Simple SEO URLs for ZC 1.5.x [Support Thread]

Hi, we installed simple seo url, previously we had Magic SEO URL, but when you do the query on google the old url created by MAgic are not redirected to the newly created simple seo url, is there some rule .htaccess to insert? Thank you

Hi,

I am using simple-seo-ur_v1.5.2 on Zen Cart V1.5.4 and everything works fine except for the Manufacturers URLs are not converted to use the Manufacturers Title. I used to use Ultimate SEO URLs but switched to Simple SEO URLs during my recent Zen Cart upgrade.

For example: Shop by colour (top right sidebox) on this site the URLs used to be like http://www.rugscentre.co.uk/beige-rugs-m-10.html but now they are like http://www.rugscentre.co.uk/index/manufacturers_id/10

Is it possible to do this? (But without the -m-10.html, so it would just be beige-rugs)

:-)

I have this same problem - I can't seem to find a sway to convert manufacturers URL into a custom SEO friendly URL - does anyone know if this plugin makes it possible?

This plugin does not. There is only one uri rewriter that supports truly customizable URIS, all the others follow some sort of rule based use. (ie. Use product name and category, but change either and the previous uri is "lost").

So, no, can't use this uri rewriter to customize urls to a specific url, only one created through a process of database information.

Thanks for your reply. I can access the db via phpMyAdmin - could you offer guidance about doing this: "only one created through a process of database information". Or, what is the "one uri rewriter that supports truly customizable URIS" ?

CEON URI Mapping (SEO)

There are also ways to transition from using another uri rewriter to that one without losing the ability of the old link going to the new link.

Same problem here. SSU seems to work for everything except the Manufacturers URLs.

1. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

2. Not sure if its related, but the Alias Functions > Manage Aliases > "Add New Alias" button does nothing when clicked.

Anyone have these same problems?

Good morning,
I'm testing the plug in, I have the site in 5 languages, in Italian and English it works, but in the other languages it says page not found.
need to put some rules in the htaccess? THANK YOU
