Hi, I have a new report from my SEO audit tool (ahrefs) telling me I now have 50+ duplicate content errors. Apparently, archive pages are missing canonical URLs. For example:
https://michelfortin.com/author/michelfortin/page/8/
https://michelfortin.com/blog/page/8/I remember this used to work before. Is this a new Rank Math bug?

Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
That is really weird, if you want we could take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/
You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-security-audit-log/
We really look forward to helping you.
Hello,
Both those pages are marked as
noindex.So, a canonical URL is not required as this will not be indexed by Google and won’t cause any duplicate content issues.
You can safely ignore the report from your audit tool as it is not considering the fact that these URLs are not indexable.
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
