probably the best Zen Cart URI Mapping/SEO Module in the world! ...ever!
Date | Version | Release Information |
---|---|---|
19th Feburary 2009 | 3.0.1 | [BUGFIX] The standard Zen Cart initsystem initialises the languages system at one of the later stages, meaning that the language ID is set too late in the initsystem process for this module to work correctly when a non-human visits the site. The languages init code is now run in the URI Mapping initsystem script to fix this (major) problem. ALL users should upgrade. |
16th Feburary 2009 | 3.0.0 |
[UPDATED] Completely new database structure implemented.
[ADDED] Idea of “Current” static URI made central concept behind handling of URIs in module. All admin URI functionality now inserts/updates mappings for the “Current” URI only. [UPDATED] Ability to “delete” URI mappings removed. Instead, any “old” URI mappings are marked as no longer being current. [ADDED] Historical URI mapping support added. “Deleted” URI mappings still point towards their original subject, by redirecting the user to the “Current” URI for the subject. URI mappings being updated don't have their old URI mappings retained; however, they can be added [back in] to the database manually if necessary. [ADDED] Support for all Zen Cart pages added to the database, the module's code and its modifications to the zen_href_link function. Any Zen Cart page can now have a static URI, which will be linked to instead of the standard Zen Cart dynamic URI! [ADDED] Automatic redirection of dynamic URIs to their current, active URI mapping added to URI Mapping. Any attempt to use a dynamic URI for a page which has a current static URI will result in the user being redirected to the current (static) URI. [ADDED] Ability to specify the HTTP Status Code to be used for the redirection to an alternative URI added. Allows controlling of exact type of redirection (temporary/permanent etc.). [ADDED] Support for pages related to the product info pages added. Reviews and Tell-A-Friend sections are now automatically made “subsections” of the product's main info page, by appending some specific URI parts to the product info page's static URI. These specific URI parts are defined in the admin languages file. [UPDATED] Dynamic query string variable is no longer appended to static URI links for subcategories or links to product info pages (for those which aren't a link to a linked product). Results in cleaner, “nicer” URIs! [BUGFIX] Missing filename definitions added for several product types. Links to products of these types now correctly use any static URI defined for the product. [UPDATED] Documentation updated with information about new functionality and the methodology behind the new way the module works. |
13th Feburary 2009 | 2.0.3 | [BUGFIX] URIs being output for links on stores with a directory prefix other than “/” were incorrectly having the directory prefix prepended to the URIs! |
21st January 2009 | 2.0.2 | [BUGFIX] Module wasn't being run on the store side on servers which have an unexpected SCRIPT_NAME value. Updated to only use value of REQUEST_URI, SCRIPT_NAME is no longer used.
[BUGFIX] String class wasn't fully compatible with PHP 4.x. |
14th January 2009 | 2.0.1 | First public release!
[UPDATED] Installation documentation updated. |
8th December 2008 | 2.0.0 | [UPDATED] Complete rewrite - released for testing.
[ADDED] Multi-language support added. Each Product/Category/EZ-Page can now have a different URI mapping for each language used by the store. [ADDED] Support for auto-generation of URI mappings added. Includes support for UTF-8 and transliteration - wow! [ADDED] Full admin configuration utility added for URI mapping auto-generation functionality. |
10th November 2008 | 1.2.0 | [BUGFIX] Sometimes the session ID handling caused the URI parsing to fail as it left a trailing ampersand on the end of links. |
25th September 2008 | 1.0.0 | [ADDED] Support for all standard product types added (previously all products were displayed using the standard product type page/template instead of their custom page/template). Supported types now include document_general, document_product, product, product_book, product_free_shipping and product_music. |
30th August 2008 | 1.0.0alpha1 | Initial Release to private client of JKED. |
