README

This module generates a canonical URL for every page of your shop. Once activated, you'll find a <link rel="canonical" href="..." /> tag in the header of your pages.

Examples

  • If the page URL is not rewritten, the canonical URL will contain all the URL parameters. Example for : For URL http://demo.thelia.net/?view=product&locale=en_US&product_id=18

    <link rel="canonical" href="http://demo.thelia.net/?view=product&locale=en_US&product_id=18" />

    Obviously, this is far from ideal. Consider activating URL rewriting !

  • When the page URL contains the script name (index.php), it will be removed from the canonical URL. Example, the canonical URL of http://demo.thelia.net/index.php?view=product&locale=en_US&product_id=18 is :

    <link rel="canonical" href="http://demo.thelia.net/?view=product&locale=en_US&product_id=18" />

    When a rewritten URL contains parameters, these parameters a removed. For http://demo.thelia.net/index.php/en_en-your-path.html?page=44, the canonical URL is :

    <link rel="canonical" href="http://demo.thelia.net/en_en-your-path" />
  • If the page URL contains a domain which is not the main shop domain, this domain is replaced by the main shop domain. For http://demo458.thelia.net/index.php/en_en-your-path.html?page=44 the canonical URL is :

    <link rel="canonical" href="http://demo.thelia.net/en_en-your-path" />
