Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

Yes, by upgrading to 3.6.1, turning link alias AND auto alias on, then clear your SSU cache via the SSU Manager.

Thanks for the quick reply.

And the huge tip. I'm not exactly how the heck that line got deleted, but thanks for catching my screw up.

Things look like they're working now.

On another note, is it possible to not display the stuff at the end of the product / category name?

for example the p-2136 or the c-45_201_330?

Hi there,

I went ahead and installed the beta version and all seems to be up and working.


I cleaned the cache and set the alias statuses to on. It seems like most of the links don't have the categories numbers at the end and sum do ( ie. click on Graco->Montreal Collection .. )

All the products seem to be working without the extraneous products ids at the end.

I cleaned out the cache again and it didn't change so I'm wondering if I forgot something.

Thanks, bryan

Clear all your current link aliases, the fastest and safest way to do it is to use phpmyadmin and empty that table (empty, dont "drop" it), then clear your SSU cache. Also, what is your setting for max category level?

I've emptied the table and cleaned out the folders in the cache/ssu directory. Max category is set to 2.

Should this work?

Checked it again and it's working!


Is it possible to have the direct links to products display the link as


www.site.com/prodcut-name-here

rather than

http://www.site-com/category/categor...duct_name-here

[yellow1912]

As this time, the only thing you can do (I believe), is to limite the minimum category level to 1.
You can of course use link alias to eliminate the category name, but you have to do so manually for each product. Also, if you do want to do so, make sure you make the link permanent as well.

Yea I think it's working ....

http://www.kids-n-cribs.info/strolle...ilver-stroller

is the path created as the page is rendered.

This link: http://www.kids-n-cribs.info/2009-ma...ilver-stroller

will actually get you to the product, it's just rewritten when the page loads.

For SEO purposes, the more direct link will probably be better. Is there a sitemap that you would recommend over another that would work well with your seo mod?
