I think I\u2019ve hit upon a possible solution for eliminating duplicate title tags on recurring events. Using Yoast SEO, you can modify the variables in the template that creates the event post titles. So I can insert the variable %%date%% into the template after the existing %%title%% variable, and my title will say, for example, \u201cLive Music May 27, 2016\u201d.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, this solution inserts the date the event post was created, not the actual date of the event.<\/p>\n
Currently the only standard Yoast variable I\u2019ve found that gives me a unique title tag for each event is %%id%%, but that doesn\u2019t result in a user-friendly title. Here are two recurring events that use the ID tag to generate the title:<\/p>\n

\nhttps:\/\/sorsowineroom.com\/events\/live-music-2\/2016-12-13\/<\/p>\n
Another Custom Field Name variable available within Yoast is this: %%cf_<custom-field-name>%%. Can you identify the custom field name for the event date within an event post, so I could plug that into this variable?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1205457","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
