Hi there!
I'm running a Magento store, and want to activate the 'canonical URL' option for products, as I see in Google Search Console that URLs similar to the ones below are causing product descriptions to be seen as duplicate:
http://shop.season-of-mist.com/set-it-off-duality-lp
http://shop.season-of-mist.com/vinyl/set-it-off-duality-lp
Canonical URL option in Magento should solve this problem, right now it's deactivated. BUT, what I'm worried about, our website is available in two languages (English and French). So the product links look as follows:
http://shop.season-of-mist.com/set-it-off-duality-lp (english)
https://shop.season-of-mist.com/set-it-off-duality-lp?___store=default_fr (french)
My worry is that activating canonical URLs for products will cause the French pages to not be indexed anymore. Is this concern justified?
Thank you in advance,
Willem
