      Hi,

      We have some state specific pages that display dynamic content based on the state that is selected here.

      For example this page displays new york based content.

      But for some reason google is no longer ranking these pages. Instead it's defaulting to the page where you select the state here.

      But last year the individual state dynamic pages were ranking. The only change we made was move these pages from http to https. But now google isn't seeing these individual dynamically generated state based pages.

      When I do a site: url search it doesn't find any of these state pages.

      Any thoughts on why this is happening and how to fix it. Thanks in advance for any insight.

      Eddy

      By the way when I check these pages in google search console fetch as google, google is able to see these pages fine and they're not being blocked by any robot.txt.

        Have you checked that no robot is blocking them? Are you sure?
