duplicate urls exponantially growing! help!

[kiri]

Hi, we have a massive issue of duplicate urls on our shop. Hubby is working on it, but I want to figure out what the H is going on.

We are an old veriosn of prest 1.3.7. The last update was painful we postponed the next one to this summer.

 

But we have a major issue with urls that needs to be fixed urgently.

 

1/ We have the usl redirection issue which i understand might be common on our version of prest. Sounds like hubby found

 

when we redirect old products to the cat page.

 

2/ We also have issues with presta creating new urls because of each filter fonction on the pages. such as

 

 

3/ Now, we have a winnder her with a newly discovered issue which is growing exponantially. We are findin thousands of this kind of urls indexed in google:

 

 

With that, goes its friend, the same type of url but with some varied gibberish at the end as you can see below:

 

376-chaussures-grandes-tailles-tous-les-produits?%25253Bamp%25253Bp=sutruhtqtmzpmkeh

 

In one week we went from 6900 pagess indexed on google (WAY TOO MUCH),to 17,800 with this last issue.

 

Have you seen this before? do you know what h* is going on? We are trying to limit google indexing anymore of that, but it really sounds like something going on. I would really like to know and appreciate your advice,.

 

 

FInally, if anyone knows what is going on, and oncewe figure out how to fix it, how can i desindex massively from google?

 

THANKS!
