Utilising Wordpress Attachment Pages Without Getting Duplicate Content Warnings.

[DotP]

I have a wordpres site that relies heavily on images and their usefulness.

Each post links to larger sizes of the images with links back to the post and the "gallery" all images uploaded to the post. Unfortunately this goes against the "rules" and our attachment page show as duplicate content in Google (even though the image titles are different). There must be a way to utlise and make the most of attachment pages without getting duplicate content warnings?

Hi,

Are you using Yoast for your SEO? I would have a look at the Post Types and Taxonomies in the Titles and Meta's section as you can set rules for noindexing, if you wish. This would certainly allow you to have the attachment pages but noindex them.

Alternatively, install / make use of the gallery functions on Wordpress. Not knowing your site, I don't know if this would work for you though.
