This plugin adds a warning to the WordPress admin bar when search engine visibility is off.
That’s all it does! No options, settings, or complications, just a small but obvious warning to ensure you never launch a site with the “Discourage search engines from indexing this site” box checked.
How to use
Install the plugin from the WordPress plugin repository and activate the plugin. There are no settings or options.
