    WordPress version: 3.5
    WordPress SEO version: 1.3.4.1

    This isn’t a bug report… this is a question.

    I need to tell Google to ignore a section of my site that I will be allowing users to cross post content from their personal blogs. It will all be in a particular blog category, so I’m guessing that what I need to do is tell search engines to nofollow that section, but I don’t know how to do this.

    If you could tell me if this is the way to accomplish this, and how to do it, that would be great.

    Thanks in advance! Great plugin.

    Man… I’m a dunce… I found the setting that does this for me… if anyone who’s searching for a solution to this same problem finds this post, all you have to do is go to the edit category admin page, and you can noindex it and not include it on the sitemap under the ‘Yoast WordPress SEO Settings’.

    Thanks/sorry!
