Options -Indexes

Not a theme issue; likely best to Google how to do this.

Note, if you’re using the YOAST SEO plugin, there is a one-click option to add this.

Also note that if you have proper “canonical” URL tag in your meta data, this is a non issue since the canonical tag is specifically intended to fix this issue by specifying which URL is the right one.

So, doing a redirect but not having the correct element in the canonical tag would be shooting yourself in the foot if the canonical tag had no slash but that redirected to the URl with slash.

If you’re using the YOAST plugin, you can very easily fix this.

Also, fyi, you can also simply add a / to the end of your permalink setup in the default WordPress permalinks panel (try it) 😉

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I am using All in one seo, and the canonical url box is ticked from first.

Is it the reasone google not indexing the without slash pages – which is good.

But I want to redirect it frow without slash to slash.

Is there any code you suggest which can fix this issue.

Many thanks
Debarup

Hi,
I am using this plugin http://scott.yang.id.au/pages/permalink-redirect.html

can you please let me know if it is working fine at there or not?

Note: It was not working perfectly when the W3 Total Cache plugin – Page cache option was in Disk Enhanced mode. But when I have changed it to Disk: Basic, it is working fine.

Thanks & Regards
Debarup

Hi,

We haven’t tested that plugin with the theme so we are not aware of the results using it. W3 total cache could cause various issues if not configured well so you’ll have to find the right configuration for it. Glad it works now!

Thanks for the message!
