Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

[DivaVocals]

If this is the FULL contents of your .htaccess file, then I strongly suggest you go back to Conor's readme file and re-read the section on how to configure your .htaccess file carefully..

It sounds to me like you have one or both of the following issues going on:

1. Your .htaccess file is NOT in the right location (should be in your store's root folder
2. Your .htaccess file is not setup correctly.

Hi Ceon,

Sorry I was away... I create a .htaccess file with " # Don't rewrite admin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/store_manager [NC] "

* I changed ' store_manager ' to my admin folder name

and place the file in the root where is the same level as 'admin ' , ' include ' , ....

and everytime when I check the box of ' Tick this box to have the URI auto-generated for this category', the page becomes ' Page not found '

Delete whats in your .htaccess file and put this in it. Fill in all the red highlights to what yours are. Upload it to your root and see if it will take care of your problem.

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^your.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.your.com/$1 [R=301,L]
# Don't rewrite any URIs ending with a file extension (ending with .[xxxxx])
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.[a-z]{2,5}$ [NC]
# Don't rewrite admin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/admin_or_your_custom_folder_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]

Hi,

I followed your instruction and then I suddenly can't log in to admin account.

Hi,

Sorry I was away... I create a .htaccess file with " # Don't rewrite admin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/store_manager [NC] "

The .htaccess file must have several lines just like in the example in the documentation.

All the best..

Hi,

No offense Karen but you don't seem to take the time to read what people are saying or what is written in documentation. You should pay more attention to the information available to you.

It sounds like you've got the rewrite rule entered in a .htaccess file, which has been put in the correct place and is now being used.

What It sounds like what you haven't done is followed DivaVocals' instructions and changed the line:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/admin_or_your_custom_folder_name [NC]

To use your admin directory's name, e.g.

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/store_manager [NC]

Once you make that change your admin will no longer be blocked!

Hope that helps! If it doesn't, please read the documentation again before asking any further questions.. there is a FAQs section in the docs as well.

All the best..

Please re-read the FAQ.. Your .htaccess file is OBVIOUSLY not set up correctly.. CountryCharm has ALL BUT written it out for you, Conor and I have tried to re-direct you in the right direction, and you are still having issues.. If you are not understanding the directions for doing this, then the next step (IMO) is for you to PAY someone to help you configure this module for you..

Hi DivaVocals,

How are you? :)

Please re-read the FAQ.. Your .htaccess file is OBVIOUSLY not set up correctly.. CountryCharm has ALL BUT written it out for you.

I'm willing to bet that Karen (sung2010) has only read the section of the documentation "Modifying the rule for stores which have renamed the admin directory.".

If she had also read the section of the documentation which proceeds that, "Example rule for stores installed in the root of the site, with the admin named “admin”." then she wouldn't have needed to ask the questions which she has.

I think this serves as a good example of how not to install software by yourself.. if anyone else is having trouble, please always read the documentation in full before posting a question, life is short! :)

Once sung2010 changes the rewrite condition for the admin directory in her .htaccess file as outlined in the docs and by countrycharm (sorry, gave you credit for that DivaVocals by mistake above ;) ), things will work for her at last.

All the best..

Dear All,

I sincerely appreciate your help.. Yeah, I indeed might need to someone to help me out...

I've been reading all threads but.. anyway,, I'll try to figure out again and will post if I can't get it done by tomorrow.

Thank you very much.

I think if you make that one last change to the admin path that will be you sorted! If not, post the contents of your .htaccess file here and tell us the name of your admin folder (you can always change it later by renaming the folder and modifying the .htaccess file appropriately one final time).

All the best..
