For those who can not get this mod to work well or just want to try something else, I have just released a new SEO mod which aims to be as simple as possible:
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpost.php?p=494769&postcount=11

I'm having an install problem with ultimate seo urls 2.0.6. The instruction for modifying the .htaccess is:

Edit or create the file **.htaccess** in your Zen Cart catalog folder and add the following (replace /shop/ with the relative web path of your catalog):

Now, my shops name is canemasters.com I am temporarily setting up a new shop at canemasters.net Do I simply change this to /canemasters/ or /canemasters.net/ or does it have to do with where the site lies on my ftp server, which is /canemastersnet/ ???

Thank you.

THe /shop/ is relative to the domain name, so if you have a store which is https://www.example.com/shop/ it should be /shop/. If your store is just https://www.testing.com, then it should be /.

Absolute

The exact problem I'm having is, when I click on anything, a category, a ezpage, anything, I get this error message.

Not Found

The requested URL /canemasters/index.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/1.3.37 Server at https://www.canemasters.net Port 80

Now, this mod is working on my canemasters.com webweb site. If you hover your mouse over the category "canes" on canemasters.com, it points to:

http://www.canemasters.com/index.php/canes-c-1/

If you hover you mouse over the category "canes" on canemasters.net, it points to:

http://www.canemasters.net/canes-c-1.html

Somehow, the index.php is being taken out. How do I fix this, or is that even the problem??? :blink:

Not a problem, but it's inconsistent and can effect the search engine ranking.

That's exactly what's wrong. Someway, somehow, the index.php is being taken out of all of my links.

If you visit, http://www.canemasters.net/index.php/canes-c-1.html
it works!

How do I change this so index.php is included?

Okay, I "somewhat" got this to work by making the line in my htaccess file say

#RewriteBase /

But I REALLY need to make the index.php be included in the url so I dont have to go modify every single link in my flash header, and everywhere else I have a link.

How do I go about this? I'm not sure if it's in my htaccess file, but here is a copy of what it currently reads"

Thank you so much!

The whole idea of this module is that it REMOVES the index.php and makes all links SEO! Why do you now want to put the index.php back in?????

Absolute

Try adding something like

RewriteRule ^index\.php/(.*)/ index\.php?main_page={QUERY_STRING} [L]

to your htaccess file below # From Ultimate SEO URLs

This hasn't been tested.

Absolute

Because, I'd have to redo every single link in my site, my flash header that uses the index.php.

Tried this, didn't work for me.  I may just end up having to redo my header and hunt down all of my invalid url's and changing them.  DOH!!!  :censored:

Okay, nevermind about the whole index.php addon. It's not going to be as hard as I though to change all of this. I've just gotta purchase adobe flash to modify this header so it all works. Thanks for the help!

Cane Master - don't buy a full copy of flash straight away. Visit the adobe site, and you may be able to use their trial for 30 days until you decide this is definately the software you want to buy. The trial version will still let you modify and save teh files.

Secondly, when you re-create the links, create them as proper Zen links, so index.php?main_page=xxxx links. Search engines won't take any notice of teh flash links anyway, and regards of which SEO module you install, these links will always work.

Hi everyone,

I've been using this mod on my site and everything is fine apart from one thing. If you visit http://www.handcrafteduk.com/40cmpainteddjembedrum-p-174.html you'll see that my MP3 clip has .html after it. When I turn off the mod it is fine.

I know i'm using an older version but i tried installing the new one. When this was done, I found the checkout wasn't displaying the https even though secure checkout is enabled. That's why I thought I'd stick with the version I have!

So, could someone PLEASE tell me how to get rid of that .html at the end of the link? I'd really appreciate it.

FYI, I have included the code from includes/function/html_output.php

@HandcraftedUK - that link seems to be working perfectly. Does this mean that you have fixed the problem, or altered the coding?

@saminshah - what have you done so far? Have you followed the Readme and the Install files? There is also a link included in the readme to the developer's site, where full install instructions are shown.

If you can be a bit more specific as to which bit you are struggling with, someone can give you a pointer. A general HELP is a little vague unfortunately.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply. I decided to install the 2.106 version which fixed the problem and even got the secure checkout working. BUT, i have now run into another problem!

When looking at products everything is fine UNLESS they have attributes attached to them. In that case, the screen goes blank. For example, on this page:

http://www.handcrafteduk.com/ethnicgiftstibetansingingbowls-c-3_51.html

Click on the singing bowl book and everything is okay. But, click on any of the singing bowls and it won't work. It's definitely something to do with attributes as products with multiple images are okay.

Any idea what's wrong? Again, I've included the info from my new html_output file
