Sure. Chameleon can add HTML code into the HEAD of the page using the Succeed/Fail actions. All you need to do is to be able to identify the front page of your site. There are several ways you could do this:

1 - by menu item for the front page of your site. The only problem with this is that sometimes there are other pages linked to the same Itemid, e.g. article pages linked to a "featured articles" page. But if your front page is an article then this should work fine.

2 - by URL. Detect URL "equals http://www.site.com/"

There are some other ways too but probably one of these will work best for you.

In the Succeed action, set "HTML head include type 1" to "Raw HTML for header", then add the following in the "HTML head include 1" box:

<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.site.com/"/>

Hope that helps,

Hi itaym,

there are 2 reasons why it may not be working:

1 - if you are using the system cache plugin, then clear all your page caches before trying again

2 - if it's not that, then turn on Chameleon's Debug mode. It's in the Options panel from the rule chain page or Config page. Then view the front page on your site and see what the debug output says. It reports on which conditions are being tested in each Chameleon rule, and what the result is. You may find that the condition is not quite set up right and that it's not detecting the front page properly. e.g. if you are detecting the URL for the front page you need to set the dropdown for URL to "=" and enter the correct URL including http, e.g. http://www.example.com/

That should help to isolate the issue.

Hi,

it looks like the Succeed action for Rule id 4 probably is set to "Stop processing", so it's not getting to the next rule at all.

Try setting "next action" to "Process next rule in chain" in rule id 4 and that should work :-)

Best regards,
Stephen

Any suggestion?
