URL with and without / doesn’t redirect

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

Those pages are loading without the trailing slash, but the canonical has a trailing slash making their different pages and hence, the error reported by Google.

​​​​​​​You need to make sure that the page URL and the canonical match exactly, and in this case, you could create a redirection to force the trailing slash into the URLs.

Unfortunately, Rank Math’s redirection could not handle this type of redirect. You may need to add a code to your .htaccess file similar to this to redirect/force the non-trailing slash URLs of your site:

# Force trailing slash
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /+[^\.]+$ 
	RewriteRule ^(.+[^/])$ %{REQUEST_URI}/ [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

Or this one:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*[^/])$ /$1/ [L,R=307]

Please take a backup of your .htaccess file before editing.

We highly recommend getting in touch with your web host for assistance in modifying your .htaccess file to ensure that the code is working properly and to avoid any unexpected issues on your site.

Hope that helps.

Thank you.

Hello,

From the link you have shared, this URL structure is opening fine without the trailing slash at the end:
https://housetohomestaging.it/la-funzione-del-design-guida-paradossale-per-auto-discolparci

I’ve also checked the other posts in your sitemap, and they are opening fine as well without trailing slash.

Hope that helps.

Thank you.

Hello,

Yes, Rank Math does not have a feature to redirect the trailing slash version, as it should be done via your server or .htaccess as I’ve mentioned above.

Looking forward to helping you.

Thank you.
