Hi Ivan When you have duplicate content you are suppose to utilize whats called a rel canonical. I've included a URL here which I hope will provide of some value to you. This website tell you how to find duplicate content and then how to fix it. http://www.shoutmeloud.com/wordpress-duplicate-content-problems-fixes.html Best of Luck Lenny
I agree rel canonical should fix it, but if it's just a couple of pages I wouldn't worry too much about it. When it comes to blogs, Google understands that there will be duplicate content sometimes.
