What do you mean the settings don’t remove themselves i.e. how do you know they aren’t being removed?
Note that if you have a physical robots.txt file this plugin won’t override it. A physical robots.txt file means WordPress isn’t running so there’s no chance for this plugin to do what it does.
I know because I went to the robots.txt file.
I think the only workaround at this point is to implement a physical robots.txt file. Going to try that and go from there.
If my plugin is disabled you shouldn’t be able to see a robots.txt file. If you can, then something else is generating it or a physical version already exists. My plugin can’t possibly show a robots.txt file if it is disabled.
I have no reason to make up what was happening. The Details tab says it would add the XML sitemap as well but it didn’t do that either. I’ll find a workaround. Feel free to close this one out.
Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply you were making things up. I am, however, suggesting that your interpretation may not be right. When a plugin is inactive, it can’t do anything. Some will leaves files behind, but mine isn’t one of those because it doesn’t create any files. So if you’re able to access a robots.txt file when my plugin is inactive, it’s coming from somewhere else. Or perhaps it’s cached by your browser or maybe some other plugin.
