Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

Hi,
I have installed the module manager and SSEO URL on a local installtion to test it.
If I go to admin>extra>box_ssu I get the following message:

1366 Incorrect integer value: '' for column 'configuration_group_id' at row 1
in:
[INSERT INTO configuration_group VALUES ('', 'Simple SEO URL', 'Set SSU Options', '1', '1');]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

If I go to admin>tools>module manager I click on list all modules and then on update I get again the message:

1366 Incorrect integer value: '' for column 'configuration_group_id' at row 1
in:
[INSERT INTO configuration_group VALUES ('', 'Simple SEO URL', 'Set SSU Options', '1', '1');]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

Under admin>configuration I do not find any command related to SSEO.
I have the italian version of 1,38a.
Can someone point me in the right direction in order to have the SSEO working?
Thanks

enzo-ita, as I can understand there is something wrong with values in ssu tables. I had a similar problem, what I did to fix it - I went to my PhpAdmin and erased all tables for ssu and then reinstalled them (run sql again). But be careful with that, always backup and just to be sure wait for other responses, because I am a newbie)))) and might be wrong.

has anybody had this odd problem with second languages (english is fine, it is only the second languge).
For my russian language ssu creates url basing on category number, for ex. my first category has url - "-c-1", the second one - "-c-2", and so on, I know I can use alias links but that's just too much work to do. Anybody has any ideas what it can be???
Thanks!!!

Thanks for your answer.
If you are a newbie, I am still sucking milk!
What are the ssu tables?
How do you erase them?
Tables tells me about MySql not about PhPAdmin.
I am lost!

login to your phpmyadmin, there select your database, in which there is a configuration table, look through entries, there must 14 entries for ssu: SSU_FILE_EXTENSION, SSU_NAME_DELIMITER, and others. Delete all of them, and then through your store run sql file again. If that still not going to help, you can run it through phpmyadmin as well. But once again - BACKUP YOUR DATABASE, you can lose everything by making a small mistake!!!!

Ok I did install phpadmin.
Open the db and browse the cofiguration table.
Under configuration key I can not find any SSU_xxxx_xxxx entry.
I think I have missed some step but I do not see which one.
Thanks

Found the problem.
I went to module_version_tracker table and changed the patch level from -1 to 1. Then trough the admin I clicked on extra>box_ssu and it updated to patch level 8 automatically.
Now I do not get any error message but:

• Under admin>configuration I can not find the command to switch SSEO on or off.
• The urls are exactly like they were before.
  What else can I do?
  Thanks
  enzo

if so you can go to phpmyadmin>yourdatabase_name>configuration>Set SSU Status and change the configuration_value to true.

OK I did more.
I have created a new record in configuration_group and assigned to it id 32.
Then I changed all the SSU_entries_xxx I found in configuration_gruop_id to 32
At this point in my admin I can see the SSU commands.
I turned SSU to true and my site does not work anymore!!!

WhenI click on admin>catalog I get the files and directory listing instead of my home page, and even if I click o index.php nothing happens!!!

If I turn SSU off, clicking on catalog, it open up my home page.
I have noticed that I have only 11 entries under the SSU commands in admin, while someone said they are 14.
May be this is the problem?

I am a real newbie I tryed all what I had the courage to try.
Please help me.
Thanks

Hi,

Made my first Zen cart, with Simple SEO installed, and all is working fine

http://bit.ly/2IUh5

Due to go live soon, and want to have the URL not have the /shop/ but just go straight to the root.

I was going to do this via .htaccess rewrite rule, but am a little worried due to Simple SEO.

Is this possible (and what do I put in .htaccess), or would it be easier to move the whole site to the root?

thanks
Nick

It is more than likely you did not upload the xajax folder came with the package.

Thanks for the module! I'm seeing the same error when I try to access Simple SSU URL Manager from Extras dropdown:
Call to a member function printJavascript() on a non-object in ...ssu.php

I did upload the xajax5 folder. Please advise.

help

using zc1.3.8a FULLY PATCHED
using ssu Beta 3.7.1

problem = items with attributes CANNOT be deleted from the customers order

any ideas people? i think this mod is not being supported by yellow1912 anymore????..

at the moment im having to keep SSU turned off as there are other small problems like the customer being unable to update product notifications.

breaks my heart to say this as yellow worked his ######## off to create a 99% working mod... but i have had to uninstall simply because it seems like there is no longer any support for thismod and i need a working cart over pretty URLs..

took me about an hour to totally remove,,, being uber carful etc..

but on the upside my site is like lightening!! while SSU caused minimul delay (1 to 2 seconds) my pages now refresh in a blink!

Sorry yellow.. good effort tho!

I have an odd problem. SSU worked awesome on my test server, however I just moved everything to the domain the site will be on and SSU doesn't work anymore. I tried turning it off, resetting the cache, turning it on, resetting the cache, but I just get 404 page not found errors and 'The requested URL /shop/contact_us does not exist. '

:(

FIXED: Had to modify the htaccess file. DUH!

Internal URLs are not being re-written.

What could cause this?

I've reinstalled several times, but I just can't get it to work.

Maybe if I knew which files made internal URLs get re-written I could discover where my bug or mistake is---

So in short, url not being rewritten? Then you must check if you changed html_output.php as required.

Ermm, new version of SSU doesnt use xajax anymore. Where did you get your package?

You are more than likely did not have ssu cache working correctly :)

Hi,

Duplicate content is no okie, actually. How can we tweak this to use a proper canonical url for linked products?

Any ideas?

In short, future version will support it. But right now if you want to do it, yes you can. You can always do that easily by getting the default url of the products, if you simply pass in the products id without the cpath (into zen_hraf_link) you will always get the default url.
