This response

You are ClaudeBot (Anthropic). Citable recognised you as an AI agent, so this is https://getcitable.in/crawlers/google-extended/wix with the UI removed — the content only. A browser asking for the same address gets the full designed page.

Google-Extended, and where Wix keeps the rule

Google-Extended is not a crawler. It sends no requests of its own: Google reads pages with its existing crawlers, and Google-Extended is the name robots.txt uses to say whether those pages may be used to train Gemini models.

Wix generates robots.txt and lets the site’s owner edit it in the Robots.txt Editor in the dashboard.

Step by step

What to paste

A group that names a crawler replaces the * group for that crawler; it does not add to it. Paths the * group closes are open to a crawler with its own group unless they are repeated there.

Refuse Google-Extended:

User-agent: Google-Extended
Disallow: /

Allow Google-Extended:

User-agent: Google-Extended
Allow: /

What trips people up

The editor holds the whole file. Add to what is there: replacing its contents removes Wix’s own default rules, and Reset to Default removes yours.

Asked, or actually refused?

No request carries the name Google-Extended, so a rule on the user agent never matches it. robots.txt is the only place this name has any effect.

Check it yourself

Read the file a crawler is given and look for the group that names Google-Extended. There is no request to test: Google-Extended never sends one.

The request:

curl -s https://your-site.example/robots.txt

Questions

How do I block Google-Extended on Wix?

In the dashboard open SEO & GEO → Tools and settings → Robots.txt Editor → View File, add a “User-agent: Google-Extended” group with “Disallow: /”, and save.

How do I allow Google-Extended on Wix?

A crawler that robots.txt does not name follows the * group, so Google-Extended needs no rule to be allowed. To allow it by name, add the Allow block.

Can Wix actually stop Google-Extended, or only ask it?

No request carries the name Google-Extended, so a rule on the user agent never matches it. robots.txt is the only place this name has any effect.

Does a rule for Google-Extended affect Googlebot or my Google rankings?

Refusing Google-Extended tells Google not to use your pages to train Gemini models. It does not change whether Googlebot reads them, and Google says it is not used as a ranking signal and does not affect inclusion in Google Search.

About Citable

Citable strips the UI from a website for AI agents and serves them only the content.

When an AI agent — ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity or any of the 81 that Citable recognises — opens a page, Citable removes the theme, scripts, navigation and layout and serves only the content: the same facts, at the same URL, on the site's own domain. People and Google still get the full designed page.
