Ultimate SEO v3 (and v2.200) [Support Thread]

[lhungil]

... I have now noticed is that my main menu is missing for the Ez Pages - is that related to this module?

Nope, all Ultimate URLs does is provide alternative URLs (via zen_href_link). It does not alter or change any HTML, CSS, JS, modules, sideboxes, etc.

I have another newbie question.

I created a define page about_us same as contact_us, /about_us.html and /contact_us.html both work.

With the Ultimate SEO 2.20, the code below

<li><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT . '</a>';?></li>

which generated a static link /contact_us.html.
However,

<li><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ABOUT_US) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT . '</a>';  ?></li>

which generated a /index.php?main_page=about_us link, which is not a seo link.

By the way, the about_us page was added after I installed the plugin.

What is wrong with my installation? How should I do to generate a seo url /about_us.html, instead of /index.php?main_page=about_us.

Check your setting for: "Limit alternate URLS to the following pages".

Thanks you so much.

Additional Question, what is the correct name for manufacturer?

RewriteRule ^(.*)-m-([0-9]+)(.*)$ index\.php?main_page=index&manufacturers_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

... what is the correct name for manufacturer? ...

Not sure what you are asking... The name would be whatever you entered for the manufacturer in the Zen Cart administrative interface.

Are you asking what Zen Cart page handles manufacturer product listings? If so the answer is "index" (same one handling the home page, categories, etc).

One can determine the Zen Cart Page name by looking in one or both of the following locations (xxxx is where the page name will be). n the stock Zen Cart URLs, this appears as index.php?main_page=xxxx. In the installation file structure pages appear at /includes/modules/pages/xxxx.

Thanks for explaining, I see how the plugin works.

I am sorry for my previous confusing question. Here is the problem I want to solve.

My site generates seo links for categories and products etc as expected; but it does not generate seo links for manufacturer links. For example,

index.php?main_page=index&manufacturers_id=19 

should be converted to a seo link

/anyname-m-19 

But it does not convert the link to the seo link.

How should I address the problem? Thank you very much.
