Hi all,

Just got an email from Google Product search:
Anyone knows what this is about? Could this be because of "Disallow: /Assets/" in the robots.txt, which is the default configuration in Able? But we had AC running for about 4 months now and I checked couple of products in google product search, all seem to have images. Should I remove "Disallow: /Assets/"? What are the risks of doing this?Hello,
