    Thanks, but I need to index the other files in /lyrics/.
    Its just the print,74306.html numbered of files (the print versions of the pages) I dont want to index to avoid duplicate pages.

    Can this work?

    Hi there, you have to write the below code in the "/robots.txt" to achieve what you want... ;-)

    Peace!

    Ouch, that means that I need 15000 entries in my robots.txt. I cant do that. You are 100% sure about this?

    Dont worry mate... if you dont have the print directory in your lyrics folder then you can surely reduce your code by just writing the two little lines...

    Cheers mate... but be sure that it will disallow all the files & folders begins with the print..... Peace! :)

    Thanks again.
    I am not sure, because the files print,74306.html are not in folders, they are pulled from a database.

    Well, if you have many green dots people can see that many people gave you rep and therefor think that you are a nice or helpful person. Then its more likely that people will trust you in transactions and everything else.
    Some members here have collected green dots for a long time... :D
