I want to buy Hotspots Pro and CComments
I have to migrate about 7000 points from another component. And honestly I wanted to keep even my old URLs.

The old component is made like this

category1
   poi-gps-a

category2
   poi-gps-b

In all my url (of the old component) I do not have the category name, for example

http://www.website.com/component/poi-gps-a
http://www.website.com/component/poi-gps-b

and not
http://www.website.com/component/category1/poi-gps-a
http://www.website.com/component/category2/poi-gps-b
--------
Hotspots reasons differently:
and seems to use the logic of Joomla, in all the url also puts the name of the category, type:

http://www.website.com/component/category1/poi-gps-a
http://www.website.com/component/category2/poi-gps-b

I also saw that hotspots, reaches same url with 4 different addresses:
https://demo.compojoom.com/hotspots/90-highschool/100671-coeur-de-lion
https://demo.compojoom.com/hotspots/highschool/100671-coeur-de-lion
https://demo.compojoom.com/hotspots/100671-coeur-de-lion

why? :o
the seo pennalizes to get the duplicate url,nIt does not seem strange, that your quality allows things like that???

So for me, there is no chance, to make a migration while keeping the old url.
I really do not know what to do. :(

What do you recommend?
Will you make Seo updates for duplicate url?
