duplicate content on product pages with multiple pages
 

I am working on my 4.4.5 site uscandleco.com and use cdseo pro. One thing I am running into, and maybe it isn't a big deal, is that I get duplicate content warnings on my product pages. For example... I have 100 products in a category with 20 products per page. This breaks the category up into 5 pages. With cdseo I can assign unique metadata. However, the descriptive paragraph I have for the category is repeated on all 5 pages making a big chunk of duplicate content.

1. is that a problem?
2. is there a way to add some code that will only show the category description paragraph on the 1st page if multiple pages are present?

Thanks.

Try something like:

{if $navigation_page eq "1"}
{$current_category.description|amp}
{/if}

Thanks I'll give that a shot.

Here is what I actually had to use for it to work.


if I left it as
My main categories with ONLY 1 page did not have the description. I guess that the "navigation_page for those is either 0 or nothing so they were not included.

Thanks Paul.
