Re: Magic SEO URL vs Ultimate SEO URL vs SEO_G
Some BS was written last days in this thread by posters with no good SEO knowledge. I only clarify some pending questions (thanks BlessIsaacola for defending).

The price is not low, but is lowest as possible, because Magic SEO URL is not add-on in traditional understanding. It was not developed by altering Zen Cart API as Ultimate SEO URLs does, but it uses special original-written PHP techniques which was very hard to develop.

Re: Magic SEO URL vs Ultimate SEO URL vs SEO_G
I too am using Magic SEO Urls. the URLS themselves are going to be slightly better for SEO. To me, that is worth the money, even if it is only a slight boost.
my only gripe with Magic SEO is that the "buy now" button on my site no longer works after installing it. i have unfortunately had to remove it and just go with the "more info" link.
response from developer: "make sure you have cookies enable"
perhaps that most useless response ever.
The button works just fine when Magic SEO is uninstalled.
There is also sitemap add-on, but the documentation is nothing short of useless.

Magic SEO URLs...[gives]...no way to tell programatically what the new URLs are going to be (unless you wanted to go to the trouble of writing a function to emulate how it builds its URLs).
Just discovered there is in fact a function in MSEO to do this:
HTML Code:
unmagicseomakefancyurl($url)
. Should change any Zen URL you pass it to its MSEO counterpart.
(Discovered by decoding the (annoyingly) Zend-encoded MSEO code.)

Michael, I have send about 12 messages to you and all other troubles were fixed by following my directions successfully (correct me if I am wrong). The problem with buy_now link is really something with bad coding or with bad configuration (lot of ZenCart, osCommerce etc. are configured incorrectly or more precisely are working, but not completely).

How did you decode it? I would like to "look under the hood" of my MSU install to correct a few things, too. Then maybe I would re-install it. :D

Jiri, I would like to rule out Magic SEO as the cause, but i cannot seem to find anyone with a store who is using magic SEO in conjuction with the buy now button. The fact is, that when i had the Magic SEO uninstalled, the button works.
Dont get me wrong, I like the mod. Google crawls my pages much faster when i have it installed.
If someone here with Magic SEO installed, will turn on the buy now button feature i their shop and confirms that it works, then I will be satisfied that it is something i screwed up.

Which Buy Now button are you talking about? IS this a standard Zen Cart function that is not working or is this a Mod that you installed?
Thanks!

Thanks!
it is a standard Zen Cart feature.
I am referring to the setting under
Configuration --> product layout --> display product add to cart button.
setting it to "1" will enable the "buy now" button on your product listing page. I currently have it set to "0" which gives me a "more info" text link instead of "buy now".
Can you see if it works on your site and the an item is successfully added to the cart?

Well, you can test it on our site from my signature. I am not sure I understand your issue. I don't Configuration - Product Layout. I have a Configuration - Product Listing and I have Configuration - Product Info.
What version of Zen Cart are you using? I will be glad to turn on the feature (if it's not turn on already) if you can give me information on where to turn it on.
Check out site to see if what you're discussing is also happening.
