    Can someone explain this to me:

    I was wondering why my canonical URL points to my cloudfront URL. I thought it was Yoast’s SEO plugin so I disabled it. Nothing has changed so I dug deep into the code and got to the function that returns the home URL and hardcoded my site URL there.

    However, upon checking the code, I was surprised to see that even my hardcoded string got changed as well!

    What is this sorcery?!?

    How can I undo this? I want the canonical URL to point to my correct site URL because it is affecting my SEO.
    Thanks.

    I was wondering why my canonical URL points to my cloudfront URL.

    What are you using to get your site on Cloudfront?

    Please remove. I found the problem. It’s my own fault. I forgot I’ve been buffering wp_head() and replacing all instances of my domain name with the cloudfront url ??
