Introduction

What does it do?

In TYPO3 a single webpage can be called up via various URLs: e.g. "1drop.de", "1drop.de/index.php?id=123", "1drop.de/?id=123", "1drop.de/home.html" …

This extension informs search engines in two different (optional) ways about the main URL of your webpage:

  • Set the canonical link tag of the main URL.
  • 301 Redirect to the main URL.

Optionally use "/" for the startpage.

Users manual

There is nothing to do for the user.

Administration

Import and Install this extension.

Check if the extension is included automatically. By default it only sets the canonical header in the html source:

<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.1drop.de/" />

If the extension should not be included automatically, please add it manually:

page.1001 < plugin.tx_odsseo_pi1

Alternatively check the name of your page template (page) and install patch 0001525 (in case you have installed other extensions using automatic inclusion).

Configure SEO Buddy using the Constant Editor:
