    Default Duplicate content issues?

    On the "area real estate" pages, the content is populated for every single page that lists properties - i.e. same content on page 1, 2, 3.......

    Would this not lead to duplicate content issues? Is it possible for content to not populate past the page1?

    Hello,

    It is possible - I've installed 2 snippets ..... #top# and #bottom# ... if you wrap these snippets around the content on your area pages then it will only show up on the main area page. I didn't test them - so let me know if it give you any errors.

    Thank you,

    Thanks Aaron, but I am not sure I follow how to do what you suggested.

    Another question is regarding the search form, specifically the lot size. Is it possible to put an option to query the lot size either in acres or sq. ft? I would make searches more user friendly. Something like, a box to put in the numerical value and then select either acres or sq.ft.?

    On the property details pages, is it possible to show DOM and any price changes? I am sure from a programming point of view it probably is a small job, just wasn't sure if my board allows it. So this question may be more for Reed to answer......

    Thanks,

    Sapan

    I've set up an example for you on this page.

    http://www.bcfarmandhome.com/langley.php

    In the backend notice the 2 snippets #top# and #bottom# that wrap the content area.


    As far as the other requests - it would be best to discuss them in a work order thread. I'm not sure if the data provides a days on market - and the price changes might not actually be a small job to set up ( unless 3-5hrs programming is a small job)
