    Hello.
    I have problem with hreflang.

    My site is in Turkish and I have added Azeri language support with TranslatePress plugin. I ended up with the following:

    <link rel="alternate" hreflang="tr-TR" href="https://mysite.com/"/>
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="tr" href="https://mysite.com/"/>
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="az" href="https://mysite.com/az/"/>
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="x-default" href="https://mysite.com/"/>

    The problem is that the page
    https://mysite.com/
    is have language code
    <html lang="tr-TR">

    So if i understand correctly, we have extra link
    <link rel="alternate" hreflang="tr" href="https://mysite.com/"/>
    which shouldn’t be.

    This is repeated on all pages of the site.

    Also, Netpeak Spider shows me the error. So all pages of sites indicates as language code is not consistent with the language code of incoming hreflang links.

    Is there any way to disable this alternate link?

    Also, in fact, another problem arises – duplicate alternative URLs. Multiple links to the same URL with different hreflang values. Netpeak Spider draws attention to this as well.

    Hi,

    Since a few months ago, TranslatePress adds extra region independent hreflang tags, along with region dependent. They point to the same page.
    The region independent language tags help search engines provide the correct link to visitors without country specification or with a different country specification than those available.

    Could it be possible to add a tag management functionality?
    I think it will be useful to be able to make the necessary edits yourself.

    Hi,

    Could you describe this ” tag management functionality”? What exactly you should want to edit?
