Chemo's Ultimate URL's

[lina0962]

Hello,

I followed every instruction to intall Unimate SEO files onto my server. Then the site is completely down. The error information is like this"

1054 Unknown column 'c.parent_id' in 'on clause'
in:
[SELECT c.categories_id as id, c.parent_id, cd.categories_name as cName, cd2.categories_name as pName FROM categories c, categories_description cd LEFT JOIN categories_description cd2 ON c.parent_id=cd2.categories_id AND cd2.language_id='1' WHERE c.categories_id=cd.categories_id AND cd.language_id='1']

When I deleted the include/auto_loaers/configure.ultimate.seo.php, the site came back as normal. Why? What is the problem? How should I fix it?

On my .htaccess file, I have this:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^.loveinrose\.com [nc]
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.loveinrose.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Is this right? Please check my site www.loveinrose.com. Thank you for help!!

Hey great! I never got this to work on my old site but I followed the very clear instructions up until the part that said 'to be added'. Course being a bit dim, it took me a while to realise I had to switch all the core switches to on :)

But thanks I have wanted to use this for ages, If I can get it installed, with my monsterous template and god only knows what else I have lurking inside, anyone can!

Hello, Masters of SEO:

I just intalled new SEO 3.0 onto my site. Strange things happend:

When you go to my site www.loveinrose.com, no matter you click on "site map", "contact us", "privacy", they all just stay in the home page. Obviously the URL doen't redirect correctly...

Here are my html-output.php

/**
* Seo Urls zen_href_link replacement
*/
function zen_href_link($page = '', $parameters = '', $connection = 'NONSSL',
$add_session_id = true, $search_engine_safe = true, $static = false,
$use_dir_ws_catalog = true) {

return $GLOBALS['SeoUrl']->buildHrefLink($page, $parameters, $connection,
$add_session_id, $static, $use_dir_ws_catalog);
}
/*
* The HTML href link wrapper function
*/
function zen_href_link_stock($page = '', $parameters = '', $connection = 'NONSSL', $add_session_id = true, $search_engine_safe = true, $static = false, $use_dir_ws_catalog = true) {
global $request_type, $session_started, $http_domain, $https_domain; 

And here are my .htaccess file.

##### NOTE: Replace /shop/ with the relative web path of your catalog in the "Rewrite Base" line below:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine Off
RewriteBase /


# Seo Urls version 3.x
# Don't rewrite real files or directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index\.php?seo_url=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L] 

Any problem? Please check my site www.loveinrose.com to see what I mean.

Searched, searched and searched for the answer to this.

I have been trying to stop google indexing my pop up images when using Ultimate URL's.

i.e. Google is indexing http://www.mysite.com/productname-pi-productnumber.html

It is easy to stop this if Ultimate SEOs is not implemented, by adding popup_image,popup_image_additional in the metatags.php file under ROBOTS_PAGES_TO_SKIP.

Can this be stopped when Ultimate SEOs is implemented? It is obviously critical for SEO as the pop up image is a dead link, which is bad!

Anybody know how to fix this?

Thanks:

Hello.

After I followed the PHF file of guide and intalled SEO 3.0 onto my server, I noticed several problems on my site:

http://www.loveinrose.com/index.php?=site_map, 
http://www.loveinrose.com/index.php?=about_us, 
http://www.loveinrose.com/index.php?=contact_us, 
http://www.loveinrose.com/index.php?=privacy... 

All become

http://www.loveinrose.com (the home page) 

For any page who originally is, for example,

http://www.loveinrose.com/index.php?=page&id=11&chapter=0, 

It become

http://www.loveinrose.com/?id=11&chapter=0 

And doesn't show the right page or product.

This is my .htaccess page:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

# Seo Urls version 3.x
# Don't rewrite real files or directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index\.php/$1 [L,QSA] 

Can anybody point out where is wrong? Thank you!

Have you switched all the switches on the admin side? The URL plug ins?

You might be interested in the following:

1) in the robots.txt file that should be in your root, add

User-agent: Googlebot-Image
Disallow: /

This will disallow google images to index all the images of your sites.
All your pages will still be indexed though

2) in your .htacess file, add the following:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://images.google.com$ [NC] 
RewriteRule !^403.htm$ - [F,L] 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://images.search.yahoo.com$ [NC] 
RewriteRule !^403.htm$ - [F,L]

this will prevent anybody accessing your site from google image to see your site

hi what is the latest version of the SEO mod and where can I get it?

Does it work with EZ pages and where can I view a working site that is using it with the EZ pages and the lastest Zen Cart? I have this SEO mod installed but it doesn't seem to be working for my EZ pages. Is that something I am missing?

EZ page...

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

# This will disallow google images to index all the images of your sites.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://images.google.com$ [NC] 
RewriteRule !^403.htm$ - [F,L] 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://images.search.yahoo.com$ [NC]

I'm just wondering if anyone has encountered the following in their URL:

mysite.com/gift-certificates-c-57
mysite.com/gift-certificate-p-680

apparently the letter "c" stands for category while "p" stands for product, and the numbers are their ID. Any advise on how to remove these trailing letter-number pair?
