Duplicate page title and content

[Casey]

We are getting thousands of duplicate page titles and duplicate content warnings in SEOmoz. All of the errors are directly related to this plugin. We have many weekly recurring events, which is resulting in the creation of 10,000+ event pages with the same content, title, etc etc. Also, it seems like the plugin creates a URL for every day of the year(s!) which is also causing even more problems.

Does anyone have a solution for this? Ideally I would like to just have 1 URL for every event, and just show it on the calendar, instead of having thousands of the same thing. And is there a way to not generate a date based archive URL unless there is an actual event on that day?

Just looking for solutions before I just block search engines from crawling these pages all together.

EDIT: I found the conditional statements that will help out with the duplicate page titles. Still need suggestions on the duplicate content.

Hi Casey,

Can you use the same conditional statements for the duplicate content as well?
