Implementing CMS Load on our site, I’m seeing duplicated items. I’ve seen this a couple of other posts, but can’t seem to find the issue on our site. The goal is to add pagination, but I removed that for now to troubleshoot. Even with only the “Load more” basic custom attribute, I’m still seeing the last 5 items duplicated in the collection.

Hi @tom.groom!

The issue is caused by a duplicate attribute.  
Please remove `fs-cmsload-element="list"` from the **Collection List Wrapper** element.

 ![Sin título](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/finsweet1/original/2X/0/05d23eb2984b5c73b1c82b85b86d54987701585e.png)

Then keep the attribute on the **Collection List** and add `fs-cmsload-mode="pagination"`.

Let me know if it works for you!

Hey @Support-Pedro thanks for looking into this.

I updated per your instructions and am running into the same issue I saw previously when trying to implement pagination. There are 11 items in the collection total, and the collection is set to show 6 items / page.

You’ll see that the pagination is working, but it creates 3 buttons of pagination (not the expected 2). It seems to create a duplicate of all of the first page items.  
You will also notice that if you click “next” it will skip over the second page and go directly to “3”.

Thanks,

Tom

I came to post the same thing, so posting here instead of a new topic.

Same issue, all of a sudden my collection here is starting to duplicate items, I don’t know if it’s the filters or load more, I have these 2 attributes here plus the nest.

It was working alright but the client just raised the problem of duplicated items.

Hey @tom.groom!

You also seem to have a duplciated CMS Load script. Can you please check your site settings and remove the script if present?

 ![Screenshot 2025-03-26 at 16.30.16](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/finsweet1/original/2X/5/50c7d22e676c6bf6ee03a3a265170a4022bf04b7.jpeg)

This should fix the current issues but do let me know if the page button issue persists!

Hey @info6!

Your issue could be related to the Iubenda cookie manager, this library seems to load our scripts multiple times.

You can check this thread as an example

> [@Finsweet CMS filter + CMS Load showing duplicates](https://forum.finsweet.com/t/finsweet-cms-filter-cms-load-showing-duplicates/4216):
>
> Hello. When using the filter and load on our website, duplicate results are showing when you search the filter. CMS load is showing all items (\<100) but when it gets to the end of the list, it is duplicating the list a second time (and is no longer in alphabetical order). Please can you suggest a fix? [https://preview.webflow.com/preview/ulster-independent-clinic?utm\_medium=preview\_link&utm\_source=designer&utm\_content=ulster-independent-clinic&preview=637742d1d94cf828e68ebdbd219dfa25&pageId=65…](https://preview.webflow.com/preview/ulster-independent-clinic?utm_medium=preview_link&utm_source=designer&utm_content=ulster-independent-clinic&preview=637742d1d94cf828e68ebdbd219dfa25&pageId=655246dcc4ed6cd668d45d23&workflow=preview)

Or this other thread

> [@CMS Load and too many pages](https://forum.finsweet.com/t/cms-load-and-too-many-pages/3352):
>
> Hey, I have set up CMS Load with pagination a couple of times already. Currently, though, I have a project where the pagination pages are not being calculated correctly: there should be 3 pages, but it shows 5. It is like two pages are being duplicated and appended. I double-checked everything and everything is configured exactly like in another project where everything is working just fine. Has this been an issue for somebody before, maybe, and there is an easy fix, hopefully? Thank you. S…

Can you check your setup and let me know if this fixes the issue?

Hi Luis,

I don’t believe we are using the Lubenda cookie manager. I did see the previous posts and also tried to implement the solution (just in case) by adding

```auto
data-cmp-ab="2"

```

like this

```auto
<script async src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@finsweet/attributes-cmsload@1/cmsload.js" data-cmp-ab="2"
></script>

```

But it doesn’t seem to solve the problem.  
Thanks,

Tom

Hey @tom.groom! I think you read my response for @info6 😅

You have a duplicated CMS Load script in your setup. This causes several issues, as the script is essentially loaded twice.

I am resharing the image from my earlier reply

My bad Luis. Thanks — looks like the previous developer had this in the settings for the site and I didn’t notice it. Thanks for the help.
