      Hello,

      I was hoping to get some help or tips on how to best control the canonical tag on a Magento based website.

      When you go into the Magento admin and enable the option to use the canonical tag on pages, all that does is input the canonical tag to the exact page just with the http:// in the url.

      My goal is to use the canonical tag on specific pages and point it to other pages, not just the same page with an http://

      For example, right now for page:

      example.com/question/baseball the canonical tag is pointing to http://example.com/question/baseball

      What i want is to be able to do is take:

      example.com/question/baseball and have the canonical tag point to example.com/question/baseballbats

      Is this possible?  Does what I'm saying make sense?

      Please let me know what you all think.... Thanks!
