    Default Shorten URL's code - can I?

    Does anyone have a fix for the extremely long url's I get for all my Pages? In HTML, I could always name my pages to make them releveant, but for 10" stripes, for instance, I get this:

    http://www.baltimorestreetmods.com/i...d=&04ec...8fc9

    shown full length: **ww.baltimorestreetmods.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=6_2&products_id=1&zenid=&04...8fc9

    ***no one is ever gonna remember this if they want to direct a friend to the page.

    When I would much prefer this: http://www.baltimorestreetmods.com/10precut.php

    or ...../05stangstripe.php

    I've been told there is a fix for this, but have scoured the forums for hours with no luck locating.

    Are you seeing the ZenID on every single click? If so that is a bad thing.
    Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

    Yes it is...... and suggestions as to how to fix it?

    Aside from this issue, everything else seems to run fine...... (well, aside from the fact that when my payments show up in paypal, sometimes they are missing the purchase details, but comparatively that is minor.)

    There are two contributions which you might try testing on a test site to see if they do what you want:

    Ultimate SEO: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35034

    "SEFU That Just Works": http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35057

    Keep in mind that these were not built for the current version of Zen Cart (v1.3.7 as of today); although reading all the way through the discussion threads will show some updates that are available and deals with some known bugs and limitations which some folks may encounter.
