SEO rel=”canonical” – issue

[Eduard]

Hi!

On four pages have doubles rel = “canonical”.

These pages (for example, your demo site).

http://seventhqueen.com/themes/kleo/members/

http://seventhqueen.com/themes/kleo/groups/

http://seventhqueen.com/themes/kleo/activity/

http://seventhqueen.com/themes/kleo/register/

 

Yoast SEO plugin inserts it double.

Below advice SEO advisor:

In cases of multiple declarations of rel = canonical, Google will likely ignore all the rel = canonical hints, so your efforts to avoid duplicate content issues may go useless.

 

Can do you recommend something? Thank you.

Hi,

You can disable one of the canonical tag by using this function adding in kleo-child/function.php

COPY CODE

// Remove Canonical Link Added By Yoast WordPress SEO Plugin
function at_remove_dup_canonical_link() {
	return false;
}
add_filter( 'wpseo_canonical', 'at_remove_dup_canonical_link' );

Thanks Radu!

You’re welcome

I given a closer look into the issue and you should better use this snippet :

COPY CODE

# Remove WordPress' canonical links
remove_action('wp_head', 'rel_canonical');

Instead of the code provided you earlier.

Best Regards

This is how I understand the file kleo-child/function.php?
If so, replace the snippet in this file and effect is not produced.
I also have the double rel = ‘canonical’ on pages.

Hi,

If the second code doesn’t work please use the first code.

The child theme needs to be active.

The first solution is generally removes all rel=”canonical” on all pages. Unfortunately, this is not the solution to this problem.

I have given an deeper look into this issue and this happens only in buddypress pages.
The conflict is between Yoast SEO and BuddyPress plugin, and please note that our theme doesn’t touches any logic related to the canonical meta tags.

I recommend you to contact the author of the Yoast SEO and report this issue.

Cheers
