I want to add a number of posts to my blog that I wrote for a previous employer. To prevent search engines from classifying my blog as spam, I want to refer to the original versions of these posts using HTML link tags with the attribute rel=canonical.
As I see it, a straightforward way to achieve this would be adding something like Canonical-url: https://www.example.org/post/1234 to the metadata of relevant posts and using the value of this field in the 'base.html` template.
