Canonical in Wix

Fix Canonical and og in Wix

Describe search index and shared post consistently. In Wix, you check the SEO settings of the specific page.

SEO settings of the specific page

Compare canonical overrides with social meta settings and supplemental code. A copied fixed URL can misrepresent the currently accessed page.

Wix creates a standard canonical URL. Check whether an own value has been stored in the extended SEO area. In the case of an inappropriate override, the return to the standard can make more sense than another day of your own.

Where to check the setting in Wix

Open the SEO settings of the affected page and check a canonical that has been overwritten. Compare this with the published URL. Just remove the wrong override; another manually supplemented tag can double the output.

Example of this specific finding

Illustrative control case: The preferred article URL is /advisor/, og:url still points to an old preview address. Divided contributions can thus be allocated inconsistently.

follow-up audit in Wix

After publication, check the public address and canonical. A modified canonical can also affect the sitemap assignment; control both together.

Match the intended public address for search index and social metadata. Document a reasonable difference instead of blindly equating two fields.

Derogations and scope

og:url is not a substitute for rel=canonical. A conflict by itself does not prove an indexation error.

Reference: published Wix/Wix Studio websites. SEO settings differ by static page, dynamic page type and installed app; do not require a freely managed server configuration.
