Hi!
I keep getting an issue with duplicate tags showing both www and non-www. What can I do to make sure that is done properly on the server side? I am also using Sucuri for site caching and SSL.

I am trying to run it, but it won't make a directory with sudo - I am using an instance on AWS.

Hi @orph,

It should work with sudo. What is the exact error?

@michiel here it is:
3e645ca4-1882-4e44-15b0-77313031f84c

Also, the issue I am having is I run a SUCURI firewall with an SSL generated by them. It appears that the search engines are seeing both a www and a non-www and labeling it as duplicate tags. So I am concerned about my setup and I want to make sure I have done everything correctly here.

Hi @orph,

Could you contact Sucuri with this issue? It does not seem related to the Bitnami configuration of your website.

@michiel thanks! Will do.

@michiel One more question on this, it looks like the duplicate tags were a result of the canonical links being blocked by Sucuri. I whitelisted the ip address, but now I am getting mixed content. I noticed in Wordpress admin/settings it says http:// instead of https:// How do I change this?

@michiel Never mind, I found it in the wp-config.php THX!
