To be fair it is quite possible that this change affects a whole range of pages there, for example (total guess) it could be that it affects all legal expenses type appeals, or possible that there is some other general explanation , and I never claimed it was one page only.

GoFundMe terms and conditions appear to have restrictions on funding accounts under certain circumstances.

Interesting too that GoFundMe will take 5% of all monies collected as commission.

I have looked at a few other GFM UK appeals and there is no meta robot no index no follow amid the source data.
Only on Amaral's page. I'm no techie - but I presume someone who knows what they're doing can use the developer tools to modify the page (I know of someone who can do rather a lot with Yahoo forum boards!)

GoFundMe state that an account will not show up in the GoFundMe Public Search Directory if it is not connected to a valid personal Facebook account.

It hasn't been connected to a valid personal F/Book account for several weeks. No explanation. No-one has been publicly told who now owns  the Stripe account, through which donations are channelled (and which have all the names & credit card details of donators) and takes another commission cut & charges for currency conversion.

We have asked Leanne to clarify the position.

I thought she had nothing more to do with the Fund and was concentrating on her family?

I expect there's a simple explanation. After all, no-one would have any reason to stop people finding that page, would they?
Read and abide by the forum rules.
Result = happy posting.
Ignore and break the rules
Result = edits, deletions and unhappiness

Thanks Misty.

What made you check the page data? Do you have a screenshot of older data from it?

I didn't think Leanne was any more involved in it?

Thanks. The shot taken 28/9 doesn't have the meta robot no index text in it, so it's been added since then.
The words "take the money & run" keep coming into my head. Don't know why.
