Seo Urls Version 3.0.0 Beta 1 Released

I'm proud to announce the immediate release of Seo Urls Version 3.0.0 Beta 1. This is a public beta release, and all are welcome to download and test it out.

Please, please, don't use a beta release on a production site unless you have first tested it.

Hopefully we should have a production release in about a week or two, depending on how many people help test it, and how many bugs are reported.

In the download you will find a guide.pdf file that contains information on installation, reporting bugs, etc...

The download is too large to attach to this post, and I do not wish to litter the Zen Cart contribution system with beta versions of contributions, so please download Version 3.0.0 Beta 1 from the following URL:

http://www.smarterwebdev.com/pub/zen....0.0-beta1.zip

Once it reaches production status, I will post the download in the main contributions download area.

Thanks.

I have a bug report ready to go, but before posting it, I want to make sure what I experienced is in fact a bug -- as opposed to my own ignorance of how CHEMO'S works.

My problem started when I changed the Master Category ID of one of my products, then discovered the catalog was still behaving as if the product belonged to its previous master category.

To make the long story short, I learned that turning off SEO URLs fixed the mistaken-master-category problem.

The new problem, of course, is that I'd like very much to turn CHEMO'S back on. Is this a bug, or do I simply need to adjust my settings, reset my SEO URLs cache, etc.?

Thanks in advance,
Sean

It dawned on me just now to attempt a reproduction of the master categories ID problem on a different site which also runs SEO URLs 2.103 with ZC 1.3.7, this one being in a less productive environment. I reproduced the mistaken master categories ID behavior easily, and switching CHEMO'S off remedied the problem there also.

Going one step further, I tried turning CHEMO'S back on and resetting the SEO URLs cache. The problem persisted.

I then tried disabling Categories cache in CHEMO'S preferences (wild guessing at this point). The problem persisted.

So I figure if this isn't a bug, then I'm just too ########-stupid to use SEO URLs. Bug report here follows.

Try enabling it and resetting SEO cache and see what happens.. it might fix the problem

Bug reports for 2.1x are no longer being accepted. I you have a problem, try the version 3 beta, and if the problem still exists, then report the version 3 bug through the proper channels according to the directions in the guide.

Have a nice day.

Thanks -- I'll test the beta in the less productive environment and wait for the production release on the other.

Have you tested it with Google Checkout?

Thanks!

This does not affect Google Checkout. Please keep in mind that it is the responsibility of each user to test this mod with other mods and report back if they have problem. It's unrealistic to expect the mod created to install ALL mods to test against their mod so that they can report back if it works or not.

Best thing to do is for you to install, test it and if it doesn't work report here or better yet, report here to let others know it works as well.

Thanks!

Anybody getting problems installing the beta? I am having a difficult time getting it to work. Seems its the .htaccess that is giving me problems.
