Hi,

For a specific category on my website, I changed the category template style as follows:
Category Template = Style 2
Category Top Posts Style = Grid 3
Rest all defaults.

I also added some text as category description for SEO purpose and all working fine.

BUT, in view source, the category description appears twice which is not good w.r.t SEO. Search Engines will consider it as duplicate/repeating text.

Why this duplicate content as added only once on page? How to fix the issue?

Regards,
Imran

Hello Imran,

Do you have SEO Yoast plugin installed on your website? Check if you have not entered in the plug-in the category description.

Thanks for your understanding!

Hi Catalin,

I have installed SEO Yoast plugin and also have provided the Meta description for that category in plugin. There is nothing like category description in YOAST SEO plugin.

Check out the below page and viewsource have repeating text.
