Hello,
Thanks for contacting us, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
You’ll also need to disable Noindex Subpages option (above Noindex Paginated Single Pages) to index the sub pages.
Hope that helps, and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
Thank you.
Hi, I did disable both. Now when I do a live test in GSC, it still says: “noindex’ detected in ‘robots’ meta tag”
I tested domain.com/page/2/

Hello,
Please try clearing your website cache to see if that works for you.
Can you please share the affected URLs with us? So that we can investigate the issue further for you.
Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.
Hi Sakib, it’s indexed now. But I’m having issues with duplicate title tag and meta description. Do you know how to optimize pagination like in this image below?

Hello,
To avoid duplication error, you may try using our variables on title and description for your paginated URLs.
To show page count you can use %page% variable in your title and for description you may use %excerpt% or %seo_description% as well.
You can find out more variables to use in title and descriptions from the URL I’ve shared below:

Thank you.
Hi Sakib, I appreciate the help. But I’m confused as to where should I put the %page% title and its excerpt for meta description on Pagination Pages. I tried to find one at Titles & Meta > Misc Pages, there’s nothing there.
Can you help me? Thanks
Hello,
I apologize for the confusion, you may not be able to set the variables in our settings since these pages are generated dynamically. Usually, the theme should display the page numbers for your title to give it a unique title whenever you visit a different page number. Can you please confirm if that isn’t the case on your end?
Please share the affected pages in the sensitive data section so we can further take a closer look.
Looking forward to helping you.
