Help needed with robots.txt regarding wordpress!

[ENSO]

Here is my robots.txt from google webmaster tools. These are the pages that are being blocked and I am not sure which of these to get rid of in order to unblock blog posts from being searched.

These category pages and blog posts are blocked so do I delete the /? ...I am new to SEO and web development so I am not sure why the developer of this robots.txt file would block pages and posts in wordpress. It seems to me like that is the reason why someone has a blog so it can be searched and get more exposure for SEO purposes.

IS there a reason I should block any pages contained in wodrpress?

I'm a bit confused. You reference ensoplastics.com up the top and then show the robots text from ensobottles.com

Are they using the same robots content? The sites use different url naming so ensobottles uses rewrite whereas the other site uses ?p=

Well that is a problem isn't it? Like I said I am new to a lot of this and I didn't develop either site, this robot.txt file is pointing to the wrong site map. So I am going to change that.

However I am guessing I may need to change some of the rules to get it to where it is not blocking wordpress content.

So basically this site was duplicated and apparently the robots.txt file was duplicated. There is no sitemap for the blog created for the enso plastics site, so I am not sure how to proceed at this point. Should I just create a new robots.text file for enoplastics and replace this one? Or do I edit this one, and go create a sitemap for my blog?

I've just looked at the home pages of the two sites and they are pretty much the same apart from substituting plastics with bottles. I'm not an expert but I would have thought Google might think this is duplicate content.

In my opinion I would concentrate on one of the sites say plastics and have the bottle specific stuff as a subsection. I'm not sure how the sites rank etc so that may be easier said than done.

As for the site map / robot question, if you continue with two sites then I would recommend generating a new one for the copied site.
