This very website, A Dev Solved It, is an ASP.NET Razor Pages application.
For a given Post page, different URLs work, as long as the first part, with the post id, is the same.
For SEO purposes, I wanted though to set a canonical URL for each post.
I looked around a bit, but I didn't find a simple answer of how to generate a link rel canonical for Razor Pages, most existing results are for ASP.NET MVC.
In my Post.cshtml, I added:
@{
var scheme = HttpContext.Request.Scheme;
var host = HttpContext.Request.Host.Value;
var canonicalUrl = $"{scheme}://{host}/{Model.Post.Id}/{Model.Post.Slug}";
}
@section Head {
<link rel="canonical" href="@canonicalUrl" />
}
, while having a Head section in my _Layout.cshtml:
<head>
@await RenderSectionAsync("Head", required: false)
</head>
