Category URL Filter indexing problems

[luke]

Hey Treepl people!

I have Google yelling at me with this

This is what I have on my page called ‘The Feed’

<section class="nav-spacer">
   <div class="container">
      <div class="row">
         {% component source: "The Feed", layout: "Featured", filterBy: "Featured", filterValue: "True", ignoreWeighting: "true", sortBy: "Featured", limit: "1", enablePagination: "false", type: "module" %}
      </div>
   </div>
</section>

<section class="pt-4 pb-5 pt-md-5 pb-md-7 pt-lg-6 pb-lg-9 pt-xl-7 pb-xl-11">

   <div class="container justify-content-center">
      <div class="row">
         <div class="col">
            {% include "/includes/components/category-nav.inc" %}
         </div>
      </div>
      <div class="row">

         <div class="col-lg-12 mx-auto">
            <div class="row g-md-4">

               {% if request.request_url.params.category %}
               {% assign filterValue = request.request_url.params.category %}
               {% assign filterBy = 'ItemCategories' %}
               {% else %}
               {% assign filterValue = this.id %}
               {% assign filterBy = '' %}
               {% endif %}

               {% component source: "The Feed", layout: "List", filterBy: "{{ filterBy }}", filterValue: "{{ filterValue }}", sortBy: "ReleaseDate", type: "module" %}

            </div>
         </div>

      </div>
   </div>
</section>

This is what the page looks like.
I have a custom module with a category filter giving me the URL Google is whining about.

How do I stop Google from yelling at me?

Any help would be much appreciated

From what I understand, you need to set the page canonical address (on the SEO tab) to the URL of your main page.
This tells search engines that all other variations of this page refer back to the main page, and those variation pages shouldn’t be indexed (I think).
