Forume Not visible on search engine

You have to create the robots.txt file. Click the link in the post above yours.

Also, if your forum is already in search engines, it's too late. It will take a ton of time to eliminate the entries from them.

And, blocking all search engines is next to impossible. Many do not obey robots.txt and you'll find your site listed even with the restrictions you place on them.

The only sure fire way is to start with a fresh site, and password protect the forum area.
