Richard Fox Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Guys have have a problem. I have moved a forum from the homepage months ago to a subdomain. On the front end I now have a shop. I have left a tab at the top of the page leading to the forum. My issue is when you search Google, Bing and Yahoo. Forum display topics overshadow shop on search engine. How do I switch off. It would be fine if sub domain though it’s the shop homepage. Any help appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Stridgen Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 It would likely take some time for the main page depending what its picking up, but we are unable to prevent google from indexing what it sees is the most relevant content for the search criteria entered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Fox Posted May 27, 2023 Author Share Posted May 27, 2023 (edited) Hello Marc, I have added the website address to my profile. Says domain name.

Marc Stridgen Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Im not sure what it is you are looking for us to address here. As mentioned, we have no control over how google indexes, other than showing the content to google, structuring the content accordingly. If older links are still present, you would need to simply wait. There is nothing more you can really do there unless you write your own redirects for google to follow (which you may not be able to do if you have something new at that location) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
