 * Hello Jeff, first off I have been using BBfBB’s for years on my site, same settings,
   never touched since initial install with zero issues. Now, just received an email
   from Google “New Coverage issue detected” Google Search Console now showing me
   Warnings: “Indexed, though blocked by robots.txt” Bot seems to now be ignoring
   No Follow. Is there anything I can do? Ignore warnings? Click Validate Fix? Any
   insight would be helpful. Yes Google Bot is whitelisted, has been for years.

 * Safe to ignore. Google just letting you know that your robots rules are blocking
   something they have indexed. They are whitelisted so no reason to panic 🙂
