Pages come under collection/product shows No self-referencing hreflang but the same page views under product page have no issue

Ex:

aaaaaa.fr/ collections/bbbbbb/products/ccccccc - No self-referencing hreflang

aaaaaa.fr/  products/ccccccc - Have No Issue (Same product)

How to resolve?

Hello @Suryadprakash ,

We are Transcy - a powerful translator and currencies converter.

 

To resolve the issue, you can add self-referencing hreflang tags to your collection pages. This will indicate to search engines that the page is also available in the same language and region as the current page, and help prevent potential duplicate content issues. Here's how:

<link rel="alternate" hreflang="fr-FR" href="https://aaaaaa.fr/collections/bbbbbb/products/ccccccc" />
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="fr-FR" href="https://aaaaaa.fr/collections/bbbbbb" />

 

Hope these can help. Don't be hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions. Please hit the Like Button or mark this as Accepted Solution for us, it encourage us a lot.

Hello again,

 

If you can't access the "hreflang" coding section, you may edit the code in your theme's code. Try to follow these steps:

  • Go to Online store -> Themes -> Action -> Edit code 
  • Navigate to the template file for the page you want to edit
  • Locate the <head> section of the template file, and add the hreflang tags within it
<head>
  <!-- Other head elements -->
  <link rel="alternate" hreflang="x-default" href="https://example.com/" />
  <link rel="alternate" hreflang="fr" href="https://example.com/fr/" />
  <link rel="alternate" hreflang="en" href="https://example.com/en/" />
</head>
  • Save and test

 

Or, you can try to access the "HTML" tab in the "Shopify Translate and Adapt" app and paste the code here.

 

Hope this will work. Don't be hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions. 

 

Have a nice day.

Transcy team.

Hi Transcy team,

 

I understand your solution when it comes to a particular page but I have this problem too and it is happening for all my products in all my collections.

 

Is there a way how to generally solve this problem? 

 

Thank you!
