Fix Allow/Disallow Conflict for AI

Conflicting Allow and Disallow rules for the same path. Search engines use longest matching prefix; order matters.

Common causes

  • Allow: /blog and Disallow: /blog/admin in wrong order.
  • Multiple rules for same path.
  • Different behavior for different bots.

How to fix

  1. Place more specific rules first.
  2. Use Robots.txt for AI Bots to see rule order.
  3. Test with User-Agent Rules for AI.
