Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.
I added the following code to your theme functions.php to have the canonical for the specified pages set to homepage. You can change it to the URL you intend for your canonical.
/**
* Allow changing of the canonical URL.
*
* @param string $canonical The canonical URL.
*/
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/canonical', function( $canonical ) {
$url = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
$urlLength = strlen($url);
$isItService = strpos($url, 'service');
$isItProject = strpos($url, 'project');
if (($isItService!==false || $isItProject!==false) && $urlLength <=11)
{
$canonical = "https://www.catseo.co.uk/";
}
return $canonical;
});
Changing the canonical should automatically remove a page from the sitemap. Please check your sitemap and let us know.
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
Thank you very much!
I appreciate your help.
Kind regards,
Krisztina
