    I need to address a duplicate meta title and meta description issue. I applied a solution that Yoast says works but however applying the changes and placing %%page%% in the field does not reflect anything. https://i.imgur.com/X0Kvonq.png

    I need to solve this. Please anyone who can help me.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    @inessting Please note the %%page%% variable works only on paginated content like blogs, archives, etc. It does not work if used on normal pages or posts. You can use any other suitable variables like %%excerpt%% those from the lists given here.

    Hi @suascat_wp thanks for replying. Yes, the problem is that the change is not reflected in those pages either and they are the ones that are marking me with duplicate title and description.

    Hey @inessting,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I went to your /blog/ and checked a few category archives. When I was browsing to older pages, the URL stayed the same and it looks like it loads them into the same page instead of doing a reload to for instance /page/3/. This seems custom behavior and not what a default WordPress theme would do.

    It was tested on /blog/category/horse-arena/ – clicked on the page 5 button at the bottom, which links to /blog/category/horse-arena/page/5/ – but then it loads them into the same page. I do think that solving this would then better make our archive output work too. Please know that you also have them on noindex, so we don’t output canonical URLs either on noindexed URLs.
