Hello, In 8.1 and 7.6.2 a new feature was added that enables SSR only for certain pages <https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC8x/User+Interface+Configuration#UserInterfaceConfiguration-ServerSideRendering(SSR)Settings> . The default values should be fine, I just tested it with 8.1 images (backend and frontend) and it is working on the necessary pages for Google indexing.
You can test whether your instance has SSR enabled for the item pages by either disabling Javascript temporarily in your browser <https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/javascript/disable> or executing a *curl <url to item page>* in a terminal. If in either case you are unable to view the item page, the issue may be with your SSR configuration or how you are starting/deploying the front-end.
