Here is the situation:
The site has tons of business and personal profiles, the information needed to be categorized as such directories were created in an attempt to keep the URL structure clean - so for example:
www.abc.com/product/um/name-here/city-name/state/lastname:3458765
Each profile has a unique ID#, and for some reason there needed to be a category for a user in this case /um/ stands for user name.
Webmaster tool steps to resolve state to use an rel=canonical which can be done for that directory /um/ but I am concerned about the bot not being able to find the other pages beyond that directory, like the profile name, city, state associated. So I guess my ultimate question is if I use rel=canonical will the rest of the content not get crawled or indexed as well?
