Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

[conor]

Hi,

Somebody has already posted this problem when using Sitemap XML with Ceon URI Mapping. He was advised to disable "Genarate language ID" in Sitemap XML setting. But this doesn't work for me. I'm having this problem since I've installed URI mapping so I guess it is related to this.

First off, make sure you have made the correct changes to html_output.php - if they weren't made the you'll get a redirect problem.

If that's not it, then, sorry, but as you are the only one having this problem then you'll need manual debugging to find out why.

Ask your developer to debug this for you, to find out what URIs are redirects.

In a standard installation of Ceon URI Mapping, setting things as you mentioned above means that things work fine.. if things aren't working fine either you've messed up installing or something's wrong on your site.. the module is not the source of the problems.

All the best..

Conor

I'm working on a zen cart that is using an index.html as a cover page until the cart is ready.

I installed uri mapper last night and now the index.html won't load. The site opens to index.php.

I disabled the last line of the htaccess rule

RewriteRule .* index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

Doing this allows the index.html page to load but now the index.php won't load at all. The site remains on the index.html. Well I can't get any work done that way so I have to re-enable that.

Next I tried adding this .(html) rule

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.[a-zA-Z]{2,5}$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} \.(html)$ [NC]

That didn't help. I need the index.html page to load first and still allow the index.php to load when called for directly by adding index.php to the main url

Is there something I can add to the htaccess file so this can happen?

I don't know how to write htaccess rules. I'm a copy/paste kind of gal when it comes to htacess.

Yes there is.. You're making a lot of work for yourself trying to make this setup work..

Why not simply create a subdomain and put your store there until you are ready to go live. It's easy enough to transfer from your development store from the subdomain to your production (live) store location. This way you can develop the store in a place that others may not know the URL and leave your placeholder index.html in place.. PLUS you'll have a parallel place to do testing away from your live store should you need to make changes/updates to your live store.

I don't know how to write htaccess rules. I'm a copy/paste kind of gal when it comes to htacess.

I strongly suggest you get yourself up to speed on .htaccess files and how they work so that when you copy and paste you are understanding what you are copying and what you are pasting.. I don't profess to know ALL the ins and outs of Unix directives, but I do know Google is a wonderful resource for getting yourself up to speed. It's exactly how I learned how to use .htaccess to password protect a folder.

BTW.. NONE of this has anything to do directly with the Ceon URI Mapping (SEO) module.. ie: the issue you are having is not directly cause by this module.. So I do suggest that any further discussions on this topic should be in a separate thread..

Hi,

I installed uri mapper last night and now the index.html won't load. The site opens to index.php.

This is because Ceon URI Mapping sees index.php, index.php?main_page=index and / all as the same (which is a good thing ;) ).

You basically want to temporarily have '/' as '/index.html' but '/' is currently assigned to '/index.php'.

You should be able to have /index.html take control of / by adding the following to the rewrite rule:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/$

This stops / being rewritten and passed on to /index.php

All the best..

Hi

This is my very first post, so if I am not adhering to all the rules, please be patient.

my site is: http://bag-a-party.co.za/shop

Zen Cart 1.3.9h is installed in the directory called shop.

I have two questions:

1.) Is CEON URI Mapping version 3.8.0 the latest available version?

2.) If so, will it work with my version of Zen Cart (1.3.9h).

[ I see in the /ceon_uri_mapping__3.8.0_for_zc folder that it only seems to cater for up to 1.3.9f.

[Bag-A-Party]

Sorry. I should have scanned through the forum first. I've found the answers.

So version 3.8.0 of Ceon URI Mapping (currently the latest) does work with version 1.3.9h of Zen Cart.
