chrissssI'm using Advanced Category Excluder 1.4.3 on WordPress 2.9.2 here. When you modify the header to exclude google etc. you run this code (line 378 of advanced-category-excluder.php)...
<-----cut----->
if($modifyheader)
{
echo '<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">'."\n";
echo '<!-- A.C.E. by DjZoNe -->';
return true;
}
return false;
<----/cut----->
This breaks validation. When you open a page from a excluded category in http://validator.w3.org/ it says...
<-----cut----->
# Error Line 1, Column 5384: end tag for "meta" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified
…="robots" content="noindex, nofollow"><meta name="description" content="Als ei…
You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".
<----/cut----->
To solve this just add a / to the end of the meta tag before you close it
<-----cut----->
if($modifyheader)
{
echo '<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow" />'."\n";
echo '<!-- A.C.E. by DjZoNe -->';
return true;
}
return false;
<----/cut----->
...and the problem is solved.
