    Hi taflo5,

    I assume the slug is generated at either the WordPress core level or AnsPress that handles it. The SEO Framework doesn’t alter the slug, it only uses it to generate a canonical URL.

    The mistaken URL in Google is caused by a mistake at Google itself.
    For these two reasons, it can’t be WordPress, AnsPress or The SEO Framework’s fault:
    a) A 301 redirect is performed when following the shortlink. This means the URL is permanently pointing to another place, and Google should treat it accordingly.
    b) The SEO Framework outputs a correct Canonical URL for Google to index after the redirect. Google must/should check this URL and follow it if necessary.

    I’m afraid you’d have to sign up for Google Webmasters and get this solved through the Google Index > Remove URLs and Crawl > Fetch As Google pages.

    Or you could wait it out, it should resolve itself within a week to three months.

    I hope this clears things up and I’m sorry I can’t be of any more assistance at this point, good luck!
    If you have any more questions feel free to ask :).
