Avoiding Duplicate `page/1` Pagination URLs in Evolution CMS
How to avoid duplicate first-page pagination URLs such as `page/1` in Evolution CMS.
Pagination becomes an SEO problem the moment the first page of a listing is accessible in two forms: the clean base URL and an explicit page/1 variant. Search engines see duplicates, internal linking gets noisy, and canonical behavior becomes inconsistent.
The reported pattern was familiar:
section/section/page/1section/page/2
Only one of the first two should exist publicly. The correct setup is usually to keep the base listing URL for page one and reserve page/2, page/3, and so on for subsequent pages.
In practical Evolution CMS terms, that means checking the pagination generator, the rewrite rules, and any canonical logic together. If even one layer still outputs page/1, the duplicate path comes back.
This is a small detail with outsized SEO impact, especially on news, catalog, and tag archive pages.
