sitemap and duplicate url

Post by spadajoker » Sat May 28, 2022 10:23 am

hi everyody, for the first time in my life I have created a sitemap of my site and i've found many duplicate url's.
the urls are identical in all respects except one. I attach example

I have read various discussions on this topic but it is not clear to me what is the best solution to eliminate these duplicate url's and possibly limit their reappearance.

i hope in you :)

Use https://extensions.joomla.org/extension/osmap/ and generate the sitemap based on your menus.

Then you have two separate menu items pointing to the same page and the second menu item is using the same url.
