Overview

Canonical URL for Magento

This extension adds the new canonical links to the head of your Magento pages, for a more in-depth explanation, see Yoast.com. More about Magento SEO in general at Yoast.

Warning

The latest version of this module is only compatible with Magento 1.4. For Magento 1.3 and below please download the 1.3 release, magento-community/canonical_url-1.3

Please note that this extension is provided as is. It is recommended to always backup your installation prior to usage.

Note

Magento 1.4 supports the canonical tag by core. To enable the tag for the category and product page go to: System=>Configuration=>Catalog=>Search Engine Optimization and enable: Use Canonical Link Meta Tag For Categories and Use Canonical Link Meta Tag For Products. For now the Yoast module has only some small advantages, please reconsider the usage of this extension.

For the new way the module gets the canonical URL at product pages it is important that Mage::getSingleton('catalog/url')->refreshRewrites(); is executed. Normally this will happen with the install of the module but please check the canonical url at your product page. If you get a 404 for this url change change the value of "add category to product url" at your backend, save, change it back and save again. Now the url shouldn't give a 404 error. Note for 1.3 and earlier - Fooman Speedster If you use Canonical URLs for Magento together with the Fooman Speedster module, you need to overwrite the Canonical module with this download. Send all your questions and remarks about this extension to magento [ at ] yoast . com.

Changelog

1.4 - Now compatible with Fooman Speedster and AW_Blog
- The setting "Force traling slash" now also force the XML sitemap to use a traling slash
- Frontend design in 1.4 style (base)

1.3 - some performance improvements. 0.1.6 - bug fixed for products without a sitemap URL, e.g. visibility "search"

Hi, When i tried to install the plugin via Magento connect, it shows such error...Couldn't resolve host 'magento-community'...I went to Magento connect manager > Setting...changed to beta/alpha...but didn't workout with any of the setting. My magento connect version is 1.7... how can i install is via magento connect...any suggestion? January 31, 2013

I use Magento 1.6.2.0, installation worked. After a while (mb after cache was cleared or smt) I couldnt reach my frontend Pages, always got a 404 (also couldn't reach admin, only .\downloader). So i removed all caches on FTP and tried to find the problem. Finally after i deinstalled this, it got back to work. Not sure what the problem was, but I wont install it anymore and suggest other with the same Version to be careful aswell, good thing the .\downloader still worked! October 4, 2012

You don't need it in Magento 1.7.0.2 - To add Canonical URL you've to go under System - Catalog - Search Engine Optimization. It's alrady integrated. August 23, 2012

Have just installed this on the latest version 1.7.0.0-rc1 and it works great with no problems. March 29, 2012

Installed this without any problems on 1.6.2.0 from Connect. However, I suspect something still doesn't work as it should because even if all pages get the canonical link in head, it just gives a link to the same url as the page was opened as. This seems pretty useless as I thought the idea is as with AW Blog that the blog post has exactly 1 preferred url but that doesn't happen. If page is opened from category, that goes into the canonical, if from a tag then that goes in to the canonical and so on... And yes I have switched on everything... I know this isn't a support channel and I'm not asking for support, just reporting my experience. Obvious as this extension was written for an earlier release of Magento, something must have changed that even if it doesn't crash it still it doesn't seem to give the desired result. Unless I haven't got all this wrong... If I find something I will report back here, but if you installed this "successfully" still you need to check it really work as advertised for you or you may even be worse off with Google than before, if every url variant of the page claim to "be the one". Also to refresh what already been said further down, this extension IS necessary also on later versions of Magento as the built in support only goes for product and category pages, but not for other content like Blog and CMS etc. March 5, 2012

I get the error message 'invalid package identifier provided' everytime I try to install one of your extensions. Tried to change the preferred state but that unfornately doesn't work. February 27, 2012

I installed it in our magento 1.4.1.1 but it doesn't work. I tried to mail the developer but there's error "There were members listed in your Recipients or CC fields that are unable to receive Private Messages. They have been removed by the system and you may try sending again." February 15, 2012

Works with 1.6 :) February 8, 2012

I have one word for this components: fantastic! Support if very very the best! January 15, 2012
