I have these settings, what happens with the blog posts that they dont have any topic created ?  Are the blog posts the canonical ones ?

Hi @mariosgr,

Please note the canonical URLs only related to forum topics and the already crossposted posts(in the forum), but not the blog post.

So a blog post is not changing if there is not related forum post, correct?

@mariosgr,

No necessary to have the canonical URL in the blog, because in the blog there is no duplicated content and the problems with the SEO.

o a blog post is not changing if there is not related forum post, correct?

In any case, the blog post does not have the canonical URL.

Sorry to ask again i am confused,

lets say i have 100 blogposts and from them i have created 30 forum topics.

If the settings are the forum posts to be the canonical links

what happens, and what happens if it is set to be blog posts.

Sorry, again I feel dummy.
