TYPO3 Extension "Remove Canonical Link"
=======================================

[](#typo3-extension-remove-canonical-link)

This extension adds a switch in page-properties to avoid that the canonical link is shown on the page in the frontend. The setting is page-based without any inheritance.

Prerequisite:
-------------

[](#prerequisite)

On existing websites it's advised to have database access with a tool like **phpMyAdmin**.

Requirements:
-------------

[](#requirements)

- A working installation of TYPO3 Version 10.4.10 or higher
- Installed extension `seo`

Installation:
-------------

[](#installation)

Download from github:

```
composer require wdb/remove-canonical-link

```

In **Admin Tools** on the page **Maintenance** click on the button **Analyze database**and asure that the field `show_canonical` is added to the table `pages`.

There is no configuration required or possible.
The extension just works as long as it's installed.

Important:
----------

[](#important)

The default setting for the new field `show_canonical` has the value `1` in the database. If this extension is used on existing websites all records have to be updated to have the value `1` in the new field:

```
UPDATE pages SET show_canonical=1;

```

Afterwards the setting can be changed on individual pages.

On new pages the value for the new field `show_canonical` will be automatically `1` in the database and has to be adjusted if the canonical linke never shall be shown.

How it's working?
-----------------

[](#how-its-working)

The extension extends the class `\TYPO3\CMS\Seo\Canonical\CanonicalGenerator` of the extension **seo** and is changing only the method `generate`. If the value `show_canonical` is `0` then an empty string for the canonical link is returned, else the orginial method of the parent class is called and everything works like defined in the seo-extension itself.

Translation
-----------

[](#translation)

The one phrase that is shown in backend is translated by google-translate to all languages that are usually shown in the translation-tool. It's likely that there are faults or improvable expressions. If you remark something like that, please file a corresponding issue on [https://github.com/DavidBruchmann/wdb\_remcanlink/issues](https://github.com/DavidBruchmann/wdb_remcanlink/issues) .
