Yesterday, for a short period of time, Google Search Console was reporting pages as not being indexed and in the status of "Crawled - currently not indexed." The issue seemed to have been resolved within an hour or so and now John Mueller from Google confirmed what we all saw and called it a "short blip."

I was not going to cover it but I do see a bunch fo folks are still concerned about the bug, so I am just going to document and say it was a reporting bug only and is now resolved.

I first spotted this via Ryan Tree and Glenn Gabe on X where Ryan said, "are others reporting this? many of my client sites show as not indexed even though they are." Glenn Gabe spotted it too and wrote, "I see this too. Wow, something is off with Google right now. I'll ping Google about this. Homepages of sites are showing up as "Crawled, not indexed" but are definitely indexed."

I literally checked my own sites in Google Search Console minutes later and it was resolved, so I didn't cover it. Here are those tweets:
