    Hi,

    My forum posts are not being index. If I go to home page or click on category to see all threads, it says its being indexed. But when I click on a thread to view all posts, it changes to not-indexable. I am using a SEO plugin and please see the attached screenshot for in depth view. I went to other site and even in DP to check if its a plug-in error but all other site says indexable but mine. It doesn't happen just in one or two posts, but every single post in my forum.

    I am not sure if its due the the same reason but my Google Webmaster tools also show junk words as my more significant keywords. Please look at this: View attachment 52962
    Seems like its not seeing any keywords in posts because they are not being indexed. I can see 600+ pages indexed in Google to by using site:mydomain.com but there is something wrong with indexing my post. Any help?
    Some people did told me to remove "noindex" tag but can't tell me how.

    Thanks

    Yes, they're correct in saying to remove "noindex" from the head. What is your blog running on? It shouldn't be too hard to remove..

    Its a forum, running vBulletin 4.13. I did a Google search, but couldn't find how to remove it.

    Your forum posts are being indexed, do a simple search on Google. SEO Doctor is good, but still a plug-in

    But why it says not indexable just on my forum. There has to be something wrong. How about the keywords, is it normal? Its just listing some junk words as most significant keywords. I have computer and tech related keywords and it showing "forum", "post" etc in keywords. Maybe its not seeing the posts?
