Access Denied errors in GWMT anybody have a fix?

[wonderpunter]

Just noticed lots of access denied errors.. all ending with the regular url and then /feed/ .. Try to find answer online so far no acail, I am using wordpress and wondering if this has anything to do with a recent update as when I click the said link it says comments closed¿

Have you (or wordpress via the update) disallowed /feed/ in robots.txt or .htaccess? That would be my first thought.

Try going into the site errors page in GWT and selecting the 'Access Denied' tab. Then see what the response code is for the URL's as it should help shed light on why it can't crawl the page. You can also click the blocked URL's to see more information about the error (eg: authentication needed, blocked by robots.txt and so on).

I keep all comments closed.. weird thing is errors just went away... never had a problem before.. But recently have noticed the Google bot acting strange and have lots of old content showing.. potential caffiene refresh?
