SEO settings of the specific page
Control the SEO settings and a possible canonical override. After publishing, check the real output instead of just the saved field.
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: An article page and its tracking variant provide the same text, but not a preferred URL. The variants must first be compared in terms of content.
<!-- Auf Artikel und identischer Trackingvariante -->
<link rel="canonical" href="https://example.org/ratgeber/bremsen/">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.
For these identical variants, consistently specify the clean article URL. Internal links and sitemap should give the same address.
Derogations and scope
A unique page without a canonical is not automatically unindexable. Even an existing canonical does not guarantee the selection by Google.
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.

Definition, system-independent causes and further correction examples: A missing canonical is not a blanket indexing error
