Really? You can prove it?

Ok let's pretend you just installed SEO URLs. Now whenever you submit your deep links to directories or other sites link to your pages, they are going to use the SEO URLs that are displayed when they browse your site.

When you create an RSS feed and submit it to many feed and blog sites, you've created a large number of links back into your site. It would be optimal to use the same URLs as the ones that are already being promoted rather than a different PHP URL. It goes back to the argument that numinix.com is different than www.numinix.com. Both of these addresses will have a different PageRank. So it is best to stick to one format in all of your links, just the same as with PHP URLs vs SEO URLs.

I am not endorsing SEO URLs at all. I'm merely saying that if youve decided to go this road, you need to stick with it in all of your links.

Of course.

Since the add-on is based on a commercial script, I've added it as a commercial product on my website. All of my other contributions will still remain free.

Hello there.
Question regarding the problem with duplicate content from two URLs: regular URL and and rss feed generated URL: See the URLs below:
rss feed URL
vs
regular URL

Will Google penalize (or drop) one of the URLs as shown above from their database due to both URLs are indeed with the same content.

And how this module affects the organic search results from the major search engines?

Somebody out there probably did some research regarding this. Please share...

I have a weird problem.

24h after installed this contrib. on my test site and my website I have this msg:


1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'EXPECTED_PRODUCTS_SORT limit 10' at line 7
in:
[select p.products_id, pd.products_name, products_date_available as date_expected from zen_products p, zen_products_description pd where p.products_id = pd.products_id and p.products_status = 1 and pd.language_id = '1' and p.products_date_available >=20071109 order by EXPECTED_PRODUCTS_FIELD EXPECTED_PRODUCTS_SORT limit 10]


like brimsjewelry and misty before but with the latest version (I tried 2.0.7 and 2.0.5).

Of course I cannot perform a full restore of the database (Powweb...) even if you have a full backup but if I know which part of the dadatabase to restore I might be able to fix it ...

I didn´t see any issue with MySQL 5.0.45 and this contrib.

The only info I have is taht just after the installation I have another error:

'SQLPATCH', 'Cannot insert configuration_key "" because it already exists', '2007-11-08 11:31:41', 'INSERT INTO configuration (configuration_id, configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, date_added, use_function, set_function) VALUES'

The RSS is generated and available even after this msg.

If somebody have any idea, well it would be just great.

Better to disallow the indexing of the feed url, it´s a lot of literature out there speaking about this

I think it explains in the readme.txt how to set it up to use Ultimate SEO URLs. Your URLs on your website should be the same as in your feeds. For those using Magic SEO URLs, I've released an add-on on my website that also works for all my feeds as well as Andrew's RSS. I'll be updating it to work with many more modules as well.

It looks like you increased the "Default Products Limit" value too much and your thumbnails are about 10x the filesize they should be. It would not suprise me if this combination "kills" the server. Not sure how many products you are showing, but 400 products x 25kb per average image x nr of viewing visitors (for example) is a lot of data to feed.
