Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

I have check out the includes/html_ouput.php and compared the two files. All four of the modifications are in the correct place.

The product index template has not been modified either.

Please send me FTP and admin details for your site via this link and I'll take a quick look to see if I can see what is going wrong on your server.

All the best...

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

cotsweb:

I have just installed ceon URI mapping on a new site and have found it excellent, a really nice piece of work, thanks very much.

The automatic URI generation seems to work very well but it seems to always generate /category/product-name is it possible to change something so that it generates /manufacturer/product-name instead?

I have had a search around this forum and in the configuration options for ceon but I can't find anything. I apologise if I am just being stupid and have missed the obvious answer.

Thanks again
Mark

I missed an instant message (popup blocker) from this forum so I don't know if someone tried to reply to my enquiry. If someone has an answer please can you post it in the forum so I don't miss it again.
Sorry to be difficult

It doesn't do that. You'd have to modify the autogeneration function to have it add it.

The file this is in is

admin\includes\functions\extra_functions\ceon_uri_mapping.php

A simple way would be to change line 948 to

return $uri . (substr($uri, -1) != '/' ? '/' : '');
```You'll have to make this change each time you upgrade the module.

All the best..

If you mean that you want to exclude "/wordpress" or something from being rewritten and handled by Zen Cart then you should read the configuration documentation and FAQs that come with the module. Quick repost of the exclusion command:

Don't rewrite cPanel directories

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/cpanel.* [NC]

If you want to rewrite the blog URIs then you should ask someone who knows about wordpress.

All the best...

Thank you Conor for you quickly help, and another question, if I'd prefer to show ".html" at the end of URI, how to? for example,

/about-us
to:
/about-us.html

thanks!

You shouldn't use .html at the end of URIs.. you can read more about why not by searching against "URIs" and "Tim Berners Lee".

You asked to have '/' at the end of URIs for autogenerated URIs.. are you then planning on using a different format for EZ-Pages? That's a strange idea/duality.

You have to manually enter the URIs with .html on the end.

You also will then have to adjust your rewrite rule to allow rewriting of .html extensions.. you can find out more about that by reading the documentation and FAQs.

ALl the best...

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

For Canonical purposes, how would I echo the product URL without any zenid or sort parameters?

Zen Cart adds those parameters. I'm afraid you'd have to modify the way Zen Cart works!

Sorry I don't have better news for you than that.

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Thanks for your reply.

Isn't the product URL that Ceon URI Mapping generates located in the database? Couldn't we just pull the URL from there?

Sorry, I don't know what exactly you are asking. If you are asking can you read a list of URIs from the database then of course you can.. I'm afraid it's not something I can support here though.. please use software like PHPMyAdmin to do what you require!

The URIs in the database won't have session IDs or sorting parameters.

All the best...

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Hi everyone,

At first i'd like to say i love this addon so bad!
And i'm definitely willing to donate.

I've got a few issue though.
I've set up some favicons, but for some reason with Ceon's URI Mapping mod the favicons disappear from category, subcategory and products pages.
How can this be fixed?

Also I can't seem to change the specials, new products, all products pages URL's (index.php?main_page=specials for example)
I'm still a noob with this addon so please bare with me :P

By the way, I have a database containing over 600 products so i was wondering when the URI manager is available.

Yours,

Peter de Leeuw

Hi Peter,

Glad you like the software!

This isn't a problem with the module but with your template.

Once you start using static URIs your favicons must be made relative to the site's root rather than the "local folder".

When in /mycategory it is likely that /mycategory/favicon.ico doesn't exist.

So you should update your link to your favicon.ico file to be /favicon.ico or set a base href on your site which sets relative file paths like this to be relative to the root of your store.

Hope that helps!

All the best..

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

G'day Conor, Thanks for this great mod,it looks like just what I was after and I seem to have installed it without a hitch.
Just one question....how would I go about changing it so that my items Model Name is mapped and displayed, instead of the Product Name ?Is it a Zen-Cart Admin setting? Cheers.

I'm glad you like the software and that it installed easily for you.. unfortunately the bad news is that the module currently only autogenerates URIs for products based on their names. If you want to use model numbers you'll have to manually enter the URIs I'm afraid which isn't so bad but obviously not quite as quick/easy!).

All the best...

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Thanks, I may even add both together for greater effect! You see, my products are plants and they have a "Common" name (Product Name) and a "Botanical Name"(Model Name). To have both together would be ideal as far as Search Engines go, wouldn't it? All the best.

Yes, I do agree actually.. I think that would make it much easier to find those "products". I'd say quite a few people would search for the common name or the botanical name but not necessarily both, so having both in the URI could only help them find your store that bit easier!

All the best...

Unfortunately that simply means you have done something wrong. I'd suggest going through the whole process again and checking your working.

Sorry about the delay in responding. I have followed the process on again however I am getting the same problem.
However when I ran it on http://www.jbconline.eu the issue did not occur. (they are both hosted by the same hosting company)

Any ideas.
