please ignore the above post - I missed the most important content of all in the FAQ's (alas not in the plugin Overview) - 'This module DOES NOT automatically add mappings for EXISTING Categories/Products/Manufacturers/EZ-Pages!' ...... adding mapping per product for 5 websites (= 1000's of products) is too big a task me thinks .... my fault I suppose, an assumption that it would be like USU.

and I have no idea how this works ... 'Redirect the Store's Old/Current URIs - Prevent Broken Links. Stores that have URIs generated by other software, such as Ultimate SEO, Simple SEO, Magic SEO etc., can import these existing URIs as historical URI mappings. The old SEO module's URIs will redirect to the new Ceon URI Mapping URIs, reducing the possibility of broken links from search engines and other sites!


So I will have to wait patiently for someone to fix USU (and continue with suffering rankings)

cheers,
