Forum Archive - General version canonical tag in joomla 3

Hello guys, We are using the joomla 3 and zoo component. We want to modify the canonical tag for zoo catagery/item. We want to insert language code into the canonical tag. For example: <link href="http://www.domain.com/item/iphone7-smartphone.html" rel="canonical"/> Insert the language code: <link href="http://www.domain.com/es/iphone7-smartphone.html" rel="canonical"/> Below is the code for zoo: // add canonical if ($this->app->system->document instanceof JDocumentHTML) { $this->app->system->document->addHeadLink(JRoute::_($this->app->route->item($this->item, false), true, -1), 'canonical'); $headData = $this->app->system->document->getHeadData(); foreach ($headData['links'] as $key => $value) { if($value['relation'] == 'canonical' && $key != JRoute::_($this->app->route->item($this->item, false), true, -1)) { unset($headData['links'][$key]); } } $this->app->system->document->setHeadData($headData); } Please provide the solution to me, thank you.

By the way, it seems the pro version doesn't translate the Open Graph Tags

Hi, First you need to change the .htaccess rules to add the possibility of language detection: # gtranslate config RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/(.*)$ /$1/$3 [R=301,L] RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)$ /$1/ [R=301,L] RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/(.*)$ /gtranslate/translate.php?lang=$1&url=$2&glang=$1 [L,QSA] RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)$ /gtranslate/translate.php?lang=$1&glang=$1 [L,QSA] After that you will be able to identify the selected language by $_GET['glang'] variable. The canonical link is generated by JRoute::_($this->app->route->item($this->item, false), true, -1) function call. You need to add the language code inside of it. The easiest way is to replace it with: str_replace('domain.com/', 'domain.com/' . (empty($_GET['glang']) ? '' : $_GET['glang'] . '/'), JRoute::_($this->app->route->item($this->item, false), true, -1)) BTW. The canonical translation is integrated into our Enterprise version which allows also URL translation. Open graph tags are not translated. Let me know. Thanks!
