 * Hi,
 * I set my site URL in the Settings of WordPress as
 * WordPress Address (URL)
    `https://www.nwcorporatelaw.com` Site Address (URL) `
   https://www.nwcorporatelaw.com`
 * Yoast SEO plugin is then generating my site URL as `https://www.nwcorporatelaw.
   com`
 * However, when I run a site audit at SEMrush, I get the error message that my 
   Sitemap includes duplicate URLs. The duplicate URL in question is `https://www.
   nwcorporatelaw.com`
 * I asked SEMrush support about this, and they said my canonical URL is actually
   set as `https://www.nwcorporatelaw.com/`
    When I go to `https://www.nwcorporatelaw.
   com` in my browser, the link appears as such (.com) but when I click on and highlight
   the URL in browser, it turns to .com/
 * Is there any way to fix this discrepancy?
 * Thanks,
 * Derek
