Disable Robot tags for entire site

Is there a way to disable robot tags for an entire project rather than going through page by page?

I need to publish a test version of a live site to play around with and I don’t want search engines finding the test version

The safest way would be to put it behind a password.

The other way is to add a robots.txt file to the root level of the URL.


User-agent: *
Disallow: /

You can also find more information about robots.txt including a test tool here:

Thank you @teefers - no way to do so within RW however?

Not built-in. There’s a plugin

I’ve never used it so can’t say how well it works(same developer as RapidCart pro).

Robots.txt is a simple text file, pretty easy.
