WordPress generates a "Canonical URL" automatically but gets the URL wrong for the ECT Cart pages. The change to the ECT Widgets Plugin stops the Canonical URL being generated for those pages and this can be important for SEO reasons and also so that when customers share pages on FaceBook and other social media sites the correct URL is used. You can get a new version (1.7) of the plugin here... https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/wordpress/wp-plugins.asp https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/free_downloads.asp#wordpress Vince Click Here for Shopping Cart Software Click Here to sign up for our newsletter Click Here for the latest updater
