Im Also struggling with this. What theme do you have ? Ive got supply. Ive looked through old advice but i cant seem to find the code they are talking about. I Have 1900 link warnings.
Parm, i am using a free theme called Debut. i was able to find the code on line 2 of the product-card-grid.liquid file.
looks like this: {{ product.url | within: collection }}
was told to edit to look like this: {{ product.url }}
it is likely that shopify is using the site/product/item url as the canonical and this cannot be edited.
if your products pages are all showing the site/collection/product/item in the url box, removing the ‘within: collection’ in the code should correct the internal linking issue for those urls.
i am waiting for my site to be crawled again to know if it worked but i am pretty confident. hope this helps.

I have have also fixed the issue with ‘within: collection’ however I am getting issues with tags were shopify are building the URL https://www.amaroc.co.uk/collections/vendors?q=wemico.
I think I can fix it by updating Robot.txt to not crawl these. Anyway I found brilliant sources of information, see below.
Was this ultimately the solution as I’ve seen no uptick in voting or a solution badge applied here.
that did fix it, very sorry for not verifying . im obviously new to this. thanks

After I changed this to {product.url} I am now getting thousands of crawl issues from google:
Canonical URL has no incoming internal links
Is anyone else having this issue?
