Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

After reading this forums for a few hours, has anyone ever been able to successfully install google checkout with this mod? I use the Fedex mod also for the shipping, is google checkout compatible with Ceon URI Mapping? If it is, is there any documentation on installing google chcckout with this mod. I have tried win merg but I am stuck with what to do with the .htaccess in the admin folder. Can someone point me in the right direction.

There are no issues with Google Checkout working with Ceon URI Mapping as far as I know.

If any exclusions are needed, or if the rewrite rule is blocking URIs that Google Checkout uses, simply read the FAQs in the documentation for Ceon URI Mapping and you should see the methods for either excluding files or preventing particular URIs being rewritten.

Please let us know how you get on. If you needed to do anything to things working with Ceon URI Mapping, please post what you had to do so that others can take the same steps.

All the best..

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Has anyone been able to use this mod and have it play nice with jrox jam affiliate software? The affiliate links append the link to a particular category or product page. With ceon uri mapping these links are redirecting to the home page. Do we have to use the standard Zen links when using jam?

Zen Cart doesn't even know that Ceon URI Mapping is installed on a site. Once a URI is mapped, the environment appears to Zen Cart as if a dynamic link as been used.

So there's no point changing to dynamic links.. the problem is the way this affiliate link software is creating the links.. it sounds like it is probably forgetting to add the "?".

I'm afraid that without knowing more I couldn't say anything else.

All the best..

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

hi conor!

The jam links look like this:

http://www.ourdomain.com/affiliates/jrox.php?id=1234&jxURL=http://ourdomain.com/books/book-title

This link returns user to the site home page.

.htaccess tweak needed?

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Already have this in .htaccess

Don't rewrite affliates directory

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

I would say so. I'm afraid I'm not sure what exactly is going wrong and what you should change it to.

Get in contact with FTP and admin details for your site and I can carry out a test.

Sorry, I wasn't paying attention to what you'd actually posted because of a lack of time and because I was put off by the fact that this silly link doesn't use URL encoding.

The problem you are probably having is that you are using a custom script which may well be loading the Zen Cart system.. please follow the instructions in the docs relating to this: "Ensuring 100% Compatibility with Third Party Zen Cart Modules - Specifying Individual Files to be Excluded from URI Mapping".

Hope that helps!

All the best..

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Hi. I've been using this module on my test site ok.. But there is an issue I can't figure out. When I log in as a customer I get a 404 page not found. When I switch off URI mapping in Admin it works fine. So it must be an issue with the mapping.

I am running zen cart v1.3.9d in a subdirectory on an Apache webserver.

Other plugins installed are ( I doubt the mess this up!)
Image Handler 2
Fual Slimbox
Froogle feeder

htaccess example as follows -

RewriteEngine On

ONLY rewrite URIs beginning with /testsite2/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/testsite2/ [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} !^/testsite2/myrenamedadmin [NC]

Don't rewrite editors directory

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/testsite2/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]

I'm a designer really, so I'm not completely familiar with this sort of gubbins, so excuse me if this is a really simple problem I've missed. I also noticed a similar 404 error occured when I tested a PayPal Sandbox.

Thanks in advance for any advice on what might be wrong here.

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

Added this to List of Files to be Excluded:

/affiliates/jrox.php, /affiliates/sale.php

but I think my problem was due to mixing the www and non-www domains in the jrox affiliate link url!

http://ourdomain.com/affiliates/...id=1234&jxURL=http://ourdomain.com/books

thanks!

You shouldn't have a test site for a site that is to use URI mappings in a folder.. when you move the files out of that folder it will stop working.

As for the 404, this means you've either put the .htaccess file in the wrong folder or the rewrite rule isn't right. Try reading the instructions again and cross-checking them against what you've done, in case you've made a mistake.

Hope that helps.

All the best..

Ok. Thanks for getting back so fast :smile: I'll read the instructions again hand have yet another fiddle. The .htaccess file is in the testsite2 folder next to index.php, includes etc... testsite2 has one product uploaded. All configure files and htaccess along with the product will have 'testsite2' renamed 'shop.' that was the plan anyway :wacko:

If you're installing a "fresh" version of Ceon URI Mapping then there a re a few changed files needed to 1.3.9e, I'll try and get the new version with those files out shortly, I've very little time at the minute so I can't say when I'll get a chance. As for Advanced Shipper, it is compatible with all Zen Cart versions as it doesn't use any modified core files.

If you've any other questions please ask me directly, I know you have my address! :)

All the best..

Well that all sounds okay (apart from the wasted effort renaming testsite2 to shop, I'd highly recommend you put test sites in a subdomain in future).. if it still isn't working please send me FTP and admin details and I'll have a look.

All the best...

Re: Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

I'm having issues with Ceon Uri Mapping interfering with my other add-in that allows a user to upload an additional files for the products.
by aetas Created by Mariusz Józala ( http://zencart.aetas.pl ), does anybody have any advice how both add-ins can live and play with each other nicely?

:wacko:
