      Hi,

      I have a site which uses Event Manager Pro within Wordpress to create Events (as custom post types on my blog. I use it to advertise cookery classes. In a given month I might run one type of class 4 times. The event page I have made for each class is the same and I duplicate it 4 times and just change the dates to promote it.

      The problem is with over 10 different classes, which are then duplicated up to 4 times each per month. I get loads of duplicate content errors.

      How can I fix this without redirecting people away from the correct page for the date they are interested in?

      Is it best just to use a no follow for ALL events and rely on the other parts of my site for SEO?

      Thanks,

      T23

        • To avoid the duplicate content issue I have created new urls for that specific site I am posting to and redirecting that url to the original on my site. Is this the right way to do it?
