Hi all

No idea whats caused this; def one of teh frustraions of this life when you're not a programmer!

My onpage SEO tool indicates that the canonical URL is set to

www.XXXX.com/blog

on the homepage i.e. it should really state

www.XXXX.com

Any advice really really appreciated, I've spent best part of three hours trying to fix it........

Thanks all!!.

Just solved it - the SEO plugin had gone haywire. Deactivating it, deleting it then reload/ reactivating it made all the difference!

Glad you found it, I was just going to share how to do it through .htaccess
