Robot file. Switched to SSL.

by Oliver Lawer

Posted: 6 years ago 1 replies

Hi,

We've just successfully switched our site over to SSL.

When digging in webmaster tools, I noticed our robots file had changed.

User-agent: *
Disallow:
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
Sitemap: http://www.curveball-media.co.uk/sitemap_index.xml
Sitemap: http://www.curveball-media.co.uk/video-sitemap.xml

Now it includes an 'allow' function for our admin. This doesn't sound like it should be there?

Secondly, both the http and https search console profiles show a sitemap of http. We've submitted a new https sitemap on the https search console profile and kept the http sitemap on the http search console profile. Is this correct? Should it be like this?

Thanks
