iAsked Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 (edited) Hello, I using prestashop v1.4.8.2 I wanna ask that what is happen when I enable "Automatically redirect to Canonical url" (Back Office > Preferences > SEO & URLs )? Do I need install a Canonical url module (like http://addons.presta...onical-seo.html ) for Prestashop v1.4.x.x?

Carl Favre Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Hi iAsked, To sum it up, it is to prevent you from having duplicate urls. It is used for SEO, to be sure that every product that you have can only be accessed via one url. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a module Canonical url, when I access the url domain.com/category.php?id_category=3&orderby=price&orderway=asc, it will create Canonical url like domain.com/domain.com/category.php?id_category=3. But with this option, I can't see it at header or head tag Do I need install a Canonical url module? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mexicanox Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 (edited) The post is pretty old but.... This option is to prevent your site from being accessed by two different URLs eg Your default URL domain.com / category.php? id_category = 3 & orderby = price & orderway = asca variation of URL www.domain.com/category.php?id_category=3&orderby=price&orderway=ascyour Site being accessed by IP 192.123.04/category.php? Id_category = 3 & orderby = price & orderway = asc With the option "Automatically redirect to Canonical url" if you go to 2nd or 3th URL, prestashop will show a warning that the address was moved and so on, and also shows a link to your default URL. These days, i was trying to make a mini intranet and tried accessing the prestashop over the lan, which was redirecting web requests to "localhost", have disabled the option and everything worked normally. flws Edited November 28, 2012 by mexicanox (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
