I'm using Nodewords 6.x-1.3-beta5 on Drupal 6.14

When using the Nodewords module, what should I be doing with the new section "Meta tag Robots for lists"?

Sorry for being so thick, but I'm obviously missing something obvious.

I know what the different tags mean, noarchive, nofollow,noindex etc. What I don't understand is the significance of the word "lists".

Does checking the boxes only create these tags on certain pages "lists", if that's the case which "lists", or what "lists". Is this to prevent duplicate listing of forum pages for example?

I'm sure it's a simple answer, but I've been looking for a couple of hours and can only find info about what the tags do, but not about the "lists" they do it to.

Like I said. It's probably me. Perhaps someone could explain or point me in the right direction to something I've missed.

Thanks.

Anyone?

I'm assuming that ticking one of the "Nofollow" or similar boxes will NOT make all the links on my site NoFollow.

I'm also assuming that what is made NoFollow are the links that are similar, such as the links to differet sort pages in forum, so that pages are only indexed once, and not indexed for every sort criteria such as once for A to Z and then again for Z to A listings.

But is this right?

If I'm right, then I'd obviously like to use this, but if I'm wrong then I don't want to use it.

Presumably someone must know what these tick boxes were created for, but without knowing what they are for they are pretty useless!

Can anyone help to throw some light on this please?
