Hello, I’m sorry for the confusion you’re experiencing. When changing the canonical URL in the Advanced tab of Rank Math, you should input the actual canonical URL of your page. For example, if the canonical URL of your page is “https://www.yourwebsite.com/category/product-1/`”, you should input this URL directly into the Canonical URL field. You do not need to include “canonical-url” as part of the input; just use the actual canonical URL.
If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to ask.
