Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

conor:

So I'm afraid this problem isn't to do with that. I don't know what's wrong on your site, you must have installed something wrongly?
ceon

hmmm. OK. I was pretty particular when I was doing the install knowing that if I missed anything then i'd need to redo it all again (which I like to try and avoid if possible). Everything about it seems to be working from an admin point of view (i.e. it's in the menu, the Ceon option shows up at all expected levels, the manual and auto options both work and so on.)

When you say that it works fine with JSweb, is that when using the .htaccess content pulled directly from the configuration page?

I'll take a look at the install tonight / tomorrow and see what's what with it.

cheers

Hi,

That's what we all aim for of course! :) Unfortunately it appears this didn't happen for you this time round.

Yes.

I'd imagine you'll find a mistake you made in the installation.

All the best...

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Hi,

This is because Ceon URI Mapping sees index.php, index.php?main_page=index and / all as the same (which is a good thing ;) ).

You basically want to temporarily have '/' as '/index.html' but '/' is currently assigned to '/index.php'.

You should be able to have /index.html take control of / by adding the following to the rewrite rule:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/$

Hi :-)

Thanks for your always helpful and patient replies. I'll give that a try.

Cool, no worries. I'll go through it all tomorrow and see where I get.

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

I have this mod installed on one site and it works great.

I recently tried to install it on http://www.buyorpheklights.com and I don't think its working.

I uploaded all of the contents from "files" into the zencart install directory

then I uploaded all the files from the modified_core_files directory 1.3.9d directory. I have 1.3.9h

then I uploaded the ones from the template_override_files and i made sure to change the folder name to the name of the template i was using.

The problem is that when I go back to the zen-cart admin area there is no CEON URI Mapping located under any of the menus. i thought it was under Config -> Ceon but there isn't anything there. Nor is there anything under Modules -> Ceon

Did I do something wrong?

It sounds like you might have uploaded the files for the "admin" folder to the wrong folder.

Make sure you upload them to whatever the admin folder is called on this other site. Then the options for Ceon URI Mapping should appear.

All the best...

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

First off, thank you for a great mod. I have having troubles with getting my standard zen cart pages to work after I have installed this mod.

my website is http://www.dscrossstitchonline.com/

I've been through all the products/catagories/ezpages and generated url's for them and they are working great.

My problem is with pages like productsall, productsnew, specials, privacy notcice, contact us, discount coupons etc. None of these links are working.

I've been throught the docs and this forum thread and see people with similar problems but I couldn't find a solution. I'm guessing it's my .htaccess file and this is its contents

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} !^/monkey2 [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]

and this .htaccess is in with the index.php etc at the root of my shop. My host doesn't use apache, it's h-sphere if that helps.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

I'm glad you like it.

I have NEVER seen that problem before. It must be something to do with your store/server configuration.

Please get in contact via this address with FTP and admin details for your site and I'll take a look.

All the best..

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Hi,

DSCrossStitch:

I've found and fixed the problem on your site.

It turns out that you had SimpleSEO installed and you had removed its rewrite rules, but it was still enabled, so it was "responsible" for the likes of the "index" page etc.

I've disabled SimpleSEO and everything is working perfectly now! :)

Enjoy the new URIs and the rest of your weekend!

All the best..

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Which of these is correct? The first is what it's writing now, and unless Google parses out the & correctly, I don't think this is valid. Or am I worrying for nothing?

<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.mysite.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=126" /> <link rel="canonical" href="http://www.mysite.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=126" />

Neither of those is a Ceon URI Mapping canonical URI.

This is the wrong thread then for that question.

If you had a Ceon URI Mapping canonical URI it would not have index.php in it.

Ah ... found the issue. And what a trivial issue it was! I've some how managed to miss 2 fairly important looking files from the Files > Includes folder. Not even from the core_rewrites, just from the basic files folder.

Working perfectly now, thankfully! It looked like a great plugin, so I'm glad we now have it running and don't have to change.

Thanks for your support. Much appreciated.

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Is there any way to get it to accept the ".html" extension? Currently, when I add this, the link to the product breaks and the cart just goes to the homepage.

I need this to copy a prior SEO URI plugin -- we need the links to products to remain the same.

Many thanks,

PL

How to change the rewrite rule to allow extensions like .html is covered in the FAQs.
