Google Duplicate Content Manager vs 1.0 alpha
for osCommerce Online Merchant v2.2
Google Duplicate Content Manager
Version 1.0 alpha
What is it for?
Google webmaster tools is currently showing duplicate title/descriptions caused by basic oscommerce functions. This script intends to both remove the duplicates then prevent reoccurance.
The URL I want indexed ..
/my-great-product-c-47.html
Duplicates: -
/my-great-product-c-47.html?page=2&sort=2a
/my-great-product-c-47.html?page=3&sort=3d
/my-great-product-c-47.html?language=en
/my-great-product-c-47.html?currency=GBP
ad infinitum.
There are two modes available:
$IhaveDuplicateContent = true; Exists to remove duplicate titles and descriptions from Google by adding relevant text to the front of title/description/keywords creating a unique page.
$IhaveDuplicateContent = false; Exists to prevent duplicates occuring in the first instance.
NOTE: This service does not cater for duplicate links caused by the creation of duplicate cPaths by adding a category to multiple parents. This is a point for future discussion.
Other Settings:
Turn service On/Off
Array of $_GET variables to react to.
Installation:
Very simple to install:
Upload one class file.
Add a line to the bottom of application_top.php
add 1 line above the code that prints your meta in index.php (and potentially other files)
add 2 lines below the code that prints your meta in index.php.
Done.
Test Before You Add/Change any Files:
Included is a standalone test file that you can simply upload to your server .. call it directly and it will give instructions on how to test.
