From an SEO context, having multiple links to identical content is sub-optimal, since it potentially dilutes ranking across the separate URLS. Since foo/bar/P0/ and foo/bar/ are identical, it would be good if the pagination code just generated foo/bar/ for the base page of a set.

I’m working around this with a search/replace wrapped around the pagination block, but this seems like a simple and safe thing to have in the default behavior.

Thanks.

Hi Dwerx,

I totally agree with you and was searching for a solution.  What do you mean by:

search/replace wrapped around the pagination block

NVM. I found a find and replace plugin that you were referring too.
