Hi there,<\/p>\n

We have a site that is throwing Duplicate Title SEO errors (error 200) because the client has created the same event name over and over again. We’re using Yoast SEO and rewriting titles.<\/p>\n

We thought about using the %%date%% variable in Yoast but it’s the post date. This will work but it’s far less than ideal. Is there a way to have the SEO meta title of events reflect the event date?<\/p>\n

That way we could create a structure of <event name> – <event date>. This is our ideal solution to the SEO errors.<\/p>\n

Thanks!
