Dear Steve,

What that Options does is hide the feed, but active links will still work.

IF you get a 404 on your website most visitors will not remain on your site and you might have problems with Google Page rank because of those pages. What I suggest for you to do is to go to Components -> Redirect and create a redirect for those pages.

Best regards,

Sorry that I was not clear - I understand they won't disappear from google overnight but what I am saying is I made the change you said but

takeyourpet.com/faq-s/28-media.feed

still comes up as a page and does not return a 404 as it should. How do I get *FROM JOOMLA* these pages that MooFAQ created to not exist anymore?

Hope that is more clear. Thanks,

Steve

Dear Steve,

By default it will take a while for your URLs to be removed from Google search, however if you want to you can go to www.google.com/webmasters/tools/sitelinks -> Configuration -> Sitelinks and "Demote" some the URLs you want.

Thanks Douglas - did that but the pages still come up in joomla - I do not want them to come up so they'll return a 404 and drop from google.

For example, see


www.takeyourpet.com/faq-s/28-media.feed

Please advise. Thanks,

Steve

Dear Stempelman,

That tab is present in the latest versions, so I assume you are using an older version.

Please upgrade to the latest version so you can gain access to that tab.

Thanks Douglas but there is no such tab. When I click Options Article Manager Options comes up and there are only 4 tabs - slider, articles, category, and categories.
