          @Mindlesswizard,  Thank's for your input. However, we do not think that the links in the footer area (as shown in your printscreen image) might cause this issue, since we put the footer to every page in our site. Therefore, it should also affecting all the generated pages we have here (CMIIW) / not limited to the issue of duplicating content in User Profile page only as we asked.

          Or maybe you have better explanation for this ?

            At the moment there is not much of content in the pages listed above and i said "i think" that could be the one reason. That's all i can say for now. May be someone who can have a better understanding can answer this. I am too looking forward for the answer 🙂

              The reason those pages are duplicates is because the pages have little to no unique content displayed.

              1 sentence does not make a page unique. Mindlesswizard points out the footer because on each one of those pages the most content is actually in them.

              "Duplicate content generally refers to substantive blocks of content within or across domains that either completely match other content or are appreciably similar." REF Google

              You need more content, more dynamic elements, more anything of uniqueness and the problem will go away.

              Hope that helps.

              Don

                What Don said is correct. Once the page has more content, it should stop flagging as duplicate content.  I always shoot for around 350-500 unique words per page.
