Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

zencart default charset is set to iso_8859-1, after i changing it to utf-8, my problem has been fixed. now those specials characters (é, è, à ) are replaced by (e, e a) in url :clap:

i found the ru.php in ssu language folder, where could i get the german special characters translit?

You will need to clone ru and make one for german yourself.
In the future SSU will have features added to make transliting much easier.

I apologise in advance if this has been answered elsewhere but I promise I went through this thread and the sites referred to in the installation documentation.

My first question is can this be used on a windows server ?

I found a few references to windows server tweaks in this thread but no difinitive answer.

Secondly if it can be used on a windows server what has to be installed / turned on on the server ?

The documentation gives instructions for apache but does not specifiically mention the windows server.

Again my apologies if this is answered elsewhere and I missed it.

No need to apologize, the thread is long.

Anyhow, I dont have the answer either. Some users reported the htaccess rules do not work well on their windows server, and I offered to help if I can get access to their windows test server, but no one ever got back to me so far :)

Hi Yellow, I'm hoping you can help me... I just ported over my site from Osc to Zen, all my redirects are fine except I'm having a problem getting my products to redirect. Here's an example...

Here is the old URL:
http://www.perfectlocks.com/product_...roducts_id=108

Here is the new one:
http://www.perfectlocks.com/hand-tie...hand-tied-weft

My code in .htaccess is:
redirect 301 /product_info.php?products_id=108 http://www.perfectlocks.com/hand-tie...hand-tied-weft

But when the page it actually ends up landing on is:
http://www.perfectlocks.com/-c-0/products-name-p-108

Why is it changing the URL and what is -c-0? Please help, how do I fix this? All of my non product pages redirect just fine. Does this require some kind of mod rewrite in my .htaccess?

Post the links again, in [ code ]

Here is the old URL:

Code:

---

www.perfectlocks.com/product_info.php?products_id=108

---

Here is the new one:

Code:

---

http://www.perfectlocks.com/hand-tied-wefts/curly-hand-tied-weft

---

My code in .htaccess is:

Code:

---

redirect 301 /product_info.php?products_id=108 http://www.perfectlocks.com/hand-tied-wefts/curly-hand-tied-weft

---

But when the page it actually ends up landing on is:

Code:

---

http://www.perfectlocks.com/-c-0/products-name-p-108

---

Do you really have the product id 108 in the new store, that is also want of the problem

No I don't, my product Id's have changed... but I have it redirecting to the alias, is that not sufficient?

Where do you place these redirection? They have to be BEFORE

Code:

---

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php?/$1 [E=VAR1:$1,QSA,L]
