Issue
- We are trying to edit the robots.txt file through public pages, but we are getting the following message: 'Please set the virtual host before you set the robots.txt'. We are using one instance with two sites and have defined in apache two servers with the appropriate re-directions, one for each site. How can we proceed to edit robots.txt?
Resolution
- Go to your Site and on the left panel select Configuration > Site Settings > under the General tab scroll down to Site URL and set the virtual host for public pages
- Once you add your public virtual host here, you can create your robots.txt file under the {Site name} > Site Builder > Pages --> click on the configuration icon for Public Pages > select Advanced tab > Set the robots.txt for public pages
