    Hello Rose

    I’m reviewing my website with Screaming Frog and all the TITLES, H1, and H2, of the web, on each page, are duplicates.

    In EACH OF THE PAGES of my website, in EACH OF THE PRODUCTS, in EACH OF THE POSTS, Screaming Frog detects that there are 2 equal titles, 2 equal H1, and 2 equal H2.

    Through a Seo forum, a companion, have has checked my code, and has detected the following:

    “You are designing the page with a visual layout or a template that to remove the titles, by default IS MAKING INVISIBLE, BUT NOT DEACTIVATING THEM. That’s why duplicate content is coming out of you”

    I need my pages, products, and posts, to only have 1 TITLE (and the same with the H1 … etc)

    HOW SHOULD I DO IT?

    Hello,

    Provide me links to pages where you have doubled H1 tag. We found many h2 tags at some pages but all of them are related to content that you have added, so if you want to use h2 only once then edit pages, edit texts that you added and change the h2 to any other tag that will be suitable for you.

    Hi.

    I have not gotten you to understand me.

    I’m not talking about H2 that I add in my content.

    I’m talking about this:

    https://www.rincondesilencio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Titles-duplicate.jpg
    https://www.rincondesilencio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/DUPLICATED-meditacion.jpg
    (You can see how the <title> tag is 2 times on the same page)

    https://www.rincondesilencio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/duplicated-h1.jpg

    https://www.rincondesilencio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/duplicated-h2.jpg

    They are captures of the results of Screaming Frog

    It is a matter of internal code of the Theme. Not the H2 that I decide to add.

    Having duplicate content is a big problem for SEO. But besides, it is not me who is writing 2 titles, 2 H1 or 2 H2, but it’s already this way by the code of the Theme.

    I would like my case to be reviewed by an assistant developer of woopress theme… is this possible?

    Thank you so much.

    As an example, I created the post “post test” (without any content)

    When viewed on the page, that name appears twice, so it gives me duplicate content in Screaming Frog.
    It is not enough to hide it, since Google detects it even if it is hidden. You have to eliminate it.

    I hope that with this example it is clear what the problem is.

    In the second image, extracted from the Extension “Web Developer” you can see that despite having the option “Show Product Title” in “OFF” mode, you can verify that the code of the Theme is duplicating by default, the H1

    This is terrible for SEO.

    I need to solve this.

    Hello,

    1) We have fixed issue with the double h1 tag on the single product page, also we have fixed the double title issue.
    2) h2 tags that you mentioned (description, product information) are default WooCommerce content http://prntscr.com/l0vxcp So, contact WC plugin support if you want to use another tag for these titles.
    3) So, do you want to remove title in the breadcrumbs or in the post content http://prntscr.com/l0w26q ?

    Regards

    Good Morning, Olga.

    I’m sorry but I’m afraid the problem of duplicate H1 and Titles in the code of the individual articles REMAINS UNRESOLVED.

    – This is how it looks on the web page (I have configured in Theme Options: Single Product Page- Show Product Title: OFF)

    https://www.rincondesilencio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/imagen-titulo-duplicado-3.jpg

    – But this is how the code is configured: (Image captured from the Web developer application)

    https://www.rincondesilencio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/duplicated-web-developer.jpg

    – Also in Screaming Frog Duplicated H1 continues appearing:

    https://www.rincondesilencio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/H1-duplicated.jpg

    On the other hand, all the Titles continue to be duplicated (Screaming Frog):

    https://www.rincondesilencio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/imagen-titulo-duplicado-2.jpg

    ABOUT YOUR THIRD QUESTION

    “3) So, do you want to remove title in the breadcrumbs or in the post content http://prntscr.com/l0w26q ?”

    The title I want to remove is the one in the content of the post.

    I give you an image so that there is no doubt (remove the title that is crossed out)

    Hello,

    1), 2) Looks like all the changes that we made in template fixes to fix breadcrumbs and titles are removed. Please, provide me correct FTP access to your site to fix the problem again.
    3) We’ll remove that title once you provide correct FTP.

    Good morning, Olga.

    I have changed my Server.

    I indicate the new URL and the acces data to access, in the private content box

    VERY IMPORTANT: As this is the first time you access this URL, the browser will inform you that the site has a certificate that you do not trust to be self-signed, so you can continue simply add it as an exception.

    If you have any problem, please, explain it to me.

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Thank you very much, Olga! It seems that it has been solved!

    It was a serious mistake, and I was a little worried, but as always, you have been involved until you find the solution.

    Congratulations to all the team!
