Hello experts, I have a problem with my forum RC5 and Wap2. The problem is that spiders are indexing the wap2 and the normal page, and spider could punish to me because I am putting the same content with 2 urls different.
I have 7500 urls with wap2 in google, i am using robots.txt
QuoteDisallow: /index.php?topic=*;wap2
Disallow: /index.php?board=*;wap2
Disallow: /index.php?action=*
Allow: /index.php?board=*
Allow: /index.php?topic=*
Allow: /index.php/topic,*.*.html
But i continue indexing urls with wap2, i think that the better could be is redirect the urls with wap2 to normal page, what recommend you? i want delete this url with wap2, what could i do?

Edit Wireless.template.php

Look <head> tags, there are 3 times them, for wap, imode and wap2.

Put this after <head> tag
Code Select
<meta name="robots" content="noindex, follow">

Remember, its there 3 times, so do this to all of them.

After this, google dont index your wap pages.

Despite common beliefs and various science-fiction stories which appeared in the last couple of years  Google is not going to penalize any duplicate content unless its intentionally used to deceive the indexing engine.

Anyone claiming that Google will penalize you for having duplicate content on your website is mistaking. The only real damage you could make for having pages with identical content is watering down their index strength because a unique page would usually take all the "credits" for its unique content.

In order no to repeat myself you could take a look at the official Google guidelines about this topic.

There you will find a couple of possible solutions and most important clarifications about duplicate content.
