[Changelog.txt](CHANGELOG.txt)
This module blocks (well-behaved) search engine robots from
crawling, indexing, or archiving your site by setting a
"X-Robots-Tag: noindex,nofollow,noarchive" HTTP header.
Enable the module to block search engine robots.
Disable the module to let them crawl your site.
Installation
---
Install this module like any other module. [See Drupal Documentation](https://drupal.org/documentation/install/modules-themes/modules-7)
Configuration
---
Enable the module to block search engine robots.
Disable the module to let them crawl your site.
Advanced Configuration
---
You can set the `nobots` variable to **FALSE** to leave the module enabled, yet still allow robots to crawl your site.
An example use-case would be to set `$settings['nobots'] = FALSE;` in settings.php for the production environment, and `TRUE` for all other environments.
To set the state `nobots` to **TRUE**. `drush @[alias] state:set nobots 1` would block robots.
You can also set the state `nobots` to **FALSE**. `drush state:set nobots 0` would set this state to false.

Releases
---
Steps to build a new release:
- Checkout the latest commit from the `8.x-2.x` branch.
- Create a new branch for the release.
- Commit any necessary changes to the release branch.
- These may include, but are not necessarily limited to:
- Update the version in any `info.yml` files, including in any submodules.
- Update the CHANGELOG to reflect the changes made in the new release.
- Make a PR to merge your release branch into `master`
- Give the PR a semver-compliant label, e.g., (`patch`, `minor`, `major`). This may happen automatically via Github actions (if a labeler action is configured).
- When the PR is merged to `master`, a new tag will be created automatically, bumping the version by the semver label.
- The github action is built from: [semver-release-action](https://github.com/K-Phoen/semver-release-action), and further documentation is available there.
