SEO for cart.php - duplicate content

[minadreapta]

Hello,

 

our SEO guys told us our WHMCS has duplicated content at cart.php.

 

for example: cart.php?a=add&pid=30 has the same content as cart.php?a=add&pid=31 and cart.php?a=add&pid=32 and so on.

 

is there any way we can change that by adding a different little text depending on the pid number?

 

Anyone knows how to achieve this?

 

Thanks.

after searching in the forum i found this:

 

{if $filename eq "cart"}

enter some thext here...

{else}

bla bla here

{/if}

 

any ideea how to use this for cart.php and differentiate by product ids?

 

{if $filename eq "cart.php?a=add&pid=30"}

text here

{elseif $filename eq "cart.php?a=add&pid=31"}

another text here

{elseif $filename eq "cart.php?a=add&pid=32"}

other text here

{/if}

 

 

thanks.

untried, but what about something along the lines of...

 

{if $filename eq "cart" and $product.pid eq "30"}
text here
{elseif $filename eq "cart" and $product.pid eq "31"}
another text here
{elseif $filename eq "cart" and $product.pid eq "32"}
other text here
{/if}

the correct variable will depend on which step on the cart you're in.

Thanks for the suggestion Brian.

 

it works like this:

 

{if $filename eq "cart" and $pid eq "30"}
text here
{elseif $filename eq "cart" and $pid eq "31"}
another text here
{elseif $filename eq "cart" and $pid eq "32"}
other text here
{/if}

now i would like to refine a bit this code.

 

how can i get the product name variable like this:

 

{if $filename eq "cart" and $pid eq "$whatever_the_pid_is"}
$product.name here
{else}
other text
{/if}

 

do you know what is the variable for product name?

 

thanks.

do you know what is the variable for product name?

as I said it will depend where you are in the cart process...

 

quickest solution will be to add {debug} to the template you're working with and get the variable you need from the popup window.

ok, i got the variables i need, i think it's $productinfo.name and $productinfo.description

 

now what i have done looks like this:

 

{if $filename eq "cart" and $pid eq "30"}
(Product 30 name - Product 30 description)
{elseif $filename eq "cart" and $pid eq "32"}
(Product 32 name - Product 33 description)
{elseif $filename eq "cart" and $pid eq "33"}
(Product 33 name - Product 303 description)
...
...
...
{/if}

 

how can i setup the script so it takes the values automatically?

 

like

{if $filename eq "cart" and $pid eq "$pid"}
($productinfo.name - $productinfo.description)

 

thanks.
