What is this file?

Hi

Google has indexed the following file

http://www. ethicalpartybags.com/ -c-.html

What is is as I'm a little worried they may think it is my homepage and it is not!!

Thanks

Sounds like a glitch in a so-called SEO addon of one variation or another.

Thanks for the reply, but i have not added any SEO addons!!

maybe some sort of sitemap addon you've submitted to google?


Zen Cart doesn't generate that kind of URL natively, so it's got to be related to something you've altered either in the store or in something you've instructed google to index.

I beg to differ. All your URLs are not URLs that Zen Cart generates natively. You have some sort of addon installed.
ie: http://www. ethi ca lp ar tyba gs .com/empty-party-bags-c-73.html

I have added the xml sitemap addon. could that be the issue?

No... If all your URL's are ending in .html, then you have added something else. SitemapsXML does not alter the URL format.

Is not native URL behaviour for ZC. You have a SEO module in there somewhere.

Hi

Thanks for all your replies. the only addons I have added are:

xml sitemap
adding customers from admin
editable sidebox
product listing in colums.

I'm getting rather worried!!!

Hi

Just realised I had the following set as TRUE:

CONFIGURATION- SEO URL- ENABLE SEO Url

Would this make a difference?

Also I have now set it as FALSE - will this mean Google will index these new pages and find them the same as the ones it indexed when I had it set as TRUE and think something dodgy is going on?

Thanks

This is a long shot... but go to:

admin >>> tools >>> developer tool kit ...

And do some searches for " SEO " and suchlike...

Use the last field on the screen and select both catalog and admin for the search parameters...

Just try some typical SEO sort of words... This may reveal something.

Also, many mod writers put their names into the PHP heads, so go look at whose been writing such mods and try their nicknames in that search too...
