Hello,

I checked Webmaster Tools and found out that many easydiscuss links need HTML Improvement as they have Duplicate meta descriptions.

For example, pages with duplicate meta descriptions:
/forum/post_topic/latest
/forum/post_topic

Another example:
/forum/post_topic3
/forum_questions/category/post_topic3

Maybe you have any suggestions how to avoid duplicate meta desciptions.
Hello Dalia,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. There's already a canonical link on these pages. If you try to view the source of the page you should be able to see these canonical links. Do you see them?

Yes, I see rel="canonical" next to that link. So does that mean that theres old webmaster data and now there would not be errors?

Thank you for your help!

Hello Dalia,

Yes, because according to Google's documentation, they will respect canonical links, https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/139066?hl=en
