    Yes how do you get ride of the long php extention on the address bar.. and make it more search engine friendly

    contrary to popular belief,
    the long url isnt a problem

    if you go to google. and do a general search for e-commerce software you will see that zen-cart is on the first page....

    its 6th


    and zencarts website is built on zc software

    I was wondering the same thing and searched for SEO URLS in the add-on modules section and there are several modules available, including this one http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=231 ..... but I havn't used any of them, this one says USE AR YOUR OWN RISK... Sorry I can't tell you anything more, it's on my very long list of things to look into one of these days... I would be happy to hear back from you if you end of using one of these....

    I think seo urls can make a small difference, but more in terms of click rates and bookmarking.
