XF 2.3 Duplicate page titles (in members profiles)

[Anatoliy]

Member profiles /members/username/ and their About pages /members/username/about have identical page titles. I have 5k members, so Google sees 5k page title duplications, which I guess is not good. Can I fix it somehow?
1. May be there is a switch in ACP that turn off About pages?
2. Template modification?
3. Something else?

Please advise.

I do not see this issue on XenForo sites, including yours currently.

I don't understand, sorry, my English became really bad without practice.
Do you mean you don't see it as an issue? Or you don't see that those pages have duplicated titles?

I don't see duplicate titles in the page code on your site for /members/ pages or the /about pages.

These 2 pages have the same page title:

bzcomputers

xenforo.com

bzcomputers

xenforo.com

as well as these 2

Anatoliy

xenforo.com

Anatoliy

xenforo.com

and the same is for each member

Probably template modification could fix this?
I guess adding conditional in a right template (if it's member's About page, then replace $page_title with "$page_title / About")?
Except ii don't know what template and how to write conditional properly. Help please.

I see what you are saying now. I misunderstood you and thought you were inferring that there was duplicate title tags on each page.

Give me a second and I'll figure out what's needed to fix it.

The simplest way is to edit the member_about template first line:

Change this:
<xf:title>{$user.username}</xf:title>

To this:
<xf:title>{$user.username} - About</xf:title>

You can also optionally create a template mod to make sure it does not get overridden the next time you update XenForo.
