Wrong canonical values

Hi guys,

I have a 9.7.5 solution where I have canonicals being rendered wrong.
I have samples from the acceptance version, but it also happens in production and development.
This messes up the SEO :(

I can't find anything on the forum on this subject ...

I have a page with no value set for the canonical in the page properties:

I have the canonical checkbox set to true:

Now the following gets rendered automagically in the head section of my website:

But the value is all wrong ..
As if it is trying to make an absolute URL from a relative URL, but it was already absolute in the first place ...

Is there another setting somewhere to fix this?
Or has it been fixed in a core update, but I couldnt find the release notes on this?
Or is it something you need to look into?

Kind regards,

-Peter-

Hi Peter

TFS#75456 is a fix related to absolute URLs in canonicals. See https://doc.dynamicweb.com/downloads/releases/bug-fixes/bug-fixes-for-9-8#sideNavTitle1-2-9

It does sound like that is the issue.

There are also some major changes in canonicals for 9.8: https://doc.dynamicweb.com/downloads/releases/release-notes/dw-9-8-release-notes
