Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

[yellow1912]

Nothing seems wrong(except that we dont know if mod_rewrite works or not), can you temporarily turn the module on again so I can see this 404 error?

Go to extras->ssu manager to clear cache first
It's kinda weird, doesnt seem like mod_rewrite is on btw

Also, change your htaccess to

#### BOF SSU
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
# Make sure to change "zencart" to the subfolder you install ZC. If you use root folder, change to: RewriteBase / 
RewriteBase /




# Deny access from .htaccess
RewriteRule ^\.htaccess$ - [F]

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule .* - [L]

RewriteRule ^(.+) index.php/$1 [E=VAR1:$1,QSA,L]
#### EOF SSU

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^rickiesdiscountelectronics\.com$ [NC]
 RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.rickiesdiscountelectronics.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Opps, should be

#### BOF SSU
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
# Make sure to change "test_site" to the subfolder you install ZC. If you use root folder, change to: RewriteBase / 
RewriteBase /zencart/

# Deny access from .htaccess
RewriteRule ^\.htaccess$ - [F]

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php?/$1 [E=VAR1:$1,QSA,L]
#### EOF SSU

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^rickiesdiscountelectronics\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.rickiesdiscountelectronics.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Just fixed it when i reuploaded the htacess i think i left a line out u can check it now its working...

how often should i clear the cache

Also i had magic seo url before this and this works like 50 times better...magic seemed to slow my site down drastically thanks a lot

[yellow1912]

Please change it to the latest one I posted, it is a more correct version.

Clear cache when you make changes to category/product names
Or when you make changes in the SSU setting that may affect how the names are generated.

Otherwise, no need to clear cache.

That is great to hear, magic seo does have it difficulty, as a commercial module it is not allowed to touch any of Zen's core file, so it has to work the other way around (actually this is not completely true, it does touch application_top.php)

Anyhow, it is still a good piece of software ^_^, it's just not free.

im having a problem though with this mod when i turn it on all my links generated by my magic seo url end up dead which is gonna be a problem any way to get this mod to recognize the ones that are already indexed
