Ceon URI Mapping v4.x

[DivaVocals]

i would definately hire someone if this is over my head and i think it might be.. i DID read through all the documentation and my conclusions right now are that this module will NOT accomplish what i need. But it looks like he has a paid module on his website that may accomplish it. although i've tried for 3 days straight to contact him through his website with no responses yet.

not really sure htaccess IS the answer unless i was to have to put over 5000 new statements into it?? to redirect over 5000 product pages to the new URL's since the old URL's are nothing like the new ones generated by this module.

seems to me that there should be a simple solution to this since many? others would, in theory, be moving their sites from other software into Zen Cart. Or is it just newbies that use Zen Cart??

my solution would be:
1. add a field to the products table for 'legacy URL' from your old site.
2. here's where my programming gets a bit fuzzy but there should be a process to take all of the pages/products and look at this 'legacy URL' field and if it's populated create a pointer/redirection to the new URL. maybe this could be done through a CRON job once a day and the results put into the htaccess file?? or some other process??

seems that would solve the redirection problem..

I think you ARE over your head and should give serious thought to hiring someone to help you get this setup the way you want..

Finally you've not followed my other suggestion that you read through this WHOLE support thread to see if your answer is here.. (otherwise you'd know WHY no one from Ceon has responded) If you had read through the support thread you'd know that Conor Kerr (AKA Ceon), the developer of this mod is deceased and NO ONE will be answering your e-mails anytime soon..

An attitude eh?? Oh.. okay..

No attitude.. trying to point you in the right direction.. but clearly you are free to interpret my responses as such..

You don't want to read through the thread??? that's fine.. So here's the long and short..

If Conor was alive he would have probably jumped in and helped you out for no charge as he did for everyone else here.. He's no longer with us, and what you want is very specific. I'm sure this module can do it based on my own usage of it.. So I gave you the hints and suggestion I do have to help you.. There's no QUICK answer to this, and I am not sure that you are going to get much more in depth assistance here beyond that now that Conor is gone.. So I still suggest that you give some thought to hiring someone who has a good understanding of the right Ceon setup and .httaccess you will need to support what you are trying to do..

Happy Zenning..

this all begs the next question as to who supports his software (of all kinds) that is being sold on his website??

None of us knows the answer to this.. Conor was the only face of Ceon that we all knew.. I don't know who is "team" might have been, but if I had to GUESS, it's doubtful it extended beyond Conor..
