Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

[skylab001]

sorry for my ignorance but where do I change,

RewriteBase /zencart/
Should be RewriteBase /

do I change it on the .htaccess or in my config file at DIR_WS_CATALOG

Thanks

ok, I guess I should have looked closer, so after reading the last few post I realized that I change

Rewritebase /zencart/
to Rewritebase /

in the .htaccess file, and great no more error!

But now when you click on a category the only thing that happens is that the page refreshes, but I don't get anything other than the home page. The web address changes, but nothing else....Ideas?

If this happens, this usually means that your webserver is not supporting or not having mod_rewrite enabled. This is something you will have to check with your host.

Gang -

is there a way to modify a particular URL similar to what you can do in WordPress when you write a post?

I looked all over the Simple SEO settings in my ZenCart but wasn't able to find anything relevant.

thanks!

Alias Manager is what you need, go to extras->ssu manager.

I checked with the host and it seems mod_rewrite is enabled, any other ideas?

Post the url to your site.
Post the location of your htaccess
Post the content of your htaccess

You can pm me if you want.

Thanks Yellow! Quick SEO wisdom question. Do you think Google favors aliases to be Permanent or not in terms of ranking?

thanks a ton!

Note that these alias are now your real links. Those old links are now redirected to the new ones. So in any case, avoid changing links unless you really have to.
