    21  To create your robots.txt as a template, first set the `enableRobotsTXT` value to `true` in your [configuration file][config]. By default, this option generates a robots.txt with the following content, which tells search engines that they are allowed to crawl everything:
    22  
    23  ```
    24  User-agent: *
    25  ```
    26  
    27  ## Robots.txt Template Lookup Order
    28  
    29  The [lookup order][lookup] for the `robots.txt` template is as follows:
    30  
    31  * `/layouts/robots.txt`
    32  * `/themes/<THEME>/layouts/robots.txt`
    33  
    34  {{% note %}}
    35  If you do not want Hugo to create a default `robots.txt` or leverage the `robots.txt` template, you can hand code your own and place the file in `static`. Remember that everything in the [static directory](/getting-started/directory-structure/) is copied over as-is when Hugo builds your site.

    38  ## Robots.txt Template Example
    39  
    40  The following is an example `robots.txt` layout:
    41  
    42  {{< code file="layouts/robots.txt" download="robots.txt" >}}
    43  User-agent: *
    44  
    45  {{range .Pages}}
    46  Disallow: {{.RelPermalink}}
    47  {{end}}
    48  {{< /code >}}
    49  
    50  This template disallows all the pages of the site by creating one `Disallow` entry for each page.
