    Default Sideboxes Stopped Working

    I have uninstalled my wordpress on zen cart mod and now all of my ez pages dont work. Everything else seems to be functioning on the site and the links appear to be going to the right places but when you click on them I get "Oops! This link appears to be broken."
    I dont know what I could have deleted to make this happen or if maybe i messed up something in my htaccess page but if anyone would point me in the right direction i would really appreciate it.

    Do the pages show up in the admin Tools menu?

    Yes, they show up there just like they are supposed to and even give me a preview of what its supposed to look like. But the links just say they are broken when you click on them from the shopping cart.

    It's just that the link is weird if the EZ Pages are supposed to open on the main page or if they are external links.

    Just love the auto spell checker.

    What it means is that the system is providing links that don't meet the standards for either a main page or external page link.

    I'd guess it's your SEO URL rewriting mod that's gone haywire somehow.

    Here's one of your EZ Pages:

    Here's what Zencart is looking for:

    Note that all your Information box links aren't working, either.

    And one of the reasons the posting tips asks for mods installed.

    Default Re: Sideboxes Stopped Working

    In trying to get my wordpress installation to work I turned off Ultimate SEO urls for a second.

    Sorry I did not put what mods were done. All of the information I had on what mods I installed previously are on my old computer and I dont know what all of them are.

    Any idea on how to fix this?

    You don't need to do anything with Zen Cart for SEO EXCEPT simple meta tags and a good product description. The search engines will handle the links just fine.

    In fact Google would prefer you not SEO and yours is one of the reasons stevesh and I do NOT recommend using any SEO. It, more often than not, just leads to link problems on the site and for the legitimate search engines.

    And I would rethink Wordpress if you can. They are not quite up to date with their security fixes and have been known to be the portal for hackers to gain access to your site.

    BOTTOM LINE

    Try removing all instances of any SEO program and see if the links for the easy pages don't recover. If you have used any TinyURLs in the EzPages, I'd take them out as well for now.
