I’m wondering is there a way we can remove traling slash(/) in the end of url. As it looks awful, also in canonical url, other thing is if we check there canonical status its showing without slash. So it will be a major drawback as google will consider two different urls.

2) why Canonical url is not showing Correct Locations for all city urls ?

One more major problem is of location urls. Whenever i’m checking different city canonical urls. Each City, Region and Country is showing the same location url. for ex.

<link rel=”canonical” href=”http://example.com/location/”

Thanks

1) trailing slashes are added by WordPress itself. There is probably some way to remove them, but I would stay away from it, you could badly mess up GD permalinks. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-trailing-slash-1?replies=6#post-2514126 We are not going to provide extra support for this unless +50% of members request it. Trailing slash are totally fine from our point of view.

Canonical URLs are correct: http://wpgeo.directory/restaurants/

<link rel="canonical" href="http://wpgeo.directory/restaurants/" />

There is no way Google will flag any GD page as duplicate.

2) I’ve flagged this for the developers. We’ll let you know soon if there is a reason. I agree the canonical URL should be the same as the page.

Thanks

We’ll keep you posted.
