Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

[Jerry5763837]

You will have to change the category level limit to 1 first, then you will have to clear cache. Every time you change setting you have to clear cache via Extras->SSU manager

hi, yellow,

i already change max category level to 1, and clear all cache,
but problem still exist.

SSU auto alias is not working on your site, because with alias on you cant have that type of link.

You may want to clear your alias database via phpmyadmin, and then make sure you clear up ssu cache. You should see xyz files removed when you click on clearing ssu cache. And im not talking about your browser cache btw.

Huhm, after rechecking, here is the problem:

See black-white-wooden-hanger-c-66_73? I bet you have more than 1 cat/product with this name black-white-wooden-hanger, in these cases ssu can only remove the identifier from 1 of those because otherwise it will get all confused and your links all pointing to the wrong location.

If you want, you can manually set alias for these special categories via alias manager, but you MUST make sure you give each cat a unique alias such as black-white-wooden-hanger-blah, and black-white-wooden-hanger-bluh,......

And then clear cache,

hi, yellow,

it is so strange.

when cleared, it do shows that "149 file(s) removed. "

but why my alias did not working? following is my .htaccess

#### BOF SSU
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
# Make sure to change "zencart" to the subfolder you install ZC. If you use root folder, change to: RewriteBase / 
RewriteBase /

# Deny access from .htaccess
RewriteRule ^\.htaccess$ - [F]

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php?/$1 [E=VAR1:$1,QSA]
#### EOF SSU

what problely the problem is, and how to solve this?
btw, how to clear alias database via phpmyadmin(i know how to login into phpmyadmin, but do not know which file i should to clear)

thanks.

hi, yellow,

sorry, there is only 1 category named "black-white-wooden-hanger"

this is very strange.

of course, i can manully adit eahc url by alia manager, but it is time-waste if have thousands of products.
please help!

[yellow1912]

You should check to see if any product or category name may have that name. Otherwise, try to clear alias database then clear cache.

You may want to check your version, if you downloaded the module from zen download page then it is rather old. You can find the newest from my sig link

[xordox]

Did you disable old alias?

Yes, I deleted old alias.
original link
first alias new alias

[yellow1912]

You should not have deleted them, just disable is better.

Anyhow, so you deleted the old alias and then also cleared cache? And it still doesnt work as it should? Can you please post or pm me example links?
