Google search console reporting duplicate title tags

  • Paul, a minor ‘bug’ that Google Search Console is picking up is that the SiteReviews plugin is reporting duplicate pages for follow-on pages of the site review listings.

    Duplicate title tags
    Your title provides users and search engines with useful information about your site. Text contained in title tags can appear in search results pages, and relevant, descriptive text is more likely to be clicked on. We recommend reviewing the list and updating the title tags wherever possible.

/plymouth/reviews/?reviews-page=11

    Is it possible to automatically add “Page 11” for instance into the Title of the additional listing pages?

    Site Reviews uses its own pagination that is outside of the WordPress loop.

    In order to fix the title, you will need to add something like this in the template of your theme that prints the title meta in the <head> of your HTML: 

    // Here we assume that $title contains the value of the title meta tag of the page.
if( $pageNumber = filter_input( INPUT_GET, 'reviews-page' ) && is_numeric( $pageNumber )) {
    $title.= ' | Page '.$pageNumber;
}
