.lt",
"locale": "lt-LT",
"direction": "ltr"
};
</script>


Is it something you could suggest or its sitemap generating problem? Thank you.
Hello Dalia,

These are scripts generated on the page so that our javascript knows how to connect to the site when an ajax call is performed. I don't think this would be affecting the crawlers. What was the exact error message that webmaster is reporting?

Hello Dalia,

It seems like there is a huge discussion about this at https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/webmasters/xWzm5L5g8j8 and it also seems like the only possible way to force Google crawlers to not crawl these kind of codes is to wrap a html comment around that script block

I could try this on your site but is it possible for you to provide us with the back end and FTP access to the site?

Well, if its the way how everybody using komento has, so I would live with it also

But if it does not take much time of yours, I will provide my ftp access to site.

Hello Dalia,

I have applied some changes on the way Komento renders those script tags and hopefully those crawlers would not scan those script sections. Could you try marking those items as "Fixed" in Google Webmaster and see if those errors are being generated again?

Keep me updated on this.
