Hello,

 

 

Recently I came across duplicate page name value in SiteCat, when I break them down by URLs, they are similar. Any solutions ? 

 

 

Thanks

Hopefully you have resolved it, if not you may check that pageName variable value should not contain any new-line, -em or -en dashes, or any HTML characters.

Some browsers send new line characters while others don't, which causes the data in Analytics to be split between two seemingly identical page names.

Are the pageName values having different case (upper/ lower)? pls post an example.

As a quick fix, you might want to use "processing rules" so that two or more page Name values (currently reported in SiteCat) process into a single value for a given page.
