Restrict Page Overlay to a single page (SEO duplicate content)
-
Hi, I need to restrict a Page Overlay to appear on only one specific page of my website
I use Page Overlays to display four secondary projects on my About page. Users open them by clicking a link in the About page text ( https://www.ceciliapiazza.com/chi-sono/ ). This is intentional — the projects are minor and I like that they're accessible only from there.
The problem is that the overlay HTML is currently being loaded on every page of the site. Since this content is quite long (four project descriptions), it's being interpreted as duplicate content across the whole site by Google.
I need an option or a code snippet to make the overlay content appear in the HTML only on the specific page (chi-sono), and not be output on any other page.
I've looked in Lay Options → Page Overlays but I couldn't find anything like "Assign to page" or "Show only on" setting.
Is this possible with Lay Theme? Either through an existing setting I might have missed, or through a small custom code snippet you could share?
Thanks a lot!
