Hi,

Don't worry, of course I know you weren't trying to mislead anyone! :)

FYI It isn't the host that determines the outcome, but the SSL settings.. I'm guessing your SSL certificate uses www. whereas Karen's doesn't have www. as part of the SSL domain. This means SSL links always dropped the www., which then was causing a redirect to www., breaking all forms in the admin.

All the best..

Learn something new everyday. Thanks for sharing Conor. Karen I agree with Coner I check you site out and everything seems to be working in IE8 also.

Hi,

I sincerely appreciate you two anyway,...

encountering so many issues now....................:(

Just playing with this mod and i'm curious to make it work on my site that is in a gorilla folder like the following > www/gorillagear.ca/gorilla

i have to create an .htaccess file ?

Hi.

I was wondering, when will the auto generation of the URLs be released? We have too many products, that going through them one by one is not a viable solution.

Please advice.

Thanks

Hi,

Sorry Karen but that's just not right. It works fine without having to use compatibility view here in IE8. It also works fine in IE6 as I said. For example, this page is perfect, identical in IE and Firefox:

http://www.happyworkshopus.com/art-supplies/crayons/butter-lion-12-colors-nontoxic-crayons-blop12

I'm afraid I can't spend any more time on this.

I hope you find the problem, but it's nothing to do with URI Mapping. If it works in Firefox it should show in IE.

If you are still having trouble please don't post here but start a new thread, hopefully someone will be able to help you.

All the best..

Hi Ceon,

I've noticed that the function of ' add to cart ' is not working which becomes ' Your Shopping Cart Is Empty ' after installing CEON URL Mapping.

I've found there is another person has the similar issue but you suggested him to post in this thread so I'm doing it ...

May you please tell me what to do ? Thank you...

Hi,

sung2010:

I've noticed that the function of ' add to cart ' is not working which becomes ' Your Shopping Cart Is Empty

Your includes/configure.php file has

http://happyworkshopus.com

in it while your site redirects all

http://happyworkshopus.com

to

http://www.happyworkshopus.com

You need to either edit includes/configure.php to use

http://www.happyworkshopus.com (but NOT for the SSL version)

or you have to comment out the first rewrite rule in your .htaccess file.

All the best..

yeah i never did the whole redirect thing before and tried to follow everything and i still get 404 error on my pages that i attempted to map.

RewriteEngine On

ONLY rewrite URIs beginning with /home/www/gorillagear.ca/gorilla/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/home/www/gorillagear.ca/gorilla/ [NC]

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} !^/home/www/gorillagear.ca/gorilla/benji [NC]

Don't rewrite editors directory

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/home/www/gorillagear.ca/gorilla/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 .* /home/www/gorillagear.ca/gorilla/index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

this is my 4th time trying to figure out how to have it work
i already used the path /gorilla/ but that didn't work so i kept epanding that path

Hi,

MB1:

"Expanding the path" is completely wrong, rewrite conditions match the URI, the underlying filesystem is completely irrelevant, it is **never **compared against.

Dump the htaccess file you have created and start again, following the instructions closely.

Make sure you put the new .htaccess file in the "gorilla" folder of your site, not inside the root directory. Make sure any .htaccess file in the root directory doesn't clash.

If you're still having trouble then I'd advise paying someone to help you troubleshoot your server!

Hope that helps!

All the best...

ok i was confused which this "stores installed in a folder other than the root of the site the folder" for example my configure.php file pints to this location folder for the store /gorilla/ which is where test.gorillagear.ca is pointing to that folder. so i naturally followed the steps in step 2 of the documents configuration. as i must of misunderstood something.

everything is working now i just followed the

right now the site is running at test.gorillagear.ca

when i go live to the regular URL how should i point all the old url to the new url so i don't loose out in google with certain

Yes, what you seem to have misunderstood is that your site isn't in a folder other than the root, it is in the root of test.gorillagear.ca. test.gorillagear.ca is a completely different address/site from www.gorillagear.ca

Glad you have got things sorted.

MB1:

I don't understand your question. Do you mean when "test.gorillagear.ca" becomes "www.gorillagear.ca"? If so you'd need some sort of rewrite rule to rewrite test.gorillagear.ca to www.gorillagear.ca

If that is the case please start a new thread to ask for advice on that, it is nothing to do with the URI Mapping module and therefore it would be inappropriate to post the question here.

All the best...

Conor cannot answer this question here on this support forum as the rules of this forum prohibit the support or discussion of paid modules on the part of the module creator. The particular module you speak of will be a commercial module, and if you want more information on it, you will need to contact Conor via e-mail. (use the contact form on the Ceon website)

Hi.

I was wondering, when will the auto generation of the URLs be released? We have too many products, that going through them one by one is not a viable solution.

Module is installed and accessible through the admin section. Added a URI manually to one of the EZ-Pages (about us page, id 1) and it broke the link. I can't even access it using the Zen-Cart dynamic URL when the URI is in place. I have to remove the URI before it shows up again. It gives me a 404 error so it's not a bad request or anything.

Ideas? I feel that I am missing something...

Information:

Zen Cart 1.3.8a
Database Patch Level: 1.3.8
PHP Version 5.2.9-2
Ceon URI Mapping Version: 3.2.4

Any help is much appreciated!

Hi, Conor, I use Easy Populate to generate thousand of my products one time, if I use Ceon URI Mapping, does it means I have to update every products one by one? or do you have any ways to solve this problem when using Easy Populate mod?

thanks for your kindness... i like your mod very much!

I have the same question, Do I need to manually update every product after uploaded by EP?

Thanks!

Edit: oh, I see. need paid mod for this.

Hi,

jgeesaman:

If you have installed a htaccess file but have got the rewrite rule wrong in it you will get a 404 rather than a bad request error. Check over your rewrite rule, the problem is somewhere in it.

Also, update to 3.6.3, you are using an old version.

All the best..

I am using Zen Cart 1.3.9d
The only addons I have installed are Google Analytics and a Shopping Cart with Checkout button mod.

I have uploaded all of the CEON Uri files, with the exception of:

admin\includes\functions\extra functions\ceon_uri_mapping.php
(causes white screen in admin)

admin\categories.php
(causes blank page when accessing edit mode in a category)

What would cause this one file to break admin?

Thanks,

Josh

Hi Josh,

jsmith1611:

I have uploaded all of the CEON Uri files, with the exception of:

You can't upload just selected parts of a module and expect the module to work!!

jsmith1611:

admin\includes\functions\extra functions\ceon_uri_mapping.php
(causes white screen in admin)

This means that you have set the path to your admin folder incorrectly in admin/includes/configure.php

Fix your configure file and upload the file you chose not to upload and everything should work fine.

Hope that helps and that you like the software!

All the best..

Hi

I am just looking at this mod and have a question please.

My primary interest in for upgrading ZenCart. I find it a pain, as my site is currently in the root of my domain and not a sub folder e.g. /shop.

I would like to put it in a sub folder for ease of upgrade, but my site IS zencart, so it's not like I can just change a link from my index page or anything. What I want to do is to keep my URL for people and Search engines as https://www.MyDomin.com/ but the real location to be https://www.MyDomin.com/shop/index.php

Is this possible with this mod?

If I can do that, then I can work on my zen upgrade in a new folder e.g. /beta then when it is working and I want the upgraded site to be live, I just re-name /beta to /shop and change the 2 configure.php files.

Thanks

Paul

Someone else from Belfast on Zen Cart.. almost never thought I'd see the day! :)

That's a fine way to run a store, I'd keep it easy and keep things as they are.

No, if you move the store into /shop, then the address of the store will be mydomain.com/shop.

Just set up a subdomain, e.g. beta.mydomain.com, and use it instead of a "test" folder, it's the professional way to do things.

When you're ready for beta.mydomain.com to become the site at mydomain.com you can either copy the files across or simply adjust the paths to the two sites, changing them over with each other.. easy!

Hope that helps!

All the best..
