Canonical link have slash at the end...

Hi!
For example we have site with main page

www.somesite.com

FC in code displays canonical link for this url with slash at the end

<link href=" www.somesite.com/ " rel="canonical" />

and base URL too

<base href=" www.somesite.com/ " />

How to fix it?

Hello

this is not a problem for Google or other search engines
do you have an official page from Google guidelines saying something different ?

Read here

webmasters.googleblog.com/2010/04/to-slash-or-not-to-slash.html

So Google can treat them differently on if you have 2 pages:

-- one with
-- and one with
if both pages
www.somesite.com/
www.somesite.com/

are using / their rel-canonical
then it is not a problem

I know that search engines thinks that url without slash is page

www.somesite.com/page

and with slash, as directory

www.somesite.com/directory/

So, I think, if server configured to displays main page without slash, so rel="canonical" and base href should NOT have slash and vice versa.

Yes, may be I'm paranoid, but when you building site second year - you need to check everything.

I also VERY waiting for tag merging with Joomla system, endless pagination and reviews system with ratings.
And I want to buy FC Pro. I want to be first.
Thanks.

Hello

actually i agree with everything you said

just the slash indicates a directory but when the URL is queried you get an HTML document, so search page will not think at the end it is a directory

indeed it is best to remove
and should be trivial (very easy) too, doing it

Hello.
It still not fixed.
So, remind.
Issue only on main page.
