      Due to necessary pagination on the site that sells thousands of products, and due to products being assigned to more than one category in the Miva Merchant store, we have been battling duplicate content, and Meta tag issues.

      I asked lot of questions on the Miva forum on how to use rel canonical in Miva, and got this script below to use. It was supposed to solve all of our problems, but now it seems that every page of the site is under Rel Canonical Notices in the Crawl Diagnostics.

      I am not sure I am reading the Notices correctly, and if we achieved what we want or not.

      Here is an example of one listing:

      URL: http://www.domain.com/ABUS.html
      Tag Value: http://www.domain.com/
      Page Authority: 28
      Linking Root Domains: 1

        Hi ,

        SEOMOZ  tool shows you have implemented canonical tag on that page, it doesn't mean it has error always.

        Can I have your website URL ?

            I have checked your category pages, you have implemented canonical correctly so no worry about it. And SEOMOZ tool heading says it's just a notice, not a warning. It's just to alert to so that you cross verify it code and make sure things are setup correctly.
