Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

[FlyingOrange]

On line 16 of the latest version of SSU there is no code refer to yclass, perhaps you do not have the latest version, or perhaps when you upgraded you missed 1 or more files :) Latest version is 3.8.5 btw

Ugh headache. Will go install everything again (4th or 5th time now). Pretty sure it was 3.8.5

Another installation was the charm, working great now, thanks!

I have ssu v3.7.1 installed on zc 1.3.8a and my htaccess is:

#### BOF SSU
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

# 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

and I double checked with my hosting company, mod rewrite is on.

Anything else that I can check?

and yes, I have module manager installed and working.

Hi, guys, I have Zencart v1.3.8,
I installed Module Manager (and its working), and I installed Simple SEO URL Version: 3.5.8.

After finishing the installation, my index page works fine, but I get 500 Internal Server Error on all other pages (links).
The http adresses are good too, for example: for category it would give http://www.MySite/cake-c-3.

I checked MySite/admin configuration, its the same as people suggest in the forum.
I was missing cache/.... directories, so i added them
I checked my htacces in root directory and it seems fine, it reads:

<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>

#### BOF SSU
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
# Change "/zencart/ to the correct setting
# if your site is located at root folder, then you should have RewriteBase /
# Go to your include/configure.php, this value should be the same with the value of DIR_WS_CATALOG
RewriteBase /www.*******.com/

# 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,PT]
#### EOF SSU

Please help!!!!

I don't know what more i can check to make this awesome contribution work.

Thank you!

Difficult to say because your htaccess configuration must be based on the location of your store. You can visit yourstore/ssu_check.php to see the suggested configuration

I have ssu v3.7.1 installed on zc 1.3.8a and my htaccess is:

1. If you server is using IIS instead of Apache, better get the latest version
2. In fact, better get the latest version in any case
3. Make sure you have uploaded ALL files correctly, missing one or two files is not uncommon
4. If all done and still not work, check to make sure mod_rewrite is really working

Its weird, but I think I worked out the kinks here with the htaccess. I noticed one irregularity between what I had and what was suggested (ssu_check) and so I changed it to that and then it started to work halfway. The urls were coming up but the css was not being called. So I checked my error logs and the line that ends with !-f was causing an error and being ignored, so I commented that out, now my css is being called but my admin serves a 500 internal error. So I guessed that it was the line below that (ends with !-d) and commented it out. Now it works! Both front and back ends and the css is being called!

Now I just need to know how to set the ssu config in admin so that my urls are better.

Currently, I am getting:

www.domain.com/air/air/replacement - for the product info display pages. How do I configure ssu so that it writes it like this:

http://www.domain.com/engine-and-dri...k-n-air-filter etc

I'm the top level cat and then the product name should work well.

Please remember I have ssu v3.7.1. Thanks so much for your help :)

Better check your htaccess, perhaps you should post it here. Remove or editing htaccess rules correctly may have serious effect

If you look in your admin, so will see the current divider for categories being set as "/", you can change it to something else and reset ssu cache. If you have SSU Alias on you will need to clear out alias table as well.

As suggested by you, please have a look:

#### BOF SSU
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

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

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

#### EOF SSU

The lines that end with !-f and !-d are the ones I commented out, everything seems to be working fine....
