Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

[planatgenet]

Hi,

thanks for the help. Yes I have enabled the local.config.php and the code is the same - I think it must be working as I can make the "es.php" transliterate from any standard letters to any other letters, just not the accented spanish ones which get ignored and replaced by hyphens.

Thanks neodolphin, every time I change something I reset all the caches just to make sure - interesting you had the same problem but reseting the caches didn't work for me, unfortunately.

Just to show an example, the english links are correct:
/en/ecological-jute-bags-c-13

the spanish should be:
/es/bolsos-yute-ecológicos-c-13

but it comes out as:
/es/bolsos-yute-ecol-gicos-c-13

Not sure if this is important but the "es.php" uses "$cyrillic = array" like the "ru.php". Whereas the "fr.php" uses its own "$french = array".

Anything else you can think of that I should check?

Thanks in advance.

One of the things you should check is that you should really make sure the es.php file is saved as unicode utf8. If you still need help, I would be glad to. But I will need temporary access to your admin and ftp in otder to help. If you would like, then pm me

Hello all -

I'm having some trouble getting this to work.

I tried installing the latest version, but ran into errors that were apparently due to a php5 vs. php4 problem. I installed the php4 version over the php5 version and those errors went away.

However, when I enable the SSU, my website won't work. The main page loads fine, but when I click on a category, contact us, etc., I get a 404 page from my hosting company. The address bar shows the simple URL, but I get the 404. As soon as I disable, it works again. I tried doing the clear cache thing after I enabled but it didn't work. I have no idea where to even start troubleshooting this . . . any suggestions?

This same thing happened when I tried (I believe it was) the Ultimate URL dealy, which is what led me to try this package.

Thanks in advance -- I'm really excited to get this working!

Same problem for me with "biométrique" doesn't goes to "biometrique" but "biom-trique". The only things I have done is to use config.php instead of local.config.php and it's works. I don't know if it's a good way but why english is defined in config.php and the other language in another ? Because, what I see is that the language variable from local.config.php don't overwrite the other form config.php even with multi-language support

For the $cyrillic and $french it just the name of the variable.

Several things:
1. if you are running 1.3.8 you should be able to ask if your host have php5 available. The switch takes several minutes and totally safe.

2. if you see the 404 page, one possible problem is that you either incorrectly configure your .htaccess file or your host does not support mod_rewrite. You will have to check this out with your host.

the local is there for a reason:
1. Everytime you upgrade, you dont have to worry about the config file in the new package overwrite your own.
2. SSU does take all definitions in the local config file as "priority", meaning the config there does over-ride the default config.

[neodolphin]

I understand that the local is here for a reason but for me if I put exactly the same variable in local.config.php, I have the problem of rewriting over and over like I said in my first post.

Where and when did you get the package? If you redownload it again does it happen again? Go to admin/includes/module_installation/yellow1912_ssu/current_version.txt, does it say Beta 3.7.1?

sitemap xml 2.0 for some reason passes the "language" parameter into the zen_href_link function, this may happen because you have more than 1 language installed on your site? (whether you display multiple language on your site or not)

So you may want to check that, if your site does not have multiple language, you may want to check the sitemap setting. This happens because the module passes the language parameter into the zen_href_link function, this has nothing to do with SSU. The module simply accepts the language param and put into the url.

(BTW, when you upgrade, make sure every file is uploaded including the config.php file)
