An example of using this filter. In this I am setting the canonical url through ACF in a field called ‘canonical_url’.
```
function wpdocs_edit_canonical_urls( $original_url, $post ) {
	$override_url = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'canonical_url', true );

	if ( empty( $override_url ) ) {
		return $original_url;
	}

	return $override_url;

}

add_filter( 'get_canonical_url', 'wpdocs_edit_canonical_urls', 10, 2 );
```
