robots.txt is making that google donst see my wordpress site

i have just finshed the site signum.team but google is not indexing it, it says that "there is no information available because of robots.txt". but that is weird because i have the robots.txt saying: User-agent: Googlebot Allow: /

signum.team/robots.txt

so that should let google see everything. i did this 2 days ago and i have seen online that google should see it in a day. so does someone know what i can do to make sure google sees it?

Login to your WordPress site with admin access.

Go to Settings > Reading and under Search Engine Visibility uncheck the box and you are now good to go.

Because if this box is checked it adds following code and as a result Google or any search engin cannot read your site.

<meta name='robots' content='noindex,follow' />

Cheers.

If you see the source code of your website:

meta name='robots' content='noindex,follow'

You're forcing Google to not index your page / website, please either remove it or replace it with index from noindex so it should look like this;

meta name='robots' content='index,follow'
