Hi,
I just find out that there is a problem with GSC. It shows a problem with every product page of xstore. About 3 weeks ago everything was correct and now it shows problem in RED with: duplicated field brand”. The problem appears on every product page.

Hello, @Pites,

Actually, the duplicate content issue is not coming because of our theme. The error is related to the content you add on your product. Usually, this kind of error appears when you copy the content from your site, other pages or from the other site and then you try to index your site on Google Search Console and it will find the issue and throws an error. That’s why on every page of the site Google prefers to add or use unique content so the user will be entertained. It’s Google policy and you can read more about it here: https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2006/12/deftly-dealing-with-duplicate-content

Now, to fix the issue I found an article for you please go through with it: https://www.searchenginejournal.com/technical-seo/duplicate-content-issues/#close and read the complete article for a better understanding to know what is the cause of the issue and how you can fix it.

Regards 8Themes Team.

But, we have the same page layout for every product so when we add new one, we copy one and change text. So how to do it ?

Hello, @Pites,

Try to create a staging site, and on it please Install the theme and then simply create 2 unique and totally different products on it, and then check the result.

Otherwise, you can try with any third-party plugin for SEO as well, like the Yoast SEO or RankMath SEO plugin, if anyone provides the functionality to solve your issue, you can concern with the plugin Authors first.

Regards 8Themes Team.

I think the problem is not with duplicate product page but with field “brand” which in in xstore plugin product site. I do not add it, it appear in BRANDs when you can add a different brands names:
\/aromatherapyoils.pl”}}],”brand”:[{“@type”:”Brand”,”name”:”AromatherapyOils”}]}< and in field category where also is "brand": /uploads/2023/02/olejek-copaiba-.jpg","sku":"A1654","brand":{"@type":"Brand","name":"Wiosenne Olejki & Blendy"} GSC shows the proplem there. Product pages must be repeated and have common features, it is inevitable. Copying product pages and filling them with new data also. If there is no such possibility in the application, why use it, if we have to create every page of the product from a scratch, and if I have 300 of them, then using such an application is pointless!!!

Hello, Pites,

Duplication of brand was caused by this setting -> https://prnt.sc/jSf2W0pQYAFM inside Squirrly SEO (Peaks) plugin’s settings. By default WooCommerce plugin adds such information by default and it exists on the product’s page anyway -> https://prnt.sc/9ySzGBmbyNAo

Also, it is important to mention Squirrly SEO (Peaks) plugin makes product’s categories be shown as brands in code -> https://prnt.sc/QgRlzGeGEals so it is an issue in their code because the ‘brand’ is ‘brand’ and the ‘product category’ is ‘product category’.
For now, we disabled https://prnt.sc/jSf2W0pQYAFM option and you may retest your products.

Kind regards,
8theme team

Hello, Pites,

2 brands are not visible via the browser inspector tool – https://aromatherapyoils.pl/sklep/olejek-imbirowy-zingiber-officinale/ https://prnt.sc/bjnM_0xAbBwk

Please clear all caches and test this product then.

I think that all pages must be reindexing because GSC stil shows errors. I cleared cache all the time.

Hello, Pites,

Good idea, then make a force reindex on your product pages, and let us know the result.
