Duplicate SEO Tags — Remove Legacy + Modern Meta Sets
D
Daniel Kress
Quick description (copy-paste):
HighLevel’s page builder outputs each SEO field twice: an older meta-tag format and the newer “Element Settings” format. Search engines ignore the duplicate, but tools like Screaming Frog, Ahrefs, and Sitebulb flag every page with “Duplicate meta description / title” warnings. This clutters audits and confuses users.
Why it matters
Cleaner HTML → smaller payload, faster parse.
Accurate third-party audits & no false warnings.
Less manual cleanup for agencies migrating to HighLevel.
Requested fix
Detect when both formats exist and render only one authoritative set (ideally the new format). Provide a toggle in Site Settings for backward compatibility.
One change = cleaner codebase, happier SEO teams, and fewer support tickets.Quick description (copy-paste):
