Google: New Index coverage issue detected for site

Hello,

I'm afraid that HikaShop 3.8.8 does not exist, yet.
Regarding the error :

500 - Layout listing_blog not found.

There is no such view in HikaShop and regarding the nature of the URL ; it comes from a misconfiguration somewhere. But that Joomla menu is not an HikaShop one and all it can do, it generate unwanted side effects.

Please check your HikaShop settings ; specially the one regarding the force menu for the checkout.

Hi,

Which version of Joomla and HikaShop do you have ?
Do you know the URL which generates that error ?
If so, access it after activating the "debug" setting of the Joomla configuration and it should display more information about the error. Please provide a screenshot of all the information.

Hi,

Thanks.
Are you using Google Analytics ? Normally in there, you can look for these faulty URLs and it should tell you the URL of the page where it found them:
stackoverflow.com/questions/70722211/how...ogle-analytics-4-ga4

Aren't these URLs to the backend component?

These are frontend URLs. They are generated either by a third party extension which doesn't take into account the menu items, or by a search plugin or module of HikaShop not configured properly, which leads to the URL being invalid.

Please reread my previous message. I'm not saying it is necessarily a third party extension generating these URLs.

For example, you have many HikaShop modules I suppose.
And each HikaShop content module has a "menu" setting, under its "hikashop options" tab where you need to select a menu item you want to be used for the URLs being generated.
If you leave that setting empty, it's possible to end up with URLs without a menu item for the HTML generated by that module, like the ones you provided.
In order to point at the module / plugin / extension which generates these faulty URLs, we need to look at the page where these faulty URLs can be found on your website. Google tools should be able to provide that information.

Hi,

No, it's not.

I spent some time on your website looking at different places and none of the URLs listed had /component in them.

AS I said before, I would really recommend you use the tools Google provide to find the referer of these 404 URLs:
webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/1...glebots-crawling-url
With the information from there, we should be able to tell you what to do.

Hi,

Go to the Google Search Console :
search.google.com/search-console/about
There, go to the menu Crawl > Crawl Errors > Desktop | Smartphone
Select the "Not found" sub tab.
The URLs that generate 404s should be listed at the bottom of the page.
Click on any one of these URLs to get a popup of more details of the error.
Provide the information from there for a 404 URL and we'll be able to understand why that URL appears in the search results even though we can't find it on your website.

Hi,

I cannot answer this question. The only way to answer this question is to follow the instructions I gave in my previous message, and only you, as the owner of the website, can use the search console of Google to follow the instructions.

Hi,

I don't read Dutch, so I'm not sure what it is saying. However, based on what I know, it seems that the "verwijzende pagina" is the referrer URL.
If I access these pages on your website, I don't see the faulty URL present on the page.
What that means is that these are old URLs that were present there in the past but are not there anymore.
However, I think there is a way to improve things.
I can see on the page everybody-lingerie.nl/index.php?option=c...&category_pathway=56 that you have a canonical URL set: i.imgur.com/eEeBkW8.png
However, it is set with just the current URL used to access the page.
This should normally be set with the main URL you want to be used to access the product page.
I think the problem is that you've activated the system - SEF plugin via the Joomla plugins manager. But you should not do that.
This plugin adds wrong canonical tags to the pages: github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/discussions/31806
So disable it. I think that's why Google indexes wrong URLs on your website.
Then, I would recommend you set the "canonical URL" setting in your products with the main URL you want to be indexed. That way, it will clean the search results on your website when Google reindexes your URLs.
