Umm, no need for a plugin. Just update your robots.txt to disallow google bot et al.

create a text file called robots.txt
add the following in that.

User-Agent: Google
Disallow: /

User-Agent: Googlebot
Disallow: /

User-Agent: WIRE
Disallow: /

if you want to disallow from all engines add this

User-Agent: *
Disallow: /

LOOOL, why would you use a plugin for robots.txt? It is a TEXT file, where you need to add just ONE line, to do what you want. You need a GUI for that?

To exclude ALL robots add:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /

To ALLOW them:

User-agent: *
Disallow:

To dissalow only Googlebot:

User-agent: Googlebot
Disallow: /

Dont know If you read my first page, but I was looking to hide only wordpress posts and pages, not the entire website.

check wp Privacy Settings, no need any plugin or robot.txt
