Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Conor it has been a while just wanted to say hello and thank you again for a great module. I hope everything is going well with you these days. I will be sending you some Hot chocolate to drink later on for your great support and awesome modules. Keep up the good work my friend.

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

And not only is this SAME information repeated SEVERAL times throughout this support thread (it's the MOST often asked question..) It's in the README file that comes with this module..

I guess I'm just suggesting to all is this: BEFORE you post, BEFORE you ask question.. Search the support thread and read the module docs.. There is a LOT of information ALREADY available..

</rant>

conor:

Hi,

You should put the following in the .htaccess that is in your STORE's directory.. it should be ALONGSIDE index.php:

RewriteEngine On

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} !^/zc_admin [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 [QSA,L]

countrycharm shaking his head in agreement :yes:It just seems like every OTHER post here is about setting up the .htaccess file and Conor ends up posting the EXACT SAME INFORMATION that's in the Ceon URI Mapping README file.. He has posted that SAME data NUMEROUS TIMES in this support thread.. :no: sigh I guess I'm missing why the SAME information in the readme is BETTER when it's posted here (repeatedly!!!)

You know the answer to your own ? :yes: People don't take the time to read the README file or search through the thread. If they did they would know how to create a .htaccess file or why what is causing a 404 error. They read just enough to get by and that when all the problems start to happen because they didn't read the whole README file or search the thread before asking questions. It is much faster to ask the ? again without going through the hassle to find the answer there self.

Please read FAQs in the documentation about excluding particular directories, that may help.

If it doesn't then you should consult someone who knows more about rewrite rules etc.

All the best..

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

I apologize for my spicy posts.. I just get frustrated when I see the SAME questions being asked and the EXACT SAME answers being posted.. I don't mind helping.. Really I don't.. but GOLLY GEE!!!! what happened to meeting folks halfway?? what happened to HELPING YOURSELF, teach a man to fish and all that..

Daggone it... how many "I got a 404 error" posts do we need to see??

Search this thread for "404" for goodness sakes!!!

I'm sorry.. tired.. cranky.. need coffee...:laugh:

To both of you I send a hug for allowing me to rant (or more correctly for allowing me to CONTINUE to rant)..:hug:

I'm off to get iced coffee.. Have a super weekend!!!:smile:

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Hi,

DivaVocals:

In the most recent versions of our software I have been trying to answer as many questions as I can in the documentation and software itself. Some of the new versions of our software now have checks for the most common mistakes made by the person installing the software.

Hopefully I'll get enough time to work on version 4.0.0 and introduce some of this sort of thing into Ceon URI Mapping too.

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Hi Connor,

I've read the documentation,the suggested code allows me to exclude a directory if accessed like this site.com/directory however it doesn't allow me to access a subdomain like directory.site.com, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Hi again,

My host sorted it, not sure how, I've asked them to confirm how they did it and I will post here. They said they modified the htaccess file but I can't find any differences. There is a htaccess file in the subdomain with one rule:

RewriteEngine Off

perhaps that's how it is done, I'll confirm when I get more info.

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Hi,

mjpwall:

RewriteEngine Off

That's an interesting way for their server to work.

Subdomains and main domains shouldn't share the same directory structure, which is why many don't need to do what yours had to.

If it works, it works!

Enjoy the new URIs!

All the best..

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Hi

I've had this mod installed and working for a while now, but I never did do anything with the define pages, all products pages or new products pages.

I've been reading the directions and at step 9 I want to do the first method.

For my first attempt I am trying to get the All Products page mapped.

In phpmyadmin > zen_ceon_uri_mappings

I used the existing rows as my example. I added a new row for products_all, but the store front url is still showing as index.php?main_page=products_all

I attached a screenshot of my settings. Am I missing something obvious?

Thank you

edit:

the screenshot is rather small. These are the settings

uri - /all-products

language_id - 1

current_uri - 1

main_page - products_all

query_string_parameters - null

associated_db_id - 1

alternate_uri - null

redirection_type_code - 301

date_added - 2011-03-01 00:00:00

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Thanks for a great mod! The instructions a clean and detailed.

Forgive my "Newbness" but I am not seeing where to find the "Modules > URI Mapping Config in the Admin and the database tables will be automatically created"

Nothing new has shown up under "modules' or "configuration".

I have searched the installation instructions, faq, web, this forum, and the 247 pages of this thread and have not found an answer.

Do I need to create the tables manually in my db?

If someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

I am using ZC v1.3.9f

Hi

did you refresh your admin page after installing the mod? Those fields should automatically show up. If you still don't see it admin panel then maybe all the files were not uploaded.

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

I have refreshed it a number of times and even tried using another browser. I am still not seeing the module in the zc admin. :(

I followed the instructions closely. Any clue as to what files would /could be missing?

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

did you upload files from these folders?

files/
modified_core_files/(your version)
template_override_files/(your version)

Did you rename the admin folder to the actual name of your admin folder?
