I have Robots.txt in place to not search the directory where my gedcom is, I have .htaccess, I have meta tags set up, and I have asked Google to remove my cached pages. It isn't the cached pages that is the problem now, though...it is the actual search page. Really it is only for one person. I tried to search all kinds of living people in my tree and none came up...however this one person told me his info is on Google and it point to my site...but there is nothing on my site. It is in my gedcom on my .htaccess folder but I have used privacy features to not publish it so I don't know how it is searching it.
Anyway..I isn't important. I'm going to try and fiddle with Legacy some more to see what I can do BEFORE I get my data to the server so I don't rely on the privacy features of my online program Donna -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Roger Lewis Sent: June 23, 2005 10:14 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Privatize ALL the Living - Help If you download one of your web pages and view it in a text viewer, you will see the data that you wish to keep private. You have uploaded it to the server, the data is there, and Google has no way of knowing that you wish to keep it private. Google's index contains "raw data" - that is why sometimes the results of a search contain snippets of html code and other strange stuff. You MAY be able to keep Google from indexing certain info, depending on how your website is organized. You need a file called robots.txt.
