By default, Flowershow serves an auto-generated robots.txt that allows all crawlers and links to your sitemap. If you publish a robots.txt file in your vault, it will be used instead.

How to use

Add a robots.txt file to the root of your content (or your configured rootDir) and publish your site. Flowershow will automatically serve it at yourdomain.com/robots.txt.

For example, to block AI crawlers from training on your content:

User-agent: *
Allow: /

User-agent: GPTBot
Disallow: /

User-agent: ClaudeBot
Disallow: /

User-agent: CCBot
Disallow: /

Or to keep a section of your site out of search engine indexes:

User-agent: *
Allow: /
Disallow: /private/

Default behavior

If no robots.txt is found in your published content, Flowershow serves this default:

User-agent: *
Allow: /
Disallow: /api/

Sitemap: https://yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml

Notes

  • The file must be named exactly robots.txt (lowercase)
  • It must be at the root of your published content — placing it in a subfolder won't work
  • If you use rootDir, put the file inside that directory
  • Changes take effect after your next publish/sync
