    I am experiencing the same issue. What caused this and how do we solve this?

    Have all the pages somtething in the URL in commen? If so; just tell Google not to crawl anything in that base url (with robots.txt)
    Can that be done?

    All the urls have /{{ disqus_url }} in brackets, and are all 404 errors, over 100.

    If you want to be penalised by Google,which i have been, for restricting too much via robots.txt... then I guess you can try that one.

    My website dropped off google like a stone when I tried to fix things by restricting that many urls.
    Pretty clear robots is only for a few fixes, not ones as large as this.

    Thanks for the bug report. There was a typo in the latest version of the plugin. I've pushed version 2.02.2969 which should be available here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/disqus-comm... in the next few minutes.

    Thanks I'll try and see what the next web crawl produces.

    I'm afraid I still have at least 60 with the same format, despite the upgrade.
    My home page isn't even included in the google index anymore, it's been dropped.

    Since I have just 2 pages listed as duplicate content, and 94 already blocked by robots.txt,which is already too many, I can't add another 60 pages. It's pretty clear I'm being penalised for having too many, so an extra 60 isn't a minor thing. I can fix the 94 but have no way to get rid of the others.
