I disabled tags on my site due to negative seo impact. If you really want to stick with it I would suggest removing generic tags and only allow admins to add relevant tags. I still think the tags page should either be blocked from being crawled or removed completely.

Hello dear
I already use special tags and not automatic
But the same description is for all tags, there is a way to modify the search results in the tags page but do not know it.

I find google & bing regularly crawling my tags list, it helps more pages get indexed.

Sorry, I'm a bonehead. I didn't ask the right question.

Is there a place people using the forum will see that there is a tags page if the tags are completely turned off?

I mean, tags.php

I get a "permission denied" page if I go directly there, but I am wondering if there is a "tags" link or somesuch that needs to be removed.

I agree with what RichieBoy67 said, but if you still want to use tags on vBulletin 4 then you have to manage it carefully because members can use tags to add unwanted tags on your site and that will affect SEO for your forum. I faced same problem and I also disabled tag feature on my vBulletin.

Yes, as Brandon said..use robots.txt Disallow: /tags.php

You can disable the tags feature by going into your settings /tagging options.

Tags is an outdated function since Google now considers tags as "keyword stuffing."
