   When I try to change the robots meta settings in a page, they don't, it stays on "index, follow".

   for example, I change to the radio button of "noindex, nofollow", then I click "Update Page". when the Editing page is reloaded, it shows that the setting got back to "index, follow".

   so annoying, this is the primary job of the plugin I think and sadly isn't working :(

   I outlined a fix for this problem in another topic.

   Webstractions, it did not work.

   I will try the other suggestions on that topic.

   This worked:

   - Deactivate the Robots Meta plugin.
   - Delete the plugin files.
   - Download Robots meta v 3.0.11 from here:
   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/robots-meta/download/
   direct link:
   http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/robots-meta.3.0.11.zip
   - upload this version, and activate.
   - test on a page.
   - upgrade plugin automatically.

   Thanks Webstractions for linking to that topic.

   I think it did not work because you needed to save the settings within the plugin to actually initiate the function that creates the new column in the post table. My bad.

   Good to see you got it working though.
