Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

[yellow1912]

Sorry I missed your post for some reason

for question 1:
huhm, weird, which version is it?
You can see it is added here:
a. with the cart installed on sub folder
http://demo.rubikintegration.com/ssu (will be redirected to http://demo.rubikintegration.com/ssu/)

b. with the cart installed on root:
http://eazy-templates.com (will be redirected to http://eazy-templates.com/)
The second site is heavily modded with tons of modules btw, and hopefully that will clear up the argument that this module doesnt work well with other modules.

For question 2:
It depends, if you simply want to add.html to the define page without parameters only, it's already there, just turn on.
If you want to add it into category, product links and all, huhm, a bit troublesome.
From your point of view, how would adding .html to the end of the url help? I will add this feature to the next version if it really helps one way or another.

Thanks Yellow....
Here is what I mean

Checked link: http://demo.rubikintegration.com/ssu/index.ph
p

Type of redirect: 301 Moved Permanently

Redirected to: http://demo.rubikintegration.com/ssu

The trailing slash is actually added by ZC after this.... Making it a double redirect.

Checked link: http://demo.rubikintegration.com/ssu

Type of redirect: 301 Moved Permanently

Redirected to: http://demo.rubikintegration.com/ssu/

The issue is that link juice and authority will not pass a double redirect and Google will not follow them either.

2cnd part

the html just gives the essence of a true static page and is favored for usability... In this case the shop owner would like html url for all.

Note that the structure you use, however, makes blocking whole sections in robots.txt w/o dynamic parameters.. a big bonus here as MSN will not read wildcards in robots.txt

So I can block /product_reviews_write/ for example, w/o a wildcard

I wouldn't change it, its fine w/o html... Just asking for the customer.

You are absolutely right for 1st part, and it only happens if the cart is in a sub folder it seems. I will work on that right now.
Should have a fix for that within a few hours.

I will also put the extension on a to do list :)

Not just in a sub folder http://70. 84 .186 .148/

Thanks for your help...

Cheers,

Melanie, can you check again here:
http://demo.rubikintegration.com/ssu/index.php

Does it work the way it should now? :)

[mprough]

K, the fix is very easy and will be included in a new updated package which will be available in a few mins.

But you can just apply the fix without having to download the whole package by editing includes/classes/ssu/cores/link.php

Look for:

// append sid

Add right above it

// add slash if both page and param are empty
if(empty($page) && empty($parameters)){
$link = trim($link, '/');
$link .= '/';
}

[mprough]

Bingo... Thanks

Checked link: http: //70 .84  .186.  148/ index.php

Is the fix for everyone yellow?

[yellow1912]

Is the fix for everyone yellow?

Yup, it's applied to all. Normally on new site you dont have to worry about it. For example, for this site: http://eazy-templates.com we never had an index.php link to begin with, so search engine wouldnt even reach it.
But yeah, fix is applied for everyone, and again thanks Melanie for noticing this.

PS: btw, to any one who is about to install or upgrade your module, this fix is already applied when you grab the package on the download site, so no need to worry about it.
