Hello every body :)

When i see my link indexes by Google, i found link type "/en/virtuemart/achievements/detail/ask_a_question?tmpl=component" and if i go on url, i came across a page that i did not need :(

Do you know how I could disable this url or this page?

Thank you :)

Disallow the url in robots.txt is the first step, then remove it from Google's index using the Remove URLs facility in Google Webmaster Tools.

Hello jenkinhill,

If I banned the url via GWT plugin will continue to function properly?

Thank you,

Sorry, I misspoke.

If I banned links via GWT, the VirtueMart plugin always work although some link is de-indexed?

All you are doing is removing a url from Googla's index and with robots.txt prevent SE bots from following that url. Nothing at all to do with using the site/VM etc. And VirtueMart is a component, not a plugin.......
