      Hello,

      I checked my site and it looks like everything is setup correctly for canonical url but I keep getting the message that it's not.

      Am I doing something wrong?

      SORRY I FIGURED IT OUT! THANK YOU! HOW DO I DELETE THIS?

          All you need is to add rel="canonical" href="" /> to your head section. What sort of issues are you having?

              Those two pages look fine. Are those pages showing up as an issue in your Moz crawl?

                Then I think I m fine , I use canonical for all pages. But still MOZ  giving suggestion that you might have canonical issue.. may be just warning  I think...

                  It's just a notice, saying "hey, this is here, take a look and make sure all is OK"
