If you go to http://www.clevershoppers.com/born-to-worship-christian-junior-t-shirt-by-kerusso-p-997.html and add an item to your shopping cart you will see the url problem in the shopping cart because the above product contains an attribute.

Even though the URL is wrong, does it still process the cart properly or does that get messed up too?

can somebody help me .. I cant find the URL for the Beta 3 download, I have looked everywhere in this thread

Do you have the code change that needs to be applied?

Everything works just fine from a customer perspective but it doesn't work from a search engine perspective. SE indexes the wrong url for that given product with attributes.

Hi Isaacola

Any news or update abuts the link i post yesterday?

Please let me know if I should get it?

Also a quick Question, If I use those link friendly mod, what happen to my links already all over the search engine? Am I going to get error pages? am i going to loose ranking or anything by installing this program?

Thank you

The SEO url mod that you posted the link for is good and I will have no problem purchasing it except that it doesn't meet my requirement. That version only supports 3 levels of categories and it doesn't appears to support https url of the same domain which technically it's not a big deal just something to be aware of.

They are going to release a version in 01/2008 that supports unlimited category level so I personally will take a look then.

As far as your old indexed pages, if they are standard Zen Cart urls you will not lose anything as long as the new mod gives a 301 redirect, the ranking will be passed to the new seo urls. If you have used seo url mod in the past then you need to redirect those url back to Zen Cart original in other to retain the benefit of those links.

Hi there. I have installed seo.urls (the latest version on the downloads page) and am running zen cart 1.3.7.

Everything seems to run fine. But before i installed it i read through these pages and pages on the forum about seo.urls about various problems, that i can't seem to see.

Am i correct to assume that all the following bugs have been fixed?

1. 404 error page (seems to work for me?)

2. 301 redirect from my old indexed pages to my new seo url pages... seems to work, they redirect but im not sure if its a 301.

3. Paypal ipn seems to be there.

Is there any bugs or mods i need to know about that are current, its a lot of pages to search through!

Thanks in advance

Phil

Hi Isaacola

Thank you for the reply

I will go ahead an purchase it, i never used any url mods before, and yes i do have https but only for check out , so i assume it is not a big deal

Thank you again

Hi there i have a bug i have found with seo url.

If i refresh my browser and view my site for the first time, when i click on a product i get the product url with

?zenid=a7f5833dfb32595db6c190ce78f0866d

added to the end.

then if i click the product url i get the same (obviously) product page.

Meaning i have duplicate urls and google will penalize my site...

One url that is the product url and one with that stuff on the end...

Any ideas??

Phil

Extra edit: I have just tested and its when i remove my store's cookie i get these duplicate urls.

bump anyone?

coud anyone tell me if hey have this issue: a product type music, when displayed in product music info display, is switched back to product general (we lose the display of the artist, record company, etc... )

Thanks!

Even though I paid a good amount of donation for this contribution, I am only interested in the best - I have had heaps of problems with this url rewrite.

I have now installed the following ultimate seo url's, and it has worked out of the box - no issues at all!!!!

Yes, it is based on the chemo work, but ultimately - for me at least, it actually works.

I was using that one too, but I needed the music products to rewrite too, and that one does not do it out of the box. I think there were some other issues with that one as well. Even if you added it manually in the config, it still left a dynamic link.

Actually my product music URL rewrites the product as general. I had to edit the product genral template to display my "music genre" info (which I use for something else than music-related information)

I'm wondering if adding a rewrite rule in the htaccess may have the same effect: I added

RewriteRule ^(.)-p-(.).html$ index.php?main_page=product_music_info&products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

I tried reworking the .htaccess and php files, I didn't have any luck, that's why when I tried the beta version of the SEO's and it worked, I was pretty happy.

Actually my problems occurs with the beta 3.0 :-)

BlessIsaacola:

Did anybody find a solution to the product attribute problem?

Products in the shopping cart that contain attributes display an incorrect url in the shopping cart.

The url appears as:
-p-{id}:{attribute_string}

When it should appear as:
{item_name}-p-{id}:{attribute_string}

Dreamscape said he fixed this but he never released the code.

Thanks!

It appears this is the portion of the code creating the problem but I am not sure what to change.

/**
			 * zen cart attributes use illegal url characters
			 */
			if ($this->isAttributeUri($uri) && !preg_match('/https?/', $parsedUri['scheme'])) {
				$parsedUriTmp = $parsedUri;
				$parsedUri = parse_url($parsedUriTmp['scheme']);
				$parsedUri['query'] = preg_replace('/products_id=([0-9]+)/', 
					'products_id=$1:' . $parsedUriTmp['path'], $parsedUri['query']);
			}

			$this->doRedirection($parsedUri['query']);
