Exclude site from report only

Open stuartcusackie opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

I have an unusual localised site set up - It's for the Irish language (Gaeilge - ga). Only about half of the content on the /ga/ site is translated. It's a 50/50 mix of English and Irish.

At the moment generating a report throws up 200 warnings for articles with duplicate titles. These articles will never be fully translated but they still need to exist as separate entries under the /ga/ site. It could be bad practice having two pages with identical titles, but I'm hoping Google will be clever enough to use the site locale tag to show appropriate search results.

Anyway, I would like to be able to hide this locale from reports, or perhaps a report should only be generated against one locale at a time? I still want to render the meta tags, and keep the page listed in the sitemap, but that doesn't seem possible at the moment.

Thanks.

Or maybe they should just be validated as unique within each site, not comparing titles to titles from other sites 🤔

@jesseleite That would work for me and I can't see any negatives to it. I do believe the search engines won't mind duplicate titles if they know they are for different locales, but then I'm not expert on that.
