 * Hiya,
 * I keep getting notices that Google can’t access my robots.txt.
 * My robots.txt is as follows:
 * User-agent: *
    Disallow: /wp-admin/ Disallow: /wp-includes/
 * Sitemap: [http://url.com/sitemap.xml.gz](http://url.com/sitemap.xml.gz)
 * I’m using WP and the settings about allowing it to be index are set correctly.
   I can access my robots.txt but when I fetch it on WMT it shows this:
 * Unreachable etc
 * Anyone else had this issue and had a fix? My WP allow settings are also corrrect.
