Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

[conor]

Hi,

Just the few core modified catalog files. Anyway, I just finished it, and that did the trick. Beautiful!

Yes, I knew it was probably just the catalog files as you would have noticed the lack of admin functionality otherwise, but thought it better to get you to check all the files. It's easy to miss one.

I wish core modifications weren't necessary as it's a huge support burden on Ceon.

v4.0.0 now has a configuration check which will check every file to make sure the code modifications are in place in all files.. should help prevent this sort of mistake in future! :)

It's interesting that it has worked okay without it, but that's cool that when fully installed it will use entirely static URLs.

It was written that way on purpose.. I always write software to fall back to the best situation possible. So if something is amiss the software will do its best to remedy or deal with the situation. :)

That costs a a little bit in terms of code efficiency but for such a general module as this, I think that's the appropriate behaviour "as standard".

Glad you're sorted now.

All the best...

Hi,



No.

Try putting a slash in front of index.php and see if that works. If not you might have to pay someone to help you sort out your server as that rule should work.

All the best...

Incase anybody else are having the same problem as me...I got this resolved by inserting " Rewritebase / " under RewriteEngineOn and before any of your rewrites in your htaccess file. This command strips the actual physical path from the redirect (pity my host provider didn't see this as it would have saved myself 2 days in trying to resolve this issue!!)

Thanks for letting people know that.. that's an unusual server setup you have, to require that command.

Just glad you're sorted.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Hi,

I seem to have this working now apart from on a few pages such as the about us page and contact us page etc. (Not EZpages or product pages).

Why would these not be working right?

Thanks

I have tried going into phpMyAdmin and adding the mapping for each page into the database but I can't get it to work...the pages still show the same URL.

..does someone have a screen shot of their phpMyadmin so I can check I am inserting the right info?

I basically followed this: example

Then clicked 'Go'

Thanks

That should have worked.

If it isn't for you then you may need to read up a bit on how to use PHPMyAdmin or get someone else in to help you as you may have messed up a previous database record creation attempt.

The example is perfect.

All the best...

Hi,

...I had about-us instead of about_us within the main_page field

Thanks again..working fine now

Great Mod...why is this not built into Zen Cart automatically?

Great support too and much appreciated

Thank you!

That was a very easy mistake to make.. I've done similar while coding more times than I'd like to admit!

Glad things are sorted now.

All the best...

Hi,
I am using ZC 1.3.9h. In the modified core files list the following files are shown:

-includes/init_includes/overrides/init_add_crumbs.php (Zen Cart 1.3.5 - 1.3.9)
-includes/init_includes/overrides/init_canonical.php (Zen Cart 1.3.9 only)

But these files are not part of ZC 1.3.9. I don't have them in my init_includes/overrides directory. I also checked the 1.3.9h install pack and these files are not there.

Were these two files actually new, and not modified? Do I need to upload them? I just upgraded and don't want to add any files that could cause issues later. It took me two days to find the one little problem that made my upgrade go wrong, and I don't want to do any more trouble shooting this week :).

Thanks,
Lindsay

Now when I try to access my products I get the following error :1146 Table 'my_database.TABLE_CEON_URI_MAPPINGS' doesn't exist
in:
[ SELECT language_id, uri FROM TABLE_CEON_URI_MAPPINGS WHERE main_page = 'product_info' AND associated_db_id = '265' AND current_uri = '1';]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

I understand that I need the db table(s). I am just not sure what is preventing the db script from running?!

Well folks.. thanks for the help! I wiped everything and got it to work on the third try.

What did you do to fix this????
I am on my second . I have the exact same problem. What did you so?

Thanks,
Lindsay
