Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

[thirupathy]

Hi all,
Am newbie for zen cart. as per client requirement i have installed Ceon url mapping module for SEO processing. It was installed successfully and working fine.

the problem is i have created one category. that category will shown as shop/sports (sports is a category). After creation of category i checked it in site. it shows the following error
The requested URL /demo/sports was not found on this server.

But normally the the default zen cart category link is shown as

http://localhost/demo/index.php?main...index&cPath=25

so how to use ceon module for SEO processing. else is there any configuration for this.


Thanks in advance.


regards,

Hi,

The requested URL /demo/sports was not found on this server.

It sounds like you've forgotten to upload a htaccess file.

Or that you have made a mistake when creating one.

All the best..

Hi,



No, I still haven't had any examples of the problem. My request for more information has gone unanswered.

If you have exact examples of what URI the user is going to and what URI they are being mapped to and what cPath etc. is being added please get in contact with me privately via this link (not PM) with all of that information so I can take a look.

I can't fix a problem I can't identify! :)

All the best..

Just thought I'd mention: I had a similar issue with 'old' links having a ?cPath= added to the end of a Ceon url namely in featured, whats new, prev, next ...etc. Note: I do not have any products linked from category to category as mentioned in message #213.

I was on 3.2.2 but upgrading to 3.2.4 solved the problem. Excellent!

I would say that although my web page links are now all neat and tidy, the list of links in a program like Xenu still contains these duplicate ?cPath= affected entries as well as what look to be the pre Ceon urls. I'm not really sure what's going on, but optimistically I guess that's ok and that Google will recognise and deal with these duplicates in a sensible fashion. I'll wait and see.

Actaully I may try the adjust parameters settings in Google Webmaster, although my last attempt wasn't that successful.

Thanks again Conor

Hello Conor,
After using the Ceon URI Mapping (SEO) sevral day, today I found a problem.
for example: if I add catagory
main category: car gps
second sub category: special car dvd with gps
third sub category" toyota gps

and there are some products under sub category of toyota gps.
but when i visit the product in toyota gps catogery, I found the url become this
http://www.jewellet.com/Toyota-GPS/T...?cPath=825_790

every url add ?cPath=825_790
but for other pages with ony two level category don't have such problem.
Regards,
Alan

Hello
Thanks for the module, I am trying this on my test server, before I'm brave enough to try on my live site - the url's generate well, but when I click on a new category or product I've created, I get a 404 message.

I think I have the same problem as thirupathy - the problem is: I don't have an htaccess file, and when I create one, I have a error 500 and can't access my test site or admin area. As you can guess, I am a newbie, I would be grateful to be pointed in the right direction please.

where do I get the htaccess file from?
sorry if that sounds stupid, I can cope with changing files and following instructions, but I'm really stuck here, as my attempts at creating one in a text editor rather went wrong - I have missed a bit along the way :)

This mod is amazing, it is better than SSU which we have been using so far. It is a pity that you cant update all products at one time. If somebody has been so capable to edit somehow quickupdates mod, maybe it would work.

Hello Conor,

I have little problem with this module..

In Admin, when i go to Tools->who is online. Before i installed this module the links which customers is where on my site ware like this:

/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3_4&products_id=10

now the links are strange and shows like this..

admin/includes/languages/slovensko/images/buttons/button_check_new_version.gif

I think there is a problem in one of the Admin files but i dont know where to look...

Btw. SEO links are working great.

Bye,

Its seems to be a problem with .htaccess file on server. When i erase it, links in who is online working fine again.

Rewrite rules in the htaccess file are entered by your module instructions.

I have it like this:

RewriteEngine On

# Don't rewrite any URIs ending with a file extension (ending with .[xxxx])
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$
# Don't rewrite admin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/CUSTOM_NAME.* [NC]
# Don't rewrite editors directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/editors.* [NC]
# Don't rewrite cPanel directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/cpanel.* [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/frontend.* [NC]
# Handle all other URIs using Zen Cart (index.php)
RewriteRule (.*) index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]




Do you maybe know, if i must add something to the rules?

Hi Conor,

I'm having some problems with one category of my shop. I have 2 languages - finnish(default) and english.

If I do as follows:

1. I select a category called picture books
www.mysite.com/picture-books OK
2. Now I try to change the language to finnish
http://www.mysite.com/picture-books?...1d&language=fi FAIL
"Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete"

Same problem otherwise, when changing from fi to en in this one category. All other categories works like a dream. I tested to change category name to "picture-book2" and re-generated URI's and it started to work, but as you might guess I don't wont to put any extra numbers there :)

I hope I was able to dress my problem into words. I would be very pleased if you could give me some help with this.

Thanks already for the best module ever!
