Adds own canonical even though other plugins might already have.
apermo opened this issue · comments
Describe the bug
The plugin adds a new canonical, even though others (in my case yoast) already added one.
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Install and activate Yoast & view admin as, and search the source code.
Expected behavior
Don't add a secondary canonical, even if it is just for the admin. If this ist just required for some JS, just add this to some js variable please.
Hi @apermo
This is done to fix a compatibility issue with some plugins and older WP versions (pre-4.2). It will be removed once I drop WP 4.2 support.
Keep in mind that this is only done for logged in users that have access to this plugin. For all other page views there is no extra url added :)

Yeah. I’ve seen that it’s only if logged in. But still my canonical checker plugin on chrome reported an error.
@apermo
Could you share the error?
Don’t have the Mac at Hand Right now. The error was something like „found two canonical tags“ or similar.
I'll look into this a.s.a.p. to find a alternate (better) solution.
In the meantime, once you have the time, please share all info from your dev tool.
That is the error message.
Hi @apermo
Please let me know! I have a next version ready for release once you confirm this issue is fixed :)

Hi, sorry I didn’t have time to check recently cause we’ve had some other issues. I see if I can test it tomorrow, but can’t promise anything.
Hi @apermo
I'm closing this topic as fixed in the next release.
