Summary0000569: Google will probe the topic control function drop-downs
DescriptionGoogle will submit these drop downs as they are 'GET' forms. However, the default selection link, which is blocked for user submission by JS, will be probed by Google. Google accessed this invalid link (&type=-1) and sees a 404.

Change the default human-unselectable to be &type=misc, which we are handling with a proper result on the topics module.

Change &type=misc in the topics module to generate a noindex message to Google.

Fixed in git commit 07b41cc (https://github.com/chrisgraham/Composr/commit/07b41cc - link will become active once code pushed)

A hotfix (a TAR of files to upload) have been uploaded to this issue. These files are made to the latest intra-version state (i.e. may roll in earlier fixes too if made to the same files) - so only upload files newer than what you have already. Always take backups of files you are replacing or keep a copy of the manual installer for your version, and only apply fixes you need. These hotfixes are not necessarily reliable or well supported. Not sure how to extract TAR files to your Windows computer? Try 7-zip (http://www.7-zip.org/).
