| Description | Google will submit these drop downs as they are 'GET' forms. However, the default selection link, which is blocked for user submission by JS, will be probed by Google. Google accessed this invalid link (&type=-1) and sees a 404.
Change the default human-unselectable to be &type=misc, which we are handling with a proper result on the topics module. Change &type=misc in the topics module to generate a noindex message to Google. |
