Hello,

on my website using EasyBlog, I've some duplicate content, for instance:

This original article: http://kiwik.net/joomla/optimisation-performance/200-sécuriser-optimiser-vos-sites-web-avec-aesecure
is also available with this URL: http://kiwik.net/en/joomla/3/the-book-for-everyone/201-secure-and-optimize-your-websites-with-aesecure

This website use the native multilingual functionality.

Thanks for your help.
Hello Simon,

It's actually perfectly fine because if you view the source of the other URL, there's always a canonical link as shown in the screen shot here, http://screencast.com/t/CdKK8mRE . Do you know where the second link is being generated from?

Hello Mark, thanks for your answer.

Do you know where the second link is being generated from?
I've found it on Google, and it's also generated by the Xmap extension.

Hello Simon,

Hm, perhaps xmap is actually causing Google to index those pages. Do you know where the menu item /joomla/3/ is coming from?

Thanks for your answer.

I think there is a problem with the english part. Today i've created two new blog posts (called Template Creator):
In French : http://kiwik.net/blog
In English: http://kiwik.net/en/blog

If you click on the thirst blog post you'll notice the problem with the English URL. Wy it's not the same than in French?

Thanks again for your good quality support!

Hello Simon,

Hm, yeah that is odd the first url in the English blog seems to contain the word "3". Is there another submenu that you have created which may carry this alias?

The URL in french is: /blog/205-créer-des-templates-joomla-avec-le-composant-template-creator
But in english it's: /en/joomla/3/the-book-for-everyone/206-how-to-create-your-own-joomla-templates-using-template-creator

I don't understand why this part is add to the URL: /en/joomla/3/the-book-for-everyone


FYI: I've created a redirect permanent by htaccess to have the actual URL.

Hm, to be honest I really have no idea where the /3/ is coming from. Did you manually rewrite all the links through .htaccess?
