Website stuck in AMP instead NON AMP version
It your website is serving the AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) version instead of the standard non-AMP version even when not required. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve this issue:
- Check AMP Settings: If you are using an AMP plugin in WordPress (or another CMS), check the settings to ensure it’s configured correctly. You might have the option to disable AMP for certain types of pages or posts, or entirely.
- Verify URL Configuration: Ensure that the URLs for the AMP versions are correctly differentiated from the non-AMP versions. Sometimes, misconfiguration in URL settings might lead AMP pages to be served instead of their non-AMP counterparts.
- Inspect .htaccess or Redirect Rules: If you are using Apache, check your
.htaccess
file for any rewrite rules that might be incorrectly redirecting requests to AMP pages. For Nginx, the same checks apply to your server configuration. - Google Search Console: Use Google Search Console to inspect if Google is indexing your AMP pages preferentially. You can also use it to see if there are any issues with your non-AMP pages that could be causing Google to favor AMP.
- Clear Caches: Clear all types of caches including your website cache, CDN cache, and browser cache to ensure that an old or incorrect version isn’t being served.
- Disable AMP: If you determine that AMP is not benefiting your site, or is causing too many issues, consider disabling AMP altogether. You can typically do this within the plugin or application settings.
