Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

[yellow1912]

This is indeed weird, because it has never happened before as you can see your issue is indeed unique if you search this thread.

I suspect something wrong with your current store setting, but I cant say which exact part is wrong unless I look at your files. I cannot offer further help at this stage, if you want you can pm me your admin and ftp temporary login so I can take a look for you, otherwise there is nothing else I can do for you. Sorry

Having the same problem with SSU as nintendoparts with category showing up like -c-31 instead of the usual great URLs. Most categories and sub categories show up with the right category name in the url except for two of them which use the category ID. Did you find a solution?

I'm using ZC 1.3.9f and SSU 3.8.5.

Thanks,
Sharon

You may perhaps have the same setting then: note that you cannot set the category depth level less than 1, 1 is the minimum level (for now)

Thanks for all the help yellow1912

I have now set my max category level to '2' and category separator to '-', and I'm now getting nice URL's like:

.nintendoparts.com.au/ds-lite-screens/ds-lite-bottom-lcd-screen

still can't get .html extensions to work, but this will have to do.

Bummer. My category level is set to 2 so that's not it. All my categories/sub-cats work beautifully except for 2. I'm working on the site offline right now but could make it available if someone can help on this one stinking little problem.

Other than these two sub-categories, I'm loving Simple SEO URLS!!

@ shananny
Have you tried setting your max category depth to 3, I found setting mine to 1 didn't quite give the result I wanted as most of my categories are 2 deep. If your categories are 3 deep you may need to set max category to 3?

My SSU module now keeps becoming non-functional after a day or so, argh! My URL's are all showing like:

.nintendoparts.com.au/ds-lite-screens/ds-lite-bottom-lcd-screen?zenid=2h7oibn6p685grbah3ta7m55l0

I reset my browser cache, and it still shows the non-SSU URL's. I double checked that the SSU status is set to true in the admin configuration.

If I re-update the SSU status to true in the admin configuration my URL's switch back to:


.nintendoparts.com.au/ds-lite-screens/ds-lite-bottom-lcd-screen

Now that I'm getting nice SSU URL's I'd really like the module to stay turned on! Any ideas?

Hi.

I have been following and reading this tread to the end of the world, and i have actually gotten closer to my goal by getting tips from all ya out there, but there seems to be some last issues regarding this.

@Nintendoparts - you said you got it to work after setting Categories Separator to -, is this in layout settings? like in the two options listed

Categories Separator between links Status
Categories Separator between the Category Name and Sub Categories - OR just one of them? I did not get any closer to the solution by doing it like you have.

My problem is that my links do NOT redirect at all, i have the lousy link like you did - http://www.i-spy.no/overvaking-spion...lsessensor-p-7

http://www.i-spy.no/overvaking-spion...onpenn-8gb-p-8

After cleaning my cache the link above looks like this:

http://www.i-spy.no/overvaking/spion.../spionpenn-8gb - Very nice, but still NO redirect

And so on. Also i we have special characters here in Norway like ÆØÅ, but to my understanding this should not be any problem. When i try to just go to a category to see if it redirects by a clean link it does not.

After cleaning cache:

http://www.i-spy.no/overvaking

but still no redirection.

Any body knows what the issue here is?

It is kinda frustrating cause all problems started with the module manager installation, and i feel in so close now.

I use the latest in zen and module and SSU.
