What do you think about this robots.txt ?

I'm having ranking issues with my Woocommerce.
Could it be robots.txt related?
Do you see a problem in my robots.txt file?

The syntax looks fine, though I take it the sitemap url references your actual domain and you've just redacted it here?

references your actual domain and you've just redacted it here?

You've obviously got experience asking "Have you restarted the computer?"

You've obviously got experience asking "Have you restarted the computer?"

The early 2000s were usually "I'm a web dev", "Oh cool, can you fix my printer?"...

Your robots file is very carefully customized, which shows that you have a strong technical understanding. The ranking issue probably isn’t related to your robots file.

Looks mostly fine to me. You're blocking the normal pages like cart and checkout, which is standard. Just make sure you're not blocking any important category or product pages by mistake. Also check that your sitemap is working. Usually ranking issues come from other areas, not robots.txt.

My ranking problems started when we switched to Cloudfare.
