Including a folder within a Disallow folder?

Does anyone know how to include a folder that is within a Disallowed folder in robots.txt?

For example

Disallow: /administration/

BUT

I want to allow /administration/pdf

Thanks for your help.

 

Hi,

The short answer is that you cannot do that with a standard robots.txt file.

Some search engines support private extensions, like the Allow: directive which is not standard and which you could use.

For example:

User-agent: Googlebot 
Disallow: /administration/
Allow: /administration/pdf/
