Even Better SEO for Events, Locations

[Anonymous]

There are a couple of posts under “How to make EME and Yoast play nice together?” at https://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/faq/ discussing how to make Yoast behave better with the Events page and dynamic events and locations.

I followed the instructions on the FAQs to add dynamic titles, get OG tags, etc but found one more issue: Google wouldn’t crawl the site because Yoast added a page canonical that overrode the dynamic canonical.

So in addition to the suggested code for the functions.php file, I also added the following (found on stack):

add_filter( 'wpseo_canonical', 'yoast_remove_canonical_items' );

function yoast_remove_canonical_items( $canonical ) {
  if ( is_page ( 3475 ) ) {
    return false;
  }
  /* Use a second if statement here when needed */
	return $canonical; /* Do not remove this line */
}

Any comments to better this are welcomed…
