I recently noticed this in my Google Search Console - there are 2 articles that I recently updated the canonical url to point to my new url and they show as "non-canonical" in the console though.
I guess I might start taking the 'wait a few days' approach to posting too 🙃
Thanks for the comment @terabytetiger
, nice to have another data point – great username btw 🐯
Google Search Console was showing my article as having been crawled, but not indexed. I think the correct terminology is "Submitted by not indexed". I can't recall if I then manually requested indexing or if it was just indexed in time.
Interesting that your pages display as "non-canonical" 🤔 Are they showing in Google Search Results at all?
Thanks! I recently choose the new name and am happy with it! 😄
This is the specific message I see:
It doesn't look like my site shows for this specific search - but I requested a manual re-index for the associated pages recently. Hopefully it will help 🤞
Which articles is it that aren't showing up in the search results right now? Thanks for the screenshot 👍 Could you let me know if the problem is resolved?
Side note (and sorry if things are WIP right now and you know this already): your Blog page renders fine on the first (SSR) render, but not when I click the links in the navigation (presumably CSR). The same goes for the Lessons page actually – seems to be an issue with invalid Dates.
Looks like you're not setting the <link rel="canonical" href="https://terabytetiger.com/lessons/articles/vue-rainbow/"> on that page? The metaInfo property on pages and templates should help you there 👍
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>

Dates.terabytetiger.com/lessons/articles... is one of them. I'll definitely be back if I find a solution 😄
Not sure I understand/am seeing the errors with the pages - everything seems to be working fine for me.
Do you get console errors or could share screenshots? Thanks for letting me know!

Errors that I see in the console:Hmm, this is weird 🤔 I don't see anything in Edge (Chromium) Beta on Windows. Which browser are you using?
I recently swapped out Moment for date-fns. Maybe that has something to do with it?
Swapped back to Moment.js - maybe that solves it?
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 😅
