a) they must be absolute i.e. prefixed by https://yourdomain.com/
b) they must be identical on both the DEV post and the original article (right down to the presence of trailing slashes)
c) they need to be <link rel="canonical" href="...">, not <meta>
Hi Tyler, that seems to have fixed it, yes 👷♂️👍
I'm using Firefox btw 🔥 🦊
Quick note on canonical tags:
a) they must be absolute i.e. prefixed by
https://yourdomain.com/b) they must be identical on both the DEV post and the original article (right down to the presence of trailing slashes)
c) they need to be
<link rel="canonical" href="...">, not<meta>Oh yay! I'm glad it's working! 🎉
Thank you so much for the tips! I (clearly) have no idea what I was doing with these 😅 This was extremely helpful 💕
You're very welcome Tyler! I've banged my head against this very wall so I'm happy to help you avoid doing the same 😅
