Hello!
Many of our help files are published as web help. We would like to change the setting in the "robots" tag in the published web help (see image below) to <meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">.
We'd like to do this to stop web search robots from indexing the helpfile and exposing it to searches e.g. via Google or Bing. Can this be done in H+M?
Follow-up question: can H+M generate a robots.txt file in the folder where the web help file is created? This would also help us to block indexing.
Thanks!

Hi,
You can edit the HTML at Configuration > HTML Page Templates > Default. If you use a skin, you need to do this in the skin, not the project.
If you create a robots.txt file and add it to you Baggage files, it will be included in your Webhelp output.
