So do i need qualifications to make a statement that this mod does indeed add to the end of every page a query ??? (if i turn the seo mod off this is what i get :-
index.php?stock_filter=in_stock&main_page=index
index.php?stock_filter=all&main_page=index
and thats just on the page
That's fine, but then you may as well also come on here and declare that the sky is blue on a nice day. So what? Its supposed to do that. That's entirely normal.
gmrm:
You still have not answered my question, nor have backed up that this mod does actually work or not have you. Instead you seem to be more bothered about me.
You haven't asked a question yet. An yes, the mod does work... for the software it was designed for. If you wish to install an old fresh copy of Zen, then it will work just fine.
gmrm:
If you are such an expert that you say you are
your words, certainly not mine.
gmrm:
why have you not tested this mod out ??
Huh? I tested it THOROUGHLY. Again, on the system it was designed for. I'm not sure how you aren't getting that point yet.
gmrm:
Instead of putting me down and wasting your time here why not bother to even try it out.
Why should I try it out? I don't need it any more. Plus... as you pointed out... it doesn't work on the current version. I believe you. I never said you were wrong on that point. Well.. OK, I can't completely concede it because it may very well work without SEO mods... but I doubt it. PHP has changed and so has the core since my mod was last updated.
gmrm:
And yes this mod will affect seo purposes in the state its in.Nope.
gmrm:
I do not want to continue this arguementBut its soooOOOOooOO much fun.
gmrm:
as it is pointlessyep
gmrm:
yes you are clearly more experienced than meProbably... but we're all here to learn
gmrm:
and i respect that
(I sense a "but" coming on)> gmrm:
butBingo!
gmrm:
i am only pointing out that the mod in its current state does not work.No, that's not at all what you pointed out... which is why I took such exception to your statements. The fact that it does or doesn't work with the current version of Zen is really inconsequential. One should EXPECT it not to work after so many version changes. But you didn't say that... you said it would "damage" or "ruin" sites if installed. And that simply is not the case. Chalk it up to poor wording? Fine. Done. I accept that.
gmrm:
p.s if you are really bothered pm me and i will pay for your services as i think this could be one of the better mods for zen cart if people could see the benefits. This could benefit every zen cart owner in a really good way if it worked right.Thanks for the offer, but no. I agree it would be useful. And it would be nice if someone that had the time and inclination would run with it (or start from scratch) and update it for the current version. Even better, I've always believed it to be a mod worthy of being rolled into the core code so that its just available right out of the box. But suggestions like those pretty well fall of deaf ears so I suggest neither of us hold our breath on that one.
Despite the fact - or more accurately BECAUSE of the fact - that I have an obsessive-compulsive REQUIREMENT to answer posts no matter how much of a waste of time it is... I simply don't have the time to look at my old code and update it. I'm not familiar with the latest version of Zen. I've been waiting what seems like years for 1.4 or 2.0 or whatever to come out... but until then I've moved on to more productive adventures. If I stopped with this discussion alone I may have the time... but I still lack the desire.
It was never offered with any type of warranty, expressed nor implied. I have no obligation to maintain it. I feel an obligation to defend it when unfairly attacked, but that's my deal.
ps. OK, for $2k I'd do it ;)
