Hello, how can I set up a canonical URL? as it is very important when using cross-posting.

Also is three a build in sitemap for forum

I tried some site map plugins but they do not see forum posts, but maybe you know the ONE that works.

Hi @mrsteeiii,

Hello, how can I set up a canonical URL? as it is very important when using cross-posting.

The addon always insert the blog post URL as the canonical URL for the cross-posted topic, for example if the blog post is this: https://addons.wpforo.com/2022/08/30/test-post/

The same URL will be set as canonical URL for the cross-posted topic, if you go to this topic and press Ctrl+U and see the source you can find the canonical URL: https://addons.wpforo.com/community/wpforo-topic-custom-fields/test-post/

You should know that wpForo has its own sitemap for the forum content. You can find the forum sitemap URL in the wpForo > Boards admin page:

Thanks for your reply, 

I see now, but how can I make forum posts canonical I see that blog posts are indexed by google but I want that they index forum posts more. 

 

Thank you for the information about the sitemap.

@mrsteeiii,

I'm sorry, but there is no way to set the topic UR as the canonical URL. I'll add this in our to-do list.
