Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks Kane, Webmaster says that I have 2500 Duplicate title tags and 2300 Duplicate meta descriptions

Is there a quick way to fix these

I am using redirection plugin which redirects the both urls to the same page. Google last crawled the page on the 25th Feb..

The site is 10 years old

Thanks

Hi Eric,

I changed the permalinks months ago...

what should I be looking for in Screaming Frog..

Just ran Screaming Frog and it does not show any major duplicate issues..

Webmaster is giving errors of Duplicate Meta Descriptions and Duplicate Title Tags after I changes the permalinks structure in wordpress.

It there a quick fix for this and how damaging is the above for seo.

Thanks T

Thanks for your suggestions Peter and Malika,

By the wayt The staging site had it's own url..

I think I need help with the canonical stuff, as I am not really sure how to use it.

duplicate content issue: staging url has been indexed by google ( many pages) and need to know how to remove them from the serps.

Bing sees the staging url as moved permanently

Google sees the staging urls (240 results) and redirects to the correct url Should I be concerned about duplicate content and request Google to remove the staging url removed

Thanks Guys

Hi Kristen

Thanks for the heads up.. I have found the cause...

Wordpress v. 4.4, on my test site i rolled back to 4.3.1 and it all works fine. So I think it must be an issue with the plugin which has not been updated to wordpress 4.4

Thank you for your help.

i see, how and where do i apply this, sounds like it's worth a try.

Thanks

Hi Kristen,

Thanks for your reply. We are not blocking via robots.txt. the problem shows up on the directory section, categories, tags and listings all showing the same meta title.

We have had Yoest team take a look at it, (possibly SEO plugin) The wordpress theme support has also tested..

All drawing blanks at the moment

Hi our website meta title on the directory section is showing the same title, it does not show the page title.

We have tried turning off all plugins, reinstalling the theme, creating a new htacces file. installing Yoast, and testing with All in one seo but still the same thing happens.

Tried different themes with the same results

But when we test with Twenty Thirteen it is ok

Completely lost and would love some help

Thanks in advance

can you do me a favour and check if  http://www.............magazine.com is duplicate with the above domain that we are talking about i used your similar page checker and it said 100% we have a redirect on the domain, but i am concerned that it may not be effective

Thank you for your help, So these pages have no content on them yet, So I guess I need to put some content on them. Do you think that these issues affect my google ranking?

Hi Chiaryn, and Bryan
 thanks for your help..

I did not want to be too specific initially as I did not know how open this help request would be.The site is as mentioned above.

One question, will all these duplicate content affect the site in Google?

I can apply the User-agent: *
Disallow: ?attachmentWhat is the code to perform the canonical tag?

Also please can you look at this duplicate content.. I do t understand why it is duplicate content

If I fix these issues will my site ranking improve?

Thanks again

Hi Tom, Thank you so much for your help. Just need to be clear on one thing.. Most of the images are pointing to the correct uploads folder.

And some are pointing to /blog/wp-content/uploads folder.

ps. the permalinks settings have been set up.

pps. Your suggestions do look a bit complicated.. (i may need to get some to look at implementing it)

Hi, i have recently moved my wordpress blog to a new server..

Previously I had a url as website.com/blog

My blog site is now running on the domain website.com

Now most of my images are in the correct folder path wp-content/uploads

Howerver, some of my images are pointing to a folder /blog/wp-content/uploads and so I am getting many missing image on the front end.

How do i get the /blog/wp-content/uploads point to the new url wp-content/uploads

Thanks guys..
