Chemo's Ultimate URL's

Is this true?Dreamscape fixed that one in the 3.0.0 beta1. You can install the beta and obtain necessary patches from the bug tracker, or wait until the integrated release. I'd skip the one in the Downloads section, which (as of this posting date) has the recreate sessions bug.

I'm half asleep, but I'm sure Dreamscape detailed the conditions for recreating the problem -- if not in this thread, then in the bug tracker. You will find a link to the tracker in the documentation that comes with the beta. And you can find a link to the beta in one of Dreamscape's posts in this thread -- 2 or 3 weeks ago, I think. :sleep:

Ah ha, I see. Ok, thank you much for your replies. :smile:

I've got a couple of oddities with 3.0.0-beta1

I've got (for various reasons) several products with the same item name.

If I turn on the SEO URLS then I can never get to a specific item - I can only drill into a list of objects matching the item name (and clicking on them just loops back to the list).

If I have category with a single item in it then I get a time out from Firefox which reports:

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

Anyone else come across this?

I fixed it turning on Core: Default in the URL plugs-ins seemed to fix it

Did that fix both problems? Here's the message I was just about to send, for whatever it's worth:

My 3.0.0-beta1 places the ZC product ID in the URL, e.g. /Clutch-Head-Screwdrivers-p-17688 ... this prevents identically named products from generating identical URLs.

As for single-product categories, Steve, I have no problems there either.

Are you sure your server meets all of the prerequisites for Chemo's? What do your configuration settings look like? Assuming the server requirements are met and configuration settings are right, submit a report on the bug tracker (if you haven't already). That Josh is one fast debugger. :wink2:

Speaking of Dreamscape, I must be one of several folks anxiously awaiting the next Chemo's release. Josh, if you're reading this, do let us know if there's anything you need that we might provide. :thumbsup:

Actually I don't think its working properly at all!

Its giving me urls like:

index.php/product_info?products_id=45

when it is turned on, and

/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=35

When its turned off.

So I turned on a few more of the core modules and it now seems to be working OK.

Not sure why none of the core modules are enabled and of course the PDF for those isn't written yet

In that case, Steve, I would definitely post a complete report on the bug tracker. Even if it turns out to be something other than a bug, it can't hurt.> Steve_A:

When its turned off.

As far as I know I meet the requirements for the modification.

If I try to use mod_rewrite with the .htaccess file I get exactly the same problems.

Oh well...:huh:

Where can I download Dreamscapes latest version of SEO URLs 3.0.1?

Hi,

I've posted this issue in the Admin Profiles Section of the forum, and this issue happens when I install Admin profiles, and then later on trying to use this plugin, it does not appear in the menus. Just wondering if anyone has any methods of working around the issue that allows me to display the SEO menus in admin....

Thanks

Are you using the SEO URLs 3.0.0 beta1, or the one from the Downloads section?> Hemma:

When I saw this yesterday, I was elated -- I thought it meant Josh had published the successor to 3.0.0-beta1. Then I followed the link in Kelvyn's reply and realized I already have the most current release.

Has anyone heard how Dreamscape is faring? I'd gladly offer cash or gourmet chocolates for a timely and bug-free production release -- though I don't know if either would speed completion. :unsure: > ctcentralinfo:

Sounds to me like you need to modify the SEO admin boxes code the way they tell you to in the directions before the box will appear on the menu.

This is one of the more obscure aspects of Admin Profiles--which I love--that you have to keep in mind with every installation of a new feature that has an admin box.

This from the Admin Profiles install:

Step 4: (To view admin pages that are not part of the standard Zen Cart installation)
** This step is only necessary if you have added your own pages to admin or use third party contributions **

A well constructed contribution will either add to or provide a "box" file (located under admin\includes\boxes or admin\includes\boxes\extra_boxes). You will need to manually edit the relevant file, following the existing pattern. A step-by-step guide to this can be found in the file updating_box_files.txt including in this release package.

When additional pages for third party mods are encountered, they will be added to 'admin_files' table and will appear in the third party mods section at the bottom of the Admin Profiles page.

Ok, I'll look into that, and successful or not, i'll report it back here...

Thanks!

Once you have the box modifed properly Admin Profiles will auto scan it and put it in your menu list.

The first time you select it and try to go to any feature page that is required, Admin Profiles will detect the file, probably tell you you don't have access, then add a checkbox in the Admin Profiles permissions management page down at the bottom under 'other'. Once you have been denied, go there, see the new box, give yourself permission to access the page for that feature.

It may take a number of trips as you poke around SEO to find all the pages and get the permission to access them set up.

I'm sure that if you have not done this step of enabling the box that you will find that it solves the issue you are describing.

Let us know...

Hello, I have been trying to get this working on my store for some time now. Would anyone be interested in setting this up for a price for me? I want to make sure that paypal checkout still works etc... someone with experience in doing this! please contact me via pm if interested!

If you need any text editing, proofreading, etc. -- please let me know. I'm dying to get my hands on Beta 2, and I suspect others are also eager to utilize it. :thumbsup: > dreamscape:

Beta 2 should only be a couple days away. Its release is waiting more on me to add a few things to the manual than anything else.
