Does exactly what we need now. :clap:

Glad you like the software.

For version 4.0.0 I'm adding an "example rewrite rule for your store" section to the configuration utility so people can copy and paste a rewrite rule into their .htaccess file.. hopefully that will help others avoid the problem you had.

I've tried to make the documentation as easy as possible to follow but the length of this thread shows that I've failed somewhat in that regard.. hopefully I can begin to turn that around with v4.0.0... although it's taking weeks now and still not finished... hopefully soon :|

All the best...

No the documentation is the best I have seen on how to install a add on. People just don't read, or half read the documentation. They want it, and want it fast, and they half read how to install it.
You have done a great job Conor keep up the good work.:yes:

That's very nice of you to say, thanks very much!

I do feel that it could be better.. ideally if I had the time I'd create completely different versions of the documentation for different server setups, so there could be more of a "hold your hand and walk you through things" option for those that struggle to read the documentation as it is.

v4.0.0 is easier to install and from that point always it'll be simple to upgrade so I'm getting somewhere.

Back to programming then... :)

All the best...

Not sure what I have missed, but when I click within admin
'modules'...Ceon URI Mapping (SEO) config' I get page not found:blush:

Its wanting to go to 'FILENAME_CEON_URI_MAPPING_CONFIG.php'

Whats missing? Should I have changed some text somewhere to point to the right file??

Thanks

I have checked all files are there and in the right place, three times now...this file is there

admin/includes/extra_datafiles/ceon_uri_mapping_filenames.php

so it can't be that..do i need to do something with the htaccess file??

I've been using Filezilla for FTP and I've never had a problem with this before..

any ideas?? :dontgetit

Thanks

ps the instructions are geat for this module..(have to agree with the person above)...very suprised I missed something..I have plodded slowly through this and so I'm suprised it's not working for me..

Is your store's admin called "admin"?

And is the file definitely in the YOUR-ADMIN/includes/extra_datafiles/ folder?

If so, re-upload it.. the ONLY way to get the error message you are having is if the above file is missing.

FTP software often does mess up when uploading so it wouldn't surprise me if that's what has happened.

Hope that helps.

All the best...

My Stores admin isn't called admin...just didn't want to put it on the forum..what have I done wrong?

thenameofmyadmin/includes/extra_datafiles/ceon_uri_mapping_filenames.php

Thanks for your quick response :smile:

Hi all,
I have just installed this add-on and have read all the instructions from top to bottom but it seems I am still having problems with the htaccess file, copy of my htaccess log shown below:

Code:

---

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}    ^nameyourgift.ie$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.nameyourgift.ie/$1 [R=301,L]

# Don't rewrite any URIs ending with a file extension (ending with .[xxxxx])
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.[a-z]{2,5}$ [NC]
# Don't rewrite admin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/MYADMINFOLDER [NC]
# Don't rewrite editors directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/editors [NC]
# Don't rewrite cPanel directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/cpanel [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/frontend [NC]
# Handle all other URIs using Zen Cart (index.php)
RewriteRule .* index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]


<FilesMatch ".*\.(js|JS|css|CSS|jpg|JPG|gif|GIF|png|PNG|swf|SWF|xsl|XSL)$">
  Order Allow,Deny
  Allow from all
</FilesMatch>

IndexIgnore */*

I have tried various combinations of the above code but without success. At the moment I have removed the last RewriteRule (i.e. index.php) as when its included I get "Unable to display page". My site is working fine, just can't get the Static URI working! btw the first redirect rule i.e. redirecting non www to www address is working fine. I appreciate any insight of what I could be doing wrong.
Thanks

Still not working...I have an htaccess file...should I have added something to this file for this module?

Any help? :dontgetit

Thanks
