Technical Q&A

Trying to hide one of the page in Google’s search results.

When you put the code:

{% if handle contains 'page-handle-you-want-to-exclude' %}
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
{% endif %}

Which way is the right way?

  1. Do you add a “full” handle to that code i.e: www.XYZ.com/pages/thank-you

  2. Only /pages/thank-you

  3. Or only: thank-you
