Hi Conor
I just thought I would have a look at the debug log and have found this

PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end, expecting ')' in includes/functions/html_output.php on line 894

hi conor

successfully installed ceon uri but have tried a lot but ceon uri are generated but all links give http 404 error mod_rewrite is enabled on apache and my .htacess file looks like

RewriteEngine On

# ONLY rewrite URIs beginning with /zen/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/zen/ [NC]
# 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} !^/zen/admin [NC]
# Don't rewrite editors directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/zen/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]

Hello there,
I just intstalled CEON module, and from the introducing information I find it great, but unfortunately I have one problem.
I installed all the files there from the contribution - 3.6.3
And when I go to Modules => URI Ceon... Nothing happens.
So , this script doesn't create the necessary tables and I am not able to go ahead. I tried to change the permissions on the file, but that didn't help.
Can anyone answer me how I can fix that problem.
Thank you in advance.

I forgot to say that I am running zen cart 1.3.9d, php5 , apache 2 and mysql -5.0.37

Hi,

And when I go to Modules => URI Ceon... Nothing happens.

What do you mean? Please describe things in more detail.

I tried to change the permissions on the file, but that didn't help.

No changes to any permissions are needed for the module.

I'd guess you've simply not uploaded all the necessary files and are getting a PHP error of some sort on the config page. Try uploading ALL of the files again.

All the best..

Well, when I go to Modules => URI ... it shows blank page.
May be there some logs, that I can check for any errors. If it is so, please tell me where I could check(if you know)
I believe it is a PHP error too, I just don't know how to find it.
By the way I tried to upload the files again, and tomorrow I will try to upload them for the third time :)
Hope everything will go well.

Hi All,

Thanks Conor for the awesome module. It works a treat.

An SEO company has contacted me today and made me aware that www.domain.co.uk and www.domain.co.uk/index.php both work and therefore dilute my search engine ranking. (They also pointed out that domain.co.uk and www.domain.co.uk worked, but I've fixed that now).

I can't seem to find a way to make www.domain.co.uk/index.php redirect to www.domain.co.uk/ in .htaccess. Is that possible with CEON? I searched this thread but couldn't find how to do this.

Many thanks for your help

Hi Simon,

Glad you like it! :)

An SEO company has contacted me

An SEO company?

There's LOTS of dodgy SEO companies out there out to make a quick buck. Get recommendations from people who have used any SEO company who contacts you before you ever use such a company. (Just a bit of helpul advice there!).

www.domain.co.uk and www.domain.co.uk/index.php both work and therefore dilute my search engine ranking.

Ceon URI Mapping makes www.domain.co.uk, www.domain.co.uk/index.php and www.domain.co.uk/index.php?main_page= and www.domain.co.uk/index.php?main_page=index all equal by redirecting (with a 301 Moved Permanently redirect) from any of those to www.domain.co.uk/

At least, the latest version does.

This means that to the search engines all four of those variations are the one page.. www.domain.co.uk/

What evidence did this SEO company provide you with that your rankings were being "diluted"?

Given what I've said above about how the module works, with its special handling of the various possible home page URIs, I would find it hard to believe that I've written things incorrectly.

I can't seem to find a way to make www.domain.co.uk/index.php redirect to www.domain.co.uk/ in .htaccess.

With the latest version of Ceon URI Mapping (and possibly the previous few versions, I can't remember offhand) this already happens without any need to modify the .htaccess file. Make sure you are using version 3.6.3!

All the best...
