All of my urls are being listed with a trailing slash and without a trailing slash. I see an option to remove trailing slash from folder names, however, I do not see an option to remove trailing slash from urls.  

Question - how do I remove crawler from listing URL's with trailing slash??

Your website should do those things rather than the robot.

Don't present urls with trailing slash. So fix the navigation.

Gotcha - Just to confirm, this is a site generated setting.  For example, I there may be an administrative configuration setting in my admin panel or perhaps I would have to implement a .htaccess configuration, that's what you are referring to?

Thanks

It depends on the type of CMS you are using.
Usually such things are controlled in . htaccess but they can also be handled through php scripting dictated by some admin setting. You have to check your .htaccess file first.

I am using Wordpress and Shopp plugin.  The Shopp plugin adds a trailing /.  Is that a problem for crawlers?

Regards

It shouldn't as long as it's all consistent and there are no
redirections happening when navigating (or crawling) the site.
