Unwanted SE indexing of category item-list was created by Sjoerd Kok
On the website I master we use K2 both for (news) posts and (static) pages.
For the latter, we categorize them as "Pages".

For some particular reason Google has indexed an item-list af that category, which hasn't been made available on the website (typically with K2 Tools module).
Check: www.sparthy.dk/om-sparekassen/information/klageansvarlig/itemlist/category/109-sider?start=42
As you can see when you click "Klageansvarlig" there is no sub-menu (even though the given link indicates that)

What could have presented Google such list? (...we didn't...)
How can I provide such thing?

cheers
Sjoerd

Hi. If you want to hide your content you need to unpublish it. Even if you do not provide a menu link Google will scan the whole document and if it founds any links it will index them also.

(sorry for the late reply)
It is not the content I want to hide, but the presentation of it:

For this category I don't want an item-list available (since all items of this category are used as regular pages).

I know that if you construct the correct URL such item-list will be presented. But we never presented it (to Google). At least not on purpose, but I suspect K2 to do that somewhere more hidden on the site... what else could??

Anybody know where / how??
