How it works
You must install and enable the plugin, then edit an item, for example an article, and go in the Publishing tag >> Metadata. Here you will find the Custom Canonical CK option. You can click on the Auto button to automatically create the url for you. Take care that this will affect the SEO of your website and you must know what you are doing here.
Automatic canonical tags
You can activate the option to automatically add the canonical tag to your pages in your Joomla website. This will get the routed url for the current page and set it as canonical url. Note that Joomla can show your pages in a non routed url which results into a duplicate content. To avoid the duplicate content problem in Joomla you can enable the automatic canonical tags in the plugin options.
