Ceon URI Mapping v4.x

[CherVickers]

Several years ago, Conner posted that the ?chapter=0 added to the EZ pages was just part of the way CEON worked. It looks like there may now be a work around available and I saw one other person ask the same question.

I am NOT a developer, but I can follow instructions and do a lot of the work behind the scenes with installs myself if the directions are clear... however, due to my lack of background, there may be things I simply don't understand.

Specifically, this module is working GREAT with my upgraded v1.5.4 cart. (just upgraded 2 days ago). With the upgrade, all my products and categories, etc are good!

Now that I am current, I am hoping I can go back to my CEON module and try to address an ongoing issue:

My EZ pages are picking up the chapter info at the end of the url and I don't use or want that.

It looks like I have the ability to

Remove Words:
This is a comma-separated list of words which will be removed from the auto-generated URIs. Single characters can also be entered but will only be removed if they are surrounded by spaces (e.g. “-” entered below will remove the dash from “Star Wars - Director's Cut” but not from “Spider-Man”). For example, if the store would like to remove “-”, “and” and “an” from the URIs you'd enter the following:
-, and, an

and

Character/String Replacements:
This is a comma-separated list of pairs of characters/strings and replacement characters/strings.
The characters/strings to be replaced in the auto-generated URIs should be separated from their replacements using “=>”. E.g. “£=>GBP, $=>USD”. Any spacing entered for a replacement will be used but replaced with the usual whitespace replacement character (so be careful not leave an extra space at the end of the text entered below if it is not intended!). Spacing entered for the strings/characters to be replaced will be removed/ignored; so it's fine to add a space after each comma, to make things easier to read.
To remove a character/string simply replace it with nothing. E.g. “£=>, $=>” removes £ and $ dollar signs from the auto-generated URI.


I have tried to add in the errant string '?chapter=0' in various ways, but I cannot get this to work for me. I did try to add a new ez page after I wrote the rule and the update note on the page was correct telling me .......com/party-site was correct, but when I pulled it up on a new window, the string was there and the url was ...... com/party-event?chapter=0

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
THANKS!

Anyone?

I am positively no help what so ever but are your EZpages TOC? None of mine are so I do not have the TOC part of them turned off. Have you tried that?

[CherVickers]

No, the are not TOC. That was one of the first things I checked..

ANYONE?

[DarkAngel]

well if they are not toc and you have them set as off in the ezpage setup when you created your page then I have no clue. I do not have 1.5.4 yet but do work on that version of stores for others, they do not have toc set to on and they do not have that showing on their expage headers/footers or sideboxes. sorry no help but also if there was anyone with a clue I a sure they would have chimed in by now.

In v4.4.3. a change was added to the admin html_output.php file.

Quote from the docs:
[ADDED] New core file modification added. The zen_catalog_href_link() function in the admin-side html_output.php file has been modified to make use of Ceon URI Mapping. This will mean that any properly written admin-side software will use static URIs instead of Zen Cart dynamic URIs when generating a link with this function!

I have found that in my case at least, it causes all emails sent from the admin (order status, back in stock etc.) to have an incomplete url in the email for links pointing to the catalog, like their order status.
Eg:
/shop/products etc.
Instead of
http://www.mysite.com/shop/products etc.

This has been mentioned twice in the forums but with no resolution.
It’s hard to believe this has not been flagged up more, so I would appreciate others checking the urls in the clients emails. I have fixed my store, but I’ll wait and see what others find before posting it.

Simple question, maybe not so simple problem.

This may sound odd but I have one version of zencart in the root and one version in a sub-folder - same domain, same database. I want to install this in both versions so that it will work based on where the cart is.

domain.com/directions
doman.com/subfolder/directions.

I got it installed but get a 404 error on this server. Yeah, I checked the installation. It's all correct.

So I guess the question is, has anyone else tried to do this and been successful? I don't know if it's a server htaccess problem or if it just can't be done.

When say same database, these two stores have different DB_PREFIXes correct?

Yes have done it, it can be done, it primarily comes down to the .htaccess(es) as the subfolder in which the sub-site is in (not using a sub-domain) can not be used in the "base" store. Not in a position at the moment to obtain the how it was done. If this avenue is pursued further (and solution not found in ths thread) then I'll try to get to it if someone else hasn't before me.

Can anyone help with cleaning up things like contact us, account and checkout stages (FEC installed) as they are all dirty url's and can't seem to clean them up .. I've been though a few pages , as I'm sure with 188 the answer is there

[torvista]

client emails have broken urls to the shop/their account

...so from the zero response to my question, I can surmise that everyone's email links are correctly formed then?
