Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

[conor]

Hi,

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: zen_catalog_href_link() in /home/shastabc/public_html/store/316BackDoor/includes/header.php on line 230

You seem to have uploaded the wrong version of includes/functions/html_output.php or uploaded it to the "wrong" directory - I'm afraid I must warn you to be more careful in future!

Remember there are two directories which have a file of that name:

admin/includes/functions/html_output.php

includes/functions/html_output.php

You should copy the original files across from a fresh installation of Zen Cart then copy across any modifications you need for the other modules you have installed, using software such as Beyond Compare or WinMerge, before finally copying across the modifications you need for URI Mapping.

If you are uncertain about what any of that means then you should probably pay someone else to do this for you.

Hope that helps!

All the best...

Hi,
Just to start - great mod and very easy to install! Cheers.
I have a problem (I think??) - Install was fine and everything is working. However occasionally when I load a link via google (normally shopping links) that point to my store they seem to go to the wrong product. They normally land on this page

http://www.aworldofpets.co.uk/shop/c...ns-with-catnip

However the URL is for the correct product but shows the chirping bird page!

Is this just my computer or does it happen when others click the links too?

http://www.google.co.uk/products?q=a...ts.co.uk&hl=en

Cheers!
Tim.

Hi Tim,

Glad you like the software!

Is this just my computer or does it happen when others click the links too?.

I can't think of any reason that would happen other than caching in your browser?

I've never used that Google Products thing before, but when I went to it and clicked on all of the links on its first page to products on your site they all went to the products described, as expected!

Things don't happen randomly in computing so if you have this happen again please record all the details you can about it (what URL is shown in google and what URL I goes to [I assume the one you just posted]) and post back here and maybe we can find the source of the problem. As it is everything appears fine!

All the best..

Hi Conor,
Thanks for the prompt reply. It seems fine today! I did test it on the wifes computer yesterday too and the same occurred.
I will keep a close eye on it and update if needed! :]
Cheers again,
Tim.

Hi Conner,
Anything recent on the URI Mappings Manager ? I was just explaining to someone how your product beats the other versions, including the paid ones. The only pain is having to go and "touch" each product to auto-gen the URI.

I asked Magnetic One if they wouldn't mind integrating the URI generation and they promptly reminded me that they have a competing product. :)

Kind regards,
Bil Herd

Hello Conor,

I think there might be a bug with the URI mapping as i am getting the following error when i click on the preview description link in the categories section in admin?

Fatal error: Call to a member function MoveNext() on a non-object in /home/globalm6/public_html/gmadmin/includes/modules/product/preview_info.php on line 98

I was able to reproduce the error globablmemory described in his post on a clean install of Zencart 1.38a. The "preview link" he's talking about that's throwing the error isn't the preview button, but the preview icon on the admin categories page. I'm attaching an image with the icon links highlighted to avoid confusion.

Of course, it's a very minor issue, as I doubt many use those preview links. I hadn't really noticed they were separate links until I clicked one accidentally.

Love the software. Very easy to install.

I concur. I too was able to reproduce this error on all instances where I have installed this moduel.. To tell you the truth, as anal as I am about things need to WORK, I would have never noticed this error either..

Ooops! Wrong thread.

This is already fixed in 3.4.0.

I was amazed that it took over a year for anyone to notice the problem.. shows you that those buttons aren't used by many! I'd never used them myself either! :) (Plus the fix was just the correction of a simple typo! :) )

I'll release the new version sometime this week!

All the best...

Hello,
To start --GREAT mod and documentation. Mod was easy to set up and works fine(even for me), but I have one minor issue. I've read through all the threads but could not find solution to problem below. I hope I didn't overlook it.

I am having the problem Gerjan describe below where the who's online in tools displays something like:/includes/templates/browntemplate/images/TopPanelText1.gif, or rarely the correct updated path ending with /favicon.ico for guest shoppers and registered users. Mostly I cannot tell where they are on my site. Spiders do not have this issue, showing either original path or updated path. I tried the solution he came up with but no success. For me this is minor issue but it was fun to watch customers behavior live on my site. I've been through the threads and looked for any issues others are having but found none. BTW I'm very new to zen. Thanks for any advise.

My htaccess lokks like:

PS I've seen it but forgot where--Where is the paypal link to buy you a pint or two?

Thank you for answering. Sorry for my english. It's not perfect and I sometimes have difficulties explaining (technical) problems. Also, I'm not an expert. I observe, read, ask and copy. Sofar it works



That's the problem... it only links to the template directory, nomatter what page guests and customers are looking at. Strange thing is that spiders like googlebot don't have this problem, they show the original url/link. This problem started right after I installed uri mapping.

But... aftersome research I added this rewrite:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/includes/templates.*

Now it is solved (for as far as I can see) and CEON uri mapping is still working ok. The link that guests are looking at are also the links that are created by uri mapping. Like "bk_fortalit_braadpan_24cm" instead of "index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5&products_id=560".

When I started designing my template 1,5 year ago I have added a menu from Apple Zen Template and one month ago I added a flash header. I think the menu is causing the problem I descriped. If you want to take a look at my site : Pannenland.nl

The only problem to solve now is that my "home"-button redirects to a category instead of the homepage. But that will come soon.

Hope can do something with this information for future questions en development.

Best regards, Gerjan
