    Hello RankMath 🙂
    So if i set my robots meta tag to (“No index”), its removing canonical url.
    The problem is im using ahref as crawler bot, but i get a lot of error of Duplicate pages without canonical.

    The problem is the canonical is working if i set my site to (“index”), but i wish not to have the sites index on google, but the canonical should still work, but it doenst cause everytime i set my page to (“no index”) then rankmath removing the tag in the source code

    Do you have any solution to this ?

    Hello,

    Thanks for contacting us.

    We only add the canonical URL to pages that are set to index, if you have enabled the option to noindex the paginated pages the canonical won’t show up on those pages.

    The canonical URL is used to inform the search engine crawlers about the original content and stop them from indexing the duplicate content. Since you have already stopped your pages from getting indexed, you don’t need a canonical tag.

    If you want to add the canonical URL then you will set the pages to index and then you can set the canonical URL as the URL of the page with original content from the Advanced Tab of Rank Math’s meta box.

    You don’t need to worry about the pages getting indexed as if the canonical URL is set as the URL of the original page then Google will identify these pages as duplicate content and will not index them.

    Hope this helps. Let us know if you need any further assistance.
