Subject: Possibility to use 'noindex' or rel="canonical" to stop Google from indexing old versions of documentation?
Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2024 17:24:17 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <DM8PR12MB5430C1F3DF524811569BF9A08B7A2@DM8PR12MB5430.namprd12.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

Hi all,

Like many, I'm getting a little bit tired of searching for a Yocto variable or concept only for the first result in Google to be for an older release.

Is there any way we could add 'noindex' to old versions of docs so Google will stop crawling them? Or maybe add canconical links? Or something in <head>.

I'd be willing to help out with this effort.

Thanks,
Chris
