issue with articles with TOC ?

15 years 4 months ago #4621 by Greg
Hello

So when we have an article with a toc, for example, with three pages.

so we have, the start url:
...200903191334.html

the first page:
...200903191334/1.html

the second:
...200903191334/2.html

and the last (all):
...200903191334/all.html

But I don't understand why, in my google webmaster tools, googlebot manage to see (and return them as duplicates) much others non existents  pages.
...200903191334/92.html
...200903191334/99.html
...200903191334/23.html
etc...

I think this is not really normal that we can access the article with any random number for the toc, like if I try this:
...200903191334/2599.html
I access the article !! with empty content.

shouldn't we have some 404 instead ?

And perhaps this is not a Sef Advance related question, but only related to the joomla code itself.
Like a test toc condition (if..exist=ok.else..404)

Thanks for considering this case.

Joomla 3.4.3 / SefAdvance 1.8.0 / AJAX Register 1.8.8 / virtuemart 3.0.9.4 / PHP 5.4.43

The problem is at Joomla level. Even without SEF a link like http://domain/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=26&Itemid=40&limitstart=333 is accessible.
Not really up to SEF Advance to correct.

There are many other examples but it's not really worth worrying about, such links do not exists. How does Google find them? Probably generates them randomly.
