Nodewords Disable the module in themodules page.
The feature implemented in Meta Tags by Path is now included in Nodewords; there is not need to use Meta Tags by Path, and the module should be disabled to avoid possible conflicts.

Deprecated

According to their project page, it's deprecated since the functionality has been rolled into the newer version of nodewords:


"Starting from version 1.2, nodewords module has full support for canonical URLs. I strongly encourage everyone to use nodewords module instead of standalone canonical_url.
After release of nodewords 6.x-1.2, canonical_url is considered deprecated module and will be shut down after reasonable period of time."
