I have an e-commerce developed with the CMS Prestashop.

Yesterday i have seen in my Webmaster Tools that i had some duplicated URL, like this:

www.mysite.com/manufacturers
www.mysite.com/it/manufacturers.

Where ‘it’ is the suffix of the default and only language for the website.

I’ve already activate the friendly URL in the back-office and also I’ve a .htaccess file generated automatically by the generator in the back-office.

What should I do to fix this issue?

PS: Also I think that I’ve already taken a penalization from googlebot.

    Somewhere either in the htaccess file in your document root, or in the vhost/server config for mysite.com, you’ll need to 301 redirect. Now you just need to choose which one you want to keep, the one with /it/ in front or the one without? Let’s say you want to point everything to the one without, you’ll use one of these:

    Using mod_alias:

    Redirect 301 /it/manufacturers /manufacturers

    Using mod_rewrite:

    RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?mysite.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?it/manufacturers(.*)$ /manufacturers$1 [L,R=301]
