After reading this thread, I downloaded the latest SVN this morning. I thought the problem might be with my child theme, so I went back to using Thematic by itself. And I turned off all plugins. Weirdly, I still get two robots tags:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
<meta name="robots" content="index,follow" />
<link rel="canonical" href="http://localhost:8888/lajolla"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost:8888/lajolla/wp-content/themes/thematic/style.css" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="http://localhost:8888/lajolla/feed/" title="La Jolla Health Coach Posts RSS feed" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="http://localhost:8888/lajolla/comments/feed/" title="La Jolla Health Coach Comments RSS feed" />
<link rel="pingback" href="http://localhost:8888/lajolla/xmlrpc.php" />
<meta name='robots' content='noindex,nofollow' />
When I'm using a child theme, using a filter with thematic_show_robots in the functions file removes the first robots tag, but not the second. The problem is that when I activate an SEO plugin, I'm back to having two tags.
Also, I don't have a description tag.
Any ideas?
