WordPress Plugin calls app.ecwid.com twice
-
I am noting problems with my WordPress ECWID site scoring low on SEO/crawling stats. I am not getting indexed as often as I expected.
In reviewing the issue, I come across many places where product/store shows up 2x in certain “browsers” which analyze the site. I also see duplicated info when doing Google Search Console on a product.
I started off on a vanilla site and see the same issue.
What I can see in the html of an ECWID site which uses the WP plugin is there is 2 separate calls to “https://app.ecwid.com/script.js when using it. If you were to set-up a separate page using the generic ECWID integration code it properly only calls the JS one time.
The symptom can be seen best by using https://www.google.com/webmasters/markup-helper/ on the product pages
Even though it isn’t visually shown twice to the end user, it “technically” is loaded twice and web crawlers will penalize you for duplicate information and slowness of page loading 2x. (though I did have problems with the store showing twice with certain cache settings/optimization)
For example:
