Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

[DivaVocals]

My SSU module now keeps becoming non-functional after a day or so, argh! My URL's are all showing like:

.nintendoparts.com.au/ds-lite-screens/ds-lite-bottom-lcd-screen?zenid=2h7oibn6p685grbah3ta7m55l0

I reset my browser cache, and it still shows the non-SSU URL's. I double checked that the SSU status is set to true in the admin configuration.

If I re-update the SSU status to true in the admin configuration my URL's switch back to:


.nintendoparts.com.au/ds-lite-screens/ds-lite-bottom-lcd-screen

Now that I'm getting nice SSU URL's I'd really like the module to stay turned on! Any ideas?

If you are referring to the "zenid" data at the end of your URL, this is NOT cause by SSU at all.. This is part of Zen Cart behavior (sessions setting which is admin configurable). Suggest you search for "zenid" in the forum to understand what the "zenid" is.. Here's a few links that might help (there are plenty more on the forum):

The session ID does not affect SEO if that is your concern..

I have checked again and can confirm there is no yclass in the new version of SSU which is available NOT on this zencar website but on eazyecommerce.com

Right. It's not included in the new version, yet there are other mods (Cross Sell Advanced for one)that still call to this yclass thing. I have had this problem over and over again and the new module manager nor new SSU solve the problem.

The file in question for me was located in includes/classes/yclass.php. If that file is missing, things won't work.

Also, it is VERY confusing/annoying for us users to not get the newest version of mods on the ZenCart site. It should be a requirement IMHO. :]

I have changed my settings to:

ID delimiter -
Name delimiter -
File extension html
Set max category level 0
Set Link Alias Status true
Set minimum word length 0
Set maximum name length 0
Set SSU Status true
Set Auto Alias Status true
Set Category Separator /

I reset the cache and it made no difference. I manually deleted all the files in the SSU cache and then reset the cache in in the admin. After that it made my URL's change from:

.nintendoparts.com.au/-c-2_5/ds-lite-bottom-lcd-screen-p-2

to

.nintendoparts.com.au/-c-2_5/ds-lite-bottom-lcd-screen

Which is a mild improvement. I'd still like to remove the categories all together. I know .html extension is not necessary, but at this stage I want it almost on principle only. I'm a bit of a perfectionist and I just want to work out why this mod isn't working 100%

I've also noticed that often after making changes such as after upgrading, and sometimes for no reason at all SSU turns itself off. Even though Set SSU Status = true in admin I have to re-update the SSU status to true to get it to work again. Strange

If I'm understanding correctly you are having issues getting SSU to ignore the delimiters? I have had this problem over and over again as well. I ended up resolving it myself by going to /cache/SSU/ and the following folders:

aliases
categories
pages
pc
products

and one by one deleting the entire contents of EACH folder. [it took houuurrrs] If you don't have those folders [I didn't for some reason and SSU kept yelling at me] just do as I did and create them. It helped made SSU behave for me.

Then I made sure my SSU settings in admin were as I wanted.
Then Admin->Extras->SSU Manager and reset all cache.

It sounds like what you already tried, but you never know!

Not really, that is how it should work.

When you visit the site for the first time the session starts and thus you see zenid in there (note that this shows for only real users, not search engine bots, also by first time I mean everytime you open your browser and go to your site)

My SSU module now keeps becoming non-functional after a day or so, argh! My URL's are all showing like:

.nintendoparts.com.au/ds-lite-screens/ds-lite-bottom-lcd-screen?zenid=2h7oibn6p685grbah3ta7m55l0

I reset my browser cache, and it still shows the non-SSU URL's. I double checked that the SSU status is set to true in the admin configuration.

.nintendoparts.com.au/ds-lite-screens/ds-lite-bottom-lcd-screen

You open notepad+++ and insert the information and save it as php.ini file or if you are running php5 on your server save it as php5.ini and upload that to your server in the root of your server.

Im on a php5 server. Tried your way by opening notepad, add the info and save. It vas saved as a .txt file. did not work, changed it to .ini on the root folder. did not work.

Downloaded the .ini file from last mentioned link , opened it and changed info in winedit and saved it to .ini. php5.ini and uploaded it. No luck.

I feel to solution is so close and that it is just a tiny little error that is causing this. This is just annoying no

This error is with the current configuration of your server. In the link I posted above, there is 1 suggestion to solve it by adding .ini file, another solution is available if you follow the link on the same page.

If you tried both solution and it still doesn't work, perhaps you can contact your host to see if they could help with this specific error. You can also send them the link I posted and tell them you tried both. This issue comes from the server configuration itself so your host should has the best knowledge on how to solve it

Solution 1 has not been tested since im not sure of the path to the config.php file. Looked at the configuration.php, but the paramerters as described was not in there.
