What are you doing with URL's for Taxonomy terms, which tend to go in eternity, i.e.

/zen/taxonomy/term/4/615

which is identical with all

term/1 term/2 term/n etc....

They all show the same page?!

Anybody there? - This should be easy.....

So, yeah, people, this appears a way bigger issue with Drupal as I initially assumed...

I found a few more discussions on this topic, dated 5 and 2 years ago and without any real solution.
And the possible problem is - hundreds and thousands of duplicate content pages, strictly banned by Google and other search engines....

So here is my 2 cents:

1. My first assumption was that I could do some simple re-direct....I would take this Match Redirect Module, which supports Wildcard redirects and do a few redirects like this:

node/*/* to front
taxonomy/term/*/* to front
taxonomy/term/*/feed/* to front

-- But the Problem now is:

- It makes impossible to Edit Nodes, which are by path....

node/*/edit

---> So I need Exclusion -> but it's not supported in module....

----------------------------------

So - I am still with problem....

I don't know .htaccess regex so good to write it, I will search around and learn again....

But if there are some people who could write this for us - it would be appreciated very much...

This makes Drupal unusable, there will be thousands and thousands of duplicates of every article.

I'm shocked.

Drupal even adds Canonical link to all those duplicates automatically!

One thing we can do still is disallow in robots.txt from crawling: Disallow: /node/

this is probably a must have;

but it's still not great with users, etc... who might start to use wrong URL's...

and it still might be considered a duplicate content...
