Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

[enzo-ita]

Hi,
I did a search but I am not sure if I what I found answers my question/problem.
I have Ceon working perfectly also with ezpages on a single language site.
Now I am creating a new site which will be bilingual.
Ezpages cna not be created as standard in two languages so I found the mod that do that.
I installed it and it overwrote the ceon ezpages module so the thick this box desappeared.
Returned to the original ceon core file and no problembut no miltilanguage function.
I tryed to mix up the two ezpage files, adding the mods present in the ceon one to the one for multilanguage, but it did not work.
Is it possible to have ezpages with multilanguage function and ceon uri alltogether?
Thanks
enzo

Hi enzo,

Is it possible to have ezpages with multilanguage function and ceon uri alltogether?

Yes, but it requires custom coding to merge the URI Mapping modifications with the Mutli-lang modifications for the EZ-pages.

I'm afraid there's no support for this as standard with the module.

All the best..

Hi Conor & you all

I'm having problems with this mod in the db (ceon_uri_mappings table) I can see that it generates mapings for cat/prod I edited. But on the website links are still zenCart standard plus standard links are not working I get 404 erorr

I'm on 1.3.9h and I'v used 1.3.9d for merging (WinMerge) with my store files (ImageHandler v2.0 , ZenLightBox v1.6.2 , EasyPopulate_v1.2.5.6 & include_and_exclude_tax_in_prices_nettgross_1-23a adds instaled before)

.htaccess file is as folows
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

# ONLY rewrite URIs beginning with /test/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/test/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite any URIs ending with a file extension (ending with .[xxxxx])
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.[a-z]{2,5}$ [NC]
# Don't rewrite admin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/test/MyAdminFolder [NC]
# Don't rewrite editors directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/test/editors [NC]
# Don't rewrite cPanel directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/cpanel [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/frontend [NC]
# Handle all other URIs using Zen Cart (index.php)
RewriteRule .* /test/index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

Hi Jacob,

# ONLY rewrite URIs beginning with /test/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/test/ [NC]

You CAN'T use a test folder for a URI Mapped site.. as soon as you move from /test to / all of your URIs will be broken.

You should set up a test site using a subdomain only, never a folder on the main site.

# Handle all other URIs using Zen Cart (index.php)
RewriteRule .* /test/index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

This is wrong, if the .htaccess file is /.htaccess then the slash at the start breaks it (/test/index.php should be test/index.php). If the .htaccess file is /test/.htaccess then you should have index.php (not /test/ or test/).

As for why your links are using old Zen Cart links, that's a common problem.. you forgot to modify includes/functions/html_output.php

All the best..

thanks Conor for your reply

But it did not help. I moved test store to a sub domain as you said now it's under http://test.alarmy-e.pl chacked includes/functions/html_output.php and WinMerge claims it's identical to file downloaded with Ceon URi also changed .htaccess to

That's good, best way to work! :)

Yes, if that's not there it won't work.

Send me FTP and admin details and I'll take a look.

Just thought I'd come back and let you know I've found a fix to the problem I was having where the cPath extension was incorrectly appended to the end of the URIs.

As Conor said, it is nothing to do with the URI mapping module, it's a problem in the zen_get_product_path function.

The code to fix is here:

Hope this helps!

Yes, thanks that was interesting.. a silly Zen Cart bug, surprised it's only fixed in 1.4.0 and not in 1.3.9.. at least we know what to say if anyone else has the same problem!

All the best..

Hi there

I am just testing a build for 1.3.9h before migrating some sites.
The url is http://www.klasicke-kristalove-lustry.cz/
Unfortunately when you login from the home page then it returns a 404 error!!. This does not happen when I turn off the CEON url rewrite!!

Any idea what the problem is?

This is the htaccess

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^klasicke-kristalove-lustry.cz [NC]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.klasicke-kristalove-lustry.cz/$1 [L,R=301]


# Don't rewrite any URIs ending with a file extension (ending with .[xxxxx])
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.[a-z]{2,5}$ [NC]
# Don't rewrite admin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/piperoom [NC]
# Don't rewrite editors directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/editors [NC]
# Don't rewrite cPanel directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/cpanel [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/frontend [NC]
