Please read the documentation that is in the _docs folder in the distribution. Please do NOT ask any questions here without having read ALL of the documentation and FAQs first.

Thanks!

"Expanding the path" is completely wrong, rewrite conditions match the URI, the underlying filesystem is completely irrelevant, it is never compared against.

Dump the htaccess file you have created and start again, following the instructions closely.

Make sure you put the new .htaccess file in the "gorilla" folder of your site, not inside the root directory. Make sure any .htaccess file in the root directory doesn't clash.

If you're still having trouble then I'd advise paying someone to help you troubleshoot your server!

Hope that helps!

All the best...

ok i was confused which this "stores installed in a folder other than the root of the site the folder" for example my configure.php file pints to this location folder for the store /gorilla/ which is where test.gorillagear.ca is pointing to that folder. so i naturally followed the steps in step 2 of the documents configuration. as i must of misunderstood something.

everything is working now i just followed the

right now the site is running at test.gorillagear.ca

when i go live to the regular URL how should i point all the old url to the new url so i don't loose out in google with certain

Yes, what you seem to have misunderstood is that your site *isn't* in a folder other than the root, it is in the root of test.gorillagear.ca. test.gorillagear.ca is a completely different address/site from www.gorillagear.ca

I don't understand your question. Do you mean when "test.gorillagear.ca" becomes "www.gorillagear.ca"? If so you'd need some sort of rewrite rule to rewrite test.gorillagear.ca to www.gorillagear.ca

If that is the case please start a new thread to ask for advice on that, it is nothing to do with the URI Mapping module and therefore it would be inappropriate to post the question here.

All the best...

Conor cannot answer this question here on this support forum as the rules of this forum prohibit the support or discussion of paid modules on the part of the module creator. The particular module you speak of will be a commercial module, and if you want more information on it, you will need to contact Conor via e-mail. (use the contact form on the Ceon website)

Module is installed and accessible through the admin section. Added a URI manually to one of the EZ-Pages (about us page, id 1) and it broke the link. I can't even access it using the Zen-Cart dynamic URL when the URI is in place. I have to remove the URI before it shows up again. It gives me a 404 error so it's not a bad request or anything.

Ideas? I feel that I am missing something...

Information:

Zen Cart 1.3.8a
Database Patch Level: 1.3.8
PHP Version 5.2.9-2
Ceon URI Mapping Version: 3.2.4


Any help is much appreciated!

thanks for your kindness... i like your mod very much!

I have the same question, Do I need to manually update every product after uploaded by EP?

Thanks!

Edit: oh, I see. need paid mod for this.

If you have installed a htaccess file but have got the rewrite rule wrong in it you will get a 404 rather than a bad request error. Check over your rewrite rule, the problem is somewhere in it.

Also, update to 3.6.3, you are using an old version.

All the best..

I am using Zen Cart 1.3.9d
The only addons I have installed are Google Analytics and a Shopping Cart with Checkout button mod.

I have uploaded all of the CEON Uri files, with the exception of:

admin\includes\functions\extra functions\ceon_uri_mapping.php
(causes white screen in admin)

admin\categories.php
(causes blank page when accessing edit mode in a category)

What would cause this one file to break admin?

Thanks,

Josh
