Re: Simple SEO URL [support thread]
One last word. I would like to say, that I don't feel Ultimate SEO URLs or Simple SEO URL to be a competitive product to MSU.
Unlike MSU both are using internal Zen Cart API - it has positives and also some negatives. MSU is not using internal Zen Cart API and it also has positives and negatives (yes, MSU is not perfect too).
Also, it is good to see there is active development for completely free and open source add-on. MSU is closed because contains proprietary techniques which were developed separately and are used in number of different products (some you can see on our web site and some are also made as compete customizations to web site engines).
Re: Simple SEO URL [support thread]
A new version is available on SVN with 2 requested features:
1. Allow store owner to remove words less than length N (remove short words) from category/product names when displayed in links
2. Allow store owner to set the length limit of product/category names displayed in links. SSU will trim the name without breaking any word in half.
Please note: Since SSU allows you to have the name of more than 1 category in the links (in case you are in sub category folder etc...) I need to mention that the max length, when applied for the category names is per category name only.
New version is available here:
https://svn.rubikintegration.com/zen...e%20SEO%20URL/
You can download from svn using tortoisesvn, or your file download manager.
The zipped file is available here: https://svn.rubikintegration.com/zen...ipped_modules/
However, it is not up-to-date (I only put stable, tested version there)
Regards

That's not the point, take your "discussion" outside..
Twice I have nearly missed a response to this thread for what it is meant for, supporting SSU, not 'debating' issues with each other on a different topic.

Since I'm just starting with SSU, I might grab the latest version and run with that instead.
Re: Simple SEO URL [support thread]
Demo of the 2 new features:
Code:
http://demo.rubikintegration.com/zencart/mixed-product-types-c-64/sample-product-general-type-p-168
(note: the "of" in the product name "Sample of Product General Type" is removed from the link because in my case I set to remove any word less than 2 in length)
Also note that this version is only available on svn, it's not listed in the zipped module yet.
Re: Simple SEO URL [support thread]
Hi yellow,
I have version 224 running ok.. (thanks for the guidance..)
Please excuse my ignorance, but is there a reason that the products category details need to be listed in the URL ?
Eg:
This link
cd-media-c-5/cd-r-archival-gold-16-pack-with-3-ring-binder-and-sleeves-p-843
Would it not look better as.. (Note the / between the category and product description and the extra / at the end of the description and the product number.
cd-media/cd-r-archival-gold-16-pack-with-3-ring-binder-and-sleeves-/p-843
Thanks,
Mike
Re: Simple SEO URL [support thread]
Hi Mike,
Yellow and I have been discussing these things extensively. Start reading at post ~140 and this will bring you up to speed. He did a lot of clean up already since then. :clap:
Re: Simple SEO URL [support thread]
@Mike:
If you think of it like this: think of category as a parent folder, then the product as a file or a child folder, now does it make more sense to use the current link style?
Plus this link style is used by most website out there (Zencart or not), so I believe people will be more familiar with it.
Re: Simple SEO URL [support thread]
I just installed this mod, thank you for those who have worked so hard on it!
I seem to be having some problems.....in the admin section I am getting this if I try to click on the manager:
Warning: main(includes/classes/module_installer.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/i/l/o/ilovephotogift/html/admin/ssu.php on line 10
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'includes/classes/module_installer.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/content/i/l/o/ilovephotogift/html/admin/ssu.php on line 10
And if a customer tries to click on a product they get this:
No input file specified.
I have checked 2x to make sure all the files are uploaded correctly and I have changed my .htaccess as noted...
Can anyone help me while I continue my search for answers?!?

Did you read the installation.txt file? I believe it says that you need an additional module which is called the module - manager to run SSU well.
Let me know if you need any further help.
