Chemo's Ultimate URL's

Thanks, and sorry Joshua (?). Have I got it right this time?

That is why I could not find the single product redirect in your code. Now to look and ask elsewhere.

Config, layout settins, skip 1 prod categories - now set to false!!!

Thanks.

From what I understand their is a known bug whereby customers will not be able to login after creating an account. Is their any resolution to this issue?

I had this problem and I thought it had to do with this module. I turned off recreate sessions and it fixed it. Blessisacola had the same problem. But its possible that we are two people who use this mod and had the same problem, and erroneously supposed it was caused by this mod. I think its still somewhat up in the air.

What is this suppose to actually do for your site. I have had this install for about a month now and i see not difference in my site rating. The only thing i see this doing is change the zend extion into words. Other than that it to me it has not improved any thing... so is it better to have word urls or just stay with the normal zen url?

Words in the url's are only one part of SEO. You have to get all the other parts right in order to do well on the search engines. I personally am a master at SEO for vBulletin, and am working my way through issues specific for zencart.

Definition of SEO

What I call the Three Secret Steps

1. Search phrase selection
2. header tags
3. content

Pick the search phrases that you stand a chance at ranking for and that are receiving traffic

Get the title and meta description right

Get an h1 and intro paragraph including the search phrases for each page.

See my site for more details on Zencart SEO work in progress

I agree 100%. There is no silver bullet with SEO. Just many small pieces of the puzzle . . . . But keywords in the url ARE used by many, including the big sites, see ebay for example

Come on, guys. No one else out there uses this mod enough to contribute $25? We are so close to our goal. :)

Yeah! It's sad that the goal is not reached yet. I wish money people will talk with the their money as well :)

Hi Squashrick

Regarding the post >> http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?p=246334&highlight=ssl#post246334

Im having a problem with Ultimate SEO URLs when I try to go into a secure pages. And yes, Im using shared ssl.

You've mentioned in the post "So you need to add the line: RewriteBase /~mywebsite/shop/ to the .htaccess file."

Can you please explain a little bit more how to do this code line. I would really appreciate your help. At the moment I have to turn off the SEO url as it doesn't work for SSL pages.

Hello,

I have installed the mod correctly, I have double checked. The home page displays and when I hover over any links the mod appears to be working with product or category name .html as the links. When I click on any of the links I get a file not found error and when I try to access /admin all I get is a blank white screen. Any suggestions??

thank you,

adam

How about the htaccess file? Did you modify the rewrite base appropriately?

Anyways though, my problem is this. After downloading Version 2.100 released and following the instructions at http://www.dream-scape.com/pub/zenca...s/install.html, i keep getting the following when opening my site: 1054 Unknown column 'c.parent_id' in 'on clause'. It does this when i upload the updated application_top.php and the html_ouput.php files. If i change these back to the original files, my site reappears with the dynamic links. If anyone can help me with this issue, it would be greatly apprectiated. If you need more info, will be glad to post it.

I had the same problem. I found a workaround by configuring the SEO URLs in the admin page: Configuration / SEO URLs:
Add category parent to beginning of URLs -> set to false.

It seems like a bug, though.

Hey guys, many of these problems can be solved with the new version. We are only $50 away . . .

I am getting this error:

Warning: main(includes/reset_seo_cache.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/7/d165971201/htdocs/store/admin/product.php on line 18

Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening 'includes/reset_seo_cache.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /homepages/7/d165971201/htdocs/store/admin/product.php on line 18

The error appears sometimes at the top of a page. (when viewing products attributes, I click preview, then click back; the error is at the top)
Sometimes The error IS the page. (when adding a new product, I click preview, then Update; The error is then page that gets displayed.)

The odd thing is, that when I check, whatever I was doing has actually worked. e.g. products are added fine. But this error is VERY annoying, and I would love to find out what is causing it.

I am using Zencart 1.3.6

The error message is pretty straightforward in what the problem is. Here let me highlight the important parts incase you're having trouble reading what it says:

Warning: main(includes/reset_seo_cache.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/7/d165971201/htdocs/store/admin/product.php on line 18

Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening 'includes/reset_seo_cache.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /homepages/7/d165971201/htdocs/store/admin/product.php on line 18

I'm afraid I'm not much with PHP. Does this mean that product.php references reset_seo_cache.php, but the file does not exist? What about > (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php')

Should I try reinstalling the SEO mod?
or is this a permissions issue?

(I'm probably showing my blatant misunderstanding of the issue with these questions):lamo:

joshlfisher:

Does this mean that product.php references reset_seo_cache.php, but the file does not exist?
Yes that is exactly what it means. So the problem is that the file does not exist, and it obviously is an SEO file it is looking for, so the solution then must be to .... (I know you can figure it out)

joshlfisher:

or is this a permissions issue?
Probably not. If there were permission problems with the file in question, it is likely that the error would be "Permission denied" instead of "No such file or directory".

(I know you can figure it out)

Awww, Shucks :blush:

BTW, Thanks!

well, here's an interesting thread that you might want to check out.
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=50033
i've been getting a 403 error when trying to get my page analyzed at http://www.websiteoptimization.com/
I wasn't sure what it was but then there was a suggestion that it might be seo urls because one poster replied that he had no problem but he doesn't use seo urls.

just wanted to let you know that this issue was there

i'm not even sure what kind of impact it has on anything but maybe we could track down the cause and research it a little for future optimization...?
