CJJUNE:

Hi

I am using Ultimate SEO URL 2.103 and error message shown in the apache log is:-

[Sun Jun 24 17:18:14 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Filename is not valid: d:/easyphp1-8/www/zen-cart-v1.3.7-full-fileset-12302006/piggy-guest-book-p-
234:2bfedfbc8c496a2b3f98e69e988d177e.html

So anyone has any idea how to remove the random numbers and letters after the colon(:) sign?:frusty:

Somehow SEO URL cant interpret it into a valid file name.

Please help me. Thank you

Please help. I am on ZC 1.3.7. I know this seem easy to some but I am no programmer here.

yea you need the beta version.

What hosts are you guys using???

I am trying to find a great uptime and speed server that actually works with the SEO url's mod

I just bought a month with camelot-hosting and the seo url's will not work.

so if you have a good server can you let me know about it :(

I got seo url's working with host-99 but their servers are slow as from australia

ZEN 1.3.7

SEO URLs

SEO URLs is stripping the hyphens from my products name, when generating the URL ?

For example:

Blue-Hat becomes: www.store.com/bluehat.html

I wish it to remain: www. store.com/blue-hat.html

I have “Remove all non-alphanumeric characters” set to FALSE

I have even tried forcing it not to do this by entering a rule in “Enter special character conversions” (‘-‘=>’- ‘) - but does not help

Any ideas?

Thanks, GARRY:smile:

Guys, there a few things I am very confused about and I don't consider myself a lame end-user, in fact, I am pretty technically savvy. Maybe you could help me clarify these things.

1. It seems to be absolutely impossible for a new user to find the latest code without spending hours reading this thread and figuring out which bug fixes are THE latest. For instance, Dreamscape's Web site claims to have the latest code for 3.0.0 beta 1, and it is dated 06/22/2007. On March 29th Kelvyn uploaded a ZIP file with bug fixes for 3.0.0 beta 1. Some people talk about 3.0.1 and even 3.0.2 but I am yet to find files for those.

2. I understand that Dreamscape doesn't have any intentions on maintaining / supporting / developing this contribution, so maybe somebody should step-up and at least organize the download links and make it clear where the contribution should be downloaded from. There are a lot of knowledgeable people on this forum / thread but for some reason they prefer to answer tons of similar emails with "this has been discussed before, search the thread". About 50% of messages on this thread are the same people answering the same questions or just giving people links to previous messages where their questions were answered. Why couldn't we just use wiki and possibly answer a lot of questions there. With the first one of them being - "Where can I find the latest code for this contribution?" :) If I ever get all my issues resolved and this contribution working on my site I will update wiki myself.

And finally...
3. Was anyone successful with running ZC 1.3.7 along with this contribution (at this point I do not even care which version) on GoDaddy? I have a ZC 1.3.6 site hosted on GoDaddy with ver. 2.1 of this contribution running without any problems. I am having problems with https://www.compreactor.com, it is running on ZC 1.3.7 and I tried both versions of the contributions without any luck. Right now it has 3.0.0 beta installed. Any product / category link (or other links) I click I get error 404 - file not found. I tried quite a few different .htaccess files, it didn't really make much of a difference which one I was using. I know .htaccess files work with my hosting because 1.) I have another site using this contribution. and 2.) I created a dummy HTML page and configured .htaccess to rewrite any product page to that and it worked.

I am not too far into configuring this site (as you can see), so if nobody has a clue on what the problem is I will try to install 1.3.6 with Ultimate SEO 2.1 and then upgrading ZC to 1.3.7. I would like to avoid it though, if possible.

Any help would be appreciated.

View this post and download the beta and check out the official SEO URL Bug tracker.

You need to be on the beta - or at least, that's how I got my stores working.

But, obviously, TEST ON A TEST SITE FIRST! And if you can't, back everything (including databases) up, twice for good measure, then do it at 3am!

Also, that file name looks REALLY weird - something seriously wrong there.

Does the shop work OK when SEO is off?

Hi Kelvyn,

Yes it does work OK when SEO is off. When SEO is on, only the product that has attribute options are affected.

Yea SEO URL Bug tracker only fix this bug in the 3.0.0beta but not the version I am using right now.

Thanks.

conversion deleting the "-"

The Ultimate URL is deleting dash that have in the title as part of a part number.
How can we tel the URL not to remove the dashes?

Thanks
AddVat :wacko:

Added the code

            if ($page == 'create_account') {
            return false;
            }
```to around line 104 of includes/classes/seo/seo.url_plugins.php and the account creation page works again, woo! :clap:

I really don't know *why* it's working, since it's still rewriting the URL, but I'm not going to question too much; just happy it's working. :wink:

Operating system Linux
Kernel version 2.6.17.11-grsechg
Machine Type i686
Apache version 1.3.37 (Unix)
PERL version 5.8.7
PHP version 4.4.4
MySQL version 4.1.21-standard
cPanel 10.9.0-RELEASE 9808
ZenCart 1.3.7

I followed 2 paths of instructs and downloads below noted beta and fixes:

1. File Type: zip SEO_fixes_for_3.0.0.b1.zip (10.4 KB, 192 views)"

2. View this post and download the beta and check out the official SEO URL Bug tracker.

I attempted 2 installs on Zen 1.3.7 (one install with Zen at root domain and the other at a sub level. Both installs give me this same below noted error in the admin panel. However, the ZenCart is still functioning:

Fatal error: Class coreadvancedsearchresultseourlplugin: Cannot inherit from undefined class coreadvancedsearchseourlplugin in /home/jonathon/public_html/includes/classes/seo/seo.url_plugins/core/advanced_search_result.php on line 14"

The admin panel shows these settings but it will not allow me to change anything like the index.php:

Seo Urls Status Off
301 Redirection Status On Info
Page Base index.php Info

The page base that should be prepended to urls using Mod Rewrite, I cannot set to a blank value.

I am very stuck, please help with any thoughts. Regards, lost-in-rat-race

Its too bad that Chris didnt follow up on this post,
SEO Urls do work just fine, there was an issue with a few files needing to be re-uploaded from a patch,

its working just peachy now.

yea the guys (you I gather) from camelot-hosting said I didnt upload something.

the guys from camelot-hosting got mine working just fine :) and the guy who posted about the create an account problem fixed my problem of people not being able to create a account.

so now seo url's are working great on camelot's hosting :P they have great speeds over there. I can max out on downloading from the server.

kelvyn:

I totally agree - I think I might set up a dedicated Google group, like the one for Google Checkout, and make a faq and downloads etc, and then see if I can persuade the mods to put a link at the top and bottom of this thread, then close it.

Yeah, I don't know what's up with him. Hope he's alright - he was here as recently as 22nd June. We all paid for the mod to be updated, he didn't nothing, then did a spurt of really excellent work, then stopped suddenly. Explanations would be nice!

Kelvyn,

I believe that Dreamscape is having some personal health problem which is why he has abandoned this mod. I relunctantly removed it from our server because there was no indication this mod will be supported in the future. With ZC scheduled v1.4 and v1.5 which will include some serious modifications to core files, I wasn't sure if installing this mod will limit future upgrades.

I like your idea of having a separate google group but it would help tremendously if there is a developer that can take over this mod.

is anyone else willing to take over from where he left off?

I wouldnt mind donating to see more progress on this mod.

Hi,
I understand completly, I am having the excact same issues also hosted on godaddy.
Did you resolve this 404 error? Or did you have to install 1.3.6 to get this working?

On another point I too would be willing to make a donation to keep this mod alive.

Thanks.

It sounds to me like you should be technically savvy enoug to start what you've described in your previous post. I guarantee you that others will contribute if you're willing to lead it.

If someone has a copy of the actual latest version with bugfixes, can they please upload it?

I can spare some space on my server to host it. I'd just like to find it personally.

This is the latest version of the "Seo Urls for Zen Cart" 3.0.0 beta 1 with Kelvyn patches included.

http://www.whitecurve.com/seo_urls_current(patched).zip

I've not had time to do anything other than give it a quick install and it seemed to work for me. Though i didn't have time to give it an exhaustive test and your mileage may vary. It goes without saying that I take no responsibility for any use or abuse of this and as always you should do a full backup before installing.

Hope this helps :)

PS ) Does someone know what plans there are for SEO code being included into version 1.4???

You're a good man, Charlie Brown.

Thank you -

I was getting quite frustrated until I found your post...
