PM me both ftp and site admin login info ^_^
Yellow thank you for all your help. My Paypal IPN is now working. I can either use Paypal IPN or Paypal Express to receive payments from my customers, and like me and you talked I to like Paypal express better over IPN. Thank you again.
Thanks to iStarBox, we fixed a bug which will cause SSU to display some weird links for review etc...
Please go into includes/init_includes/init_ssu.php
Around line 292 you will find:
Please replace it by:Code:elseif($parameters[$i]=='products_id'){
$products_id = $parameters[++$i];
if(!$is_product_info_page && !$is_category_page)
$params .= "/%s";
}
This will be addressed in the next version, of course. Also, on the other hand, I'm considering some changes in the new version, which I will post right after this, please let me know your thoughts and suggestions.Code:elseif($parameters[$i]=='products_id'){
$products_id = $parameters[++$i];
if(!$is_product_info_page && !$is_category_page)
$params .= "/%p";
}
Here is the deal:
Currently, SSU supports all kind of links, doesn't matter if those links belong to zencart core or not.
SSU also put the category name and product name on the links as well.
Now some people sent me msg asking for 2 things:
1. they want sub category link to be like this:
car-1/honda-2/civic-3/
instead of car-honda-civic-1_2_3/ (which is what we currently have)
--> this is fine, if everyone wants it, we can do it
2. they want no extra character on the link, for example, when you look at your links now, the category names will have a c in there, product names have a p in there:
car-c-1/
--> This feature they want is exactly the way Magic SEO URL, a paid seo module for zencart does. Now, let me admit that Magic SEO URL is superior than SSU in some fields, but it is a matured product (developed for a while), and it has its own drawback too.
It support only core links, that mean links generated by the modules you installed are not seo link at all. And even some core links are not fully supported.
Now Im not saying that Magic SEO was badly coded, it's just that there are some technical difficulties.
Back to the problem, if I have to remove those special characters, I will have to rewrite the code to do some guess work (yes, how will you know if car-5 is a parameter name, a category name, or a product name? you have to do the guess and testing etc....). Which means SSU may not be able to support as many as it can now. Now we run into the same problem Magic Seo faces.
SO I want to hear your thought, and your suggestions regarding this issue. I know many of you have so many great ideas, dont hold back, share them with me.
Regards.
Hi Yellow, and thank you for this great Module.
I like it just as it is. I know some people want things differently and please don't take this the wrong way, they should pay you for changing the code just for that purpose or go buy the Magic SEO if it will do the things they want. Everyone doest need to remove those special characters like me. Thats the way I see anyway. Good Module Yellow.Quote:

Hi Yellow, Thank you very much for the help.
Now my site works well:clap:
If category is deep, it's not good for seo is it? so i am satisfied with what we currently have which shows only one category.
I ask you for people who want sub category link to be like this:
car-1/honda-2/civic-3/, is it possible to choose and decide above 2 choices from admin?
I think to remove those special characters is good idea, if i can remove special characters, link address will be more tidy.
but i don't know how difficult it is to remove those, and you said SSU may not be able to support as many as it can now,
that's bad news... i prefer SSU support rather than removing special characters.
Regards

I understand this point, I want to remove them too, but we have a problem (someone please enlighten me)
this-is-a-cat-c-5
--> Thanks to the c, I have a way to know this is a category name
this-is-a-cat-5
--> How can I know if this is a:
a. just a page name
b. just a normal parameter
c. a category name
d. a product name
I will need to write specific rules for each case (for example, if this is a product_info page, then we must have cat name followed by product name, etc....)
Of course, if we go that way, we can not cover all the cases, such as links generated by other modules.
Maybe there is a way, if you do have any idea, share with us ^_^
I'm sure there's a fix so can someone help.. Paypal quit working after the seo mod install.. So what should I do? I tried to exclude checkout_success but it didnt work... When customer returns from paypal order is not registered and the order number doesn't change from last..
There are a number of things needs to be checked:
1. Make sure you use the most recent version (if you want me to check it for you, pm me the ftp info)
2. Make sure you updated all the patches for paypal ipn (especially if you are on version prior to 1.3.8)
3. Check if you are using CURL proxy,
4. Check if you entered your email correctly in paypal setting (the paypal email you use in zc admin has to be exactly the same with the one you have on your paypal profile, and it is CASE SENSITIVE)
5. Check if you entered the correct PDT token
Also, turn on the debug, make sure you also do this to turn on extra debug as well:
create a new file:
/includes/extra_datafiles/ipn_debug_on.php
with this content:
<?php define('IPN_EXTRA_DEBUG_DETAILS', 'All');
just wanted to say welcome back yellow! I've been waiting for the IPN fix to install this mod, and now that it's here I can't wait to install it. I'll let you know how it goes.
It's great that you have been so helpful to everyone so far. We all appreciate it.
