Joomla, Canonical Extension

by Matt Hoey
2 replies
Has anyone found an extension or solution to tagging duplicate pages within Joomla with the rel=canonical tag yet?

I can't seem to find anything. I've just changed hosts for more mysql databases and for the mod_rewrite feature but there are still some duplicate urls so i'd really like to find a way of tagging these extra urls with the tag if possible.

I use joomlas built in SEF, not SH404 plugin because i hear it can mess your website up.

    Here is an interesting Youtube video from Matt Cutts discussing canonical content:


    The video is dated Feb. 12, 2009, so very recent.

    Here is a module that supposedly handles duplicate content but I haven't tried it:

    Thanks, having trouble installing the damn plugins now. I think the permissions are wrong but as far as i can tell i've set as many as possible on the server.
