        We can't access you personal campaigns.

        No need to "fix " Canonicals, they are a good thing.  Basicly if you have dupe pages the dupe pages all link back to the original article so google knows which article is the original.

        Basicly the blue parts of the report are notes,  yellow is warning (may or may not be a bad thing),  Red is critical (bad)

        • Is it redundant to include a redirect to my canonical domain (www) in my .htaccess file since I already have the correct rel="canonical" in my header?
