Tagged Blogs Creating Duplicate Meta Descriptions

[KylePet]

Hi, 

I am doing a big cleanup of my store's SEO issues, and I'm encountering an issue with the "tagged with" pages on my blog, creating duplicate meta descriptions in SEMRush. I have provided a screenshot below that showcases the issue in the report.

I have struggled to find a fix to this issue within Shopify natively and I'm considering whether this would need to be altered in the theme code. If so, could someone provide insight into how I could achieve this? I have never changed the theme code and wouldn't know where to begin.

Many thanks!

By default most themes to not allow for alternate seo fields for tagged blogs. It will be tricky to adjust this without some deep code changes. Working with a developer would be best. I dont know of any SEO apps that handle this - but I am adding it to the todo list for mine

This is what I was thinking was going to be the case, thank you for confirming

I go the solution for this -

{% if current_tags %}
<meta name="description" content="Read our blog posts tagged with {{ current_tags | join: ', ' }} to learn more about {{ shop.name }}.">
{% else %}
<meta name="description" content="{{ page_description | escape }}">
{% endif %}
