Finding URL Source: /collections/vendors?q=VENDOR

Technical Q&A
1

I crawled my website and I’m trying to find where this style of URL is being linked from, so I can best deal with them.

I found many /collections/vendors?q=VENDOR URLs in the crawl.

These pages are currently indexable by Google, but I can’t tell where on the site they’re being linked to.

They are different than /collections/VENDOR. I would prefer that any internal links go to this version (collections/VENDOR) of the vendor page, and any instances of the above (?q=VENDOR) be canonicalized or redirected to the latter.

Any ideas?

Hi @msverde ,

It will link to a list of products with the same vendor: VENDOR. Refer https://shopify.github.io/liquid-code-examples/example/vendor-link-list

This link is usually created on a collection or product detail page.

Hope it helps!
