Magento 1.8 – How to Remove Port Number from URL

magento-1.8url

Is it possible to remove the port number from the url? I.e., I access the website by mywebsite.com but when I click something else in the page, it adds :8080 right between the domain name and the current page, so it will be smth like mywebsite.com:8080/flags. and I want to just hide this port number part from the URL.

After some research I could only find tutorials and help about removing or changing ports or redirections, etc.

Maybe it is possible somewhere from the admin panel?

UPDATE:

I found out that I have to set port_in_redirect to off, in some server block, which is…? (info here)

Go to System->Configuration->Web->Unsecure and check the values for Base URL and Base Link URL. remove any trace of :8080 that you find in there.

Do the same for the Secure section.

You can prevent these paths from being generated in the first place - there's a setting in the admin:

System > Configuration > Catalog > Catalog > Use Categories Path for Product URLs:

Set this to No. A reindex of core_url_rewrite table should remove any unwanted urls.

Warning: This will remove all of the category names from all URLs, leaving only the base URL key. There's no way that I'm aware of to perform the opposite - provide only the deepest-depth URL as the canonical URL.

enter image description here

Magento creates these 'pages' by default in the site root and in all relevant categories to provide logical directory structure of product pages within any category as well as standalone pages in the site root.

My suggestion: leave them enabled.

Having descriptive URLs to If you're concerned about duplicate content, you shouldn't be. You should instead enable the setting to display canonical meta tags - this will notify search engines which of the multiple pages you consider to be the de-facto standard page, which all other duplicate product pages are based on.

Below the option as displayed above in the admin is the option to enable canonicals.
