Events Calendar Causes Google Crawl Errors

[hydeaway]

We have 98 Soft 404s and about 50 404 Not Found errors caused by Events Calendar. Why does this happen and how can I fix it?

It also generates duplicate title tag, duplicate meta description and short meta description errors.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for reaching out!

It’s worth noting here that soft 404s may not be a big issue, if they aren’t affecting anything on your site.  I know that you are concerned about your SEO, and that is a common issue.  Please take a look at this Knowledgebase article that we have about this exact issue, to give you some more insight and explanation: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/404_and_seo/

If you deactivate all other plugins and revert to a default WordPress theme, like ‘Twentseventeen’, do you still see the same issue?

Let me know!

 

Thanks,

Jaime
