Canonical Question
-
Can someone please help me with a question, I am learning about Canonical URls at the moment and have had some errors come up, it is saying ```This page has multiple rel=canonical tags.Line 9 Best Practice[](http://try.powermapper.com/Reports/89db420a-2cf2-46dc-bae4-543efbefc241/report/res/2.view.htm#)Search engine behavior is unpredictable when a page has multiple canonical tags. <link rel="canonical" href="http://www.finalduties.co.uk/" /><link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Final Duties – Low cost probate RSS Feed" href="http://www.finalduties.co.uk/feed/" /> <link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Final Duties – Low cost probate Atom Feed" href="http://www.finalduties.co.uk/feed/atom/" /><link rel="pingback" href="http://www.finalduties.co.uk/xmlrpc.php" />That canonical link to Feed? should that be there, I know the Plugin has done this but I am lost to what should be there, I have no duplicate pages as far as I am aware than needs a canonical URL ??Thanks ``` > -
Hi Chris,
Taking a look at your source code you do have two seperate instances on the "canonical" tag.
One on line 9 -
One on line 28 -The second one is being added by All in One SEO, you could disable the canonical option within AIO and you won't have this issue anymore.

Hi Sebastian,
So if I just uncheck the Tick box for <a title="Click for Help!">Canonical URLs: in the all in one settings this should sort out this problem? currently ticked as u can see below?</a>
thanks for helping, appreciate it.

That would indeed fix the issue. Although i'd check your internal pages as well to make sure the plugin that is implementing the canonical tag on line 9 is doing it properly sitewide
