Re: Duplicate content issue

In what way?
If you're relying on user generated content then they could post duplicate content.
Apart from going in and manually there is no way.

Re: Duplicate content issue

well, every classipress job board is made of a user generated ads and there is no exception in my case. but apparently my visitors have recently developed a habit of posting duplicate ads, so their ads would be always on top. therefore, there is a great chance of getting a penalty from google because of this duplicate content. so i was wondering if there is any sort of plugin which would scan ads for duplicate ads and would automatically delete the duplicate post?

Re: Duplicate content issue

If you aren't selling ads on your site then just change the "Default New Ad Status" option to "draft" and you can manually approve each ad.

Re: Duplicate content issue

Duplicate content is also a bit of an urban myth, so I wouldn't worry about getting penalised by the big G on that front.

In Google's view, it's more important that your site provides a useful function to your visitors than worrying about duplicated content.

Re: Duplicate content issue

so no solution to duplicate posts?
