Re: Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

Hi,
I've installed the Simple SEO URL Mod - excellent I must say! - but I do have a slight issue with my advanced search. When I try and do a search it comes up with the following error:

Moved Permanently

The document has moved here.

Additionally, a 400 Bad Request error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

The site is: http://www.rinatoofficefurniture.co.uk/advanced_search

Is anyone able to help me out on fixing this issue??

Many thanks.

[show fields from links_aliases]
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

I expereince the problem above, when i press admin, extra, simple seo, there are a few folders, that have been replaced, but i am not sure, if i am doing correctly, they are mainly include/classes/ssu/ core, i have some modules installed in my site, including module manager, jqlightbox and ih2, i am not sure if they crash to each other or not

Re: Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

Good Lord! I think I just figured out why I'm going broke not selling any of my best items. It appears this SEO software has my site screwed up. When I click on "Sport Bike Stands" it just reloads the home page. I've tried and tried with both IE and FF to reset the cache in the SEO Manager but it won't let me do it. I just continually won't load the next page. Does anyone know how to fix this mess? Please help; I make my living on this website or at least I try.

Re: Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

Update: So, I realized through copying and pasting the link locations that the pages are actually still there and it's only the link that was not working correctly. To combat this since I cannot empty the alias cache I slightly renamed those two folder names and now the links work properly again. Problem solved....for now. I tried emptying the alias cache on two zencart sites I did for friends and low and behold it won't let me do it to their sites either. I even tried this with my iPhone to make sure it wasn't a problem with my pc. I even restarted my pc. Still doesn't work. Do we have a fix for this?

You could go to your host sever control panel open file manger and delete them from there. I have to do this sometimes.

That sounds all well and good but don't you agree that we need something implemented so that we don't have to discover our websites not working properly and then fix it. Surely someone knows how to cut this problem off at the source?

Yellow has improve the clearing of the cache function in admin right much. It still has some problems but over all it still does OK most of the time. I found out it depends on what host and what kind of server you are on. Some host will work better than others when clearing the cache. I clear my cache everyday to keep it building up so many. By doing this my sites operates pretty much like I want it to.

Re: Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

How do you tell what version of SSU you are running. I notice the latest version on the website seems to be 3.7.1 wanted to know if I was up to date.

I checked the original zip I downloaded and there didn't seem to be any mention of a version number. Is it hidden somewhere?

admin/tools/module_manger and then click List all modules. That will show you.

Der.. didn't think of that. Thank you. Turns out I'm up to date.

Next question. All my categories were listed under a main category named 'All Categories'. I thought this was a little silly. So to try things out I moved all the categories in that category back a notch and deleted the All Categories category.

For some reason SSU didn't update all the links. And still after removing the cache (eventually went and did a rm -rf * in the ssu cache folder) it seems to be tagging the all-categories tag to certain items.

It seems to happen only on the highest level categories. You can see what's happening with the links at the sitemap:

http://beta.buydentalequipment.com/cart/site_map

And one of the categories in question. Please note one other buggy perhaps related. The name of the category on the top of the page says "Home" while on the normal site it would say "Mobile & Portable Equipment".

http://beta.buydentalequipment.com/cart/all-categories-mobile-portable-equipment-c-3_165

Notice the all-categories still in the URL.

Thank you,

Anthony

Re: Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

I have installed SSU and on the first admin run going to Admin/Extras/Simple SEO I briefly saw a green screen showing all the DB patches that have been applied. SSU has been turned on under Admin/Configuration. The DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE values at the bottom of each config file are identical.

The following changes have been made to both my configure.php files per yellow1912's instructions and my store resides in the root of my server, not in any sub-folder:

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.site.com');

(changed mine to http://www.earnest-enterprises.com)

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://secure.site.com');

(changed mine to https://www.earnest-enterprises.com)

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/subfolder/');

(changed mine to '/')

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/~username/subfolder/');

(changed mine to '/')

To check that everything was working properly I ran ssu_check.php. In doing this I see the following in the small window that appears (!/ designating the yellow warning signs). Below is as it appeared in sequence:

\!/ checking includes/configure.php
\!/ suggest .htaccess content
(window here showing suggested .htaccess code)
small lightbulb here stating success
\!/ checking cache write permission

I have copied/pasted the code that appears in the ssu_check window into my .htaccess file (which I had done previously but did it again). My cache directory and all sub-directories under it are set at 777. Have not touched the Admin/Configuration/Simple SEO settings and left them as they were.

Just wondering if the warning signs are normal or if I have something amiss. I have been very careful with both of the configure files in editing them. Anyone have any ideas? Yellow1912, if/when you're available? May not have a problem here but would rather find out now than later... Thanks in advance for any assist.

Just disregard  the warning signs. If everything is working OK you good to go. Go to Admin/Configuration/Simple SEO settings and set 
Set Link Alias Status to true.
Set SSU Status to true.
Set Auto Alias Status to true.
Everything should work properly.

You need to make sure your cache is cleared out good. Run clear cache in extras/simple_seo_url_manager a few more time. When I do this I always go to configuration/simple_seo and cut it off, then clear my cache. I then cut it back on and watch the magic work.

Re: Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

Thank you, countrycharm. I'll make those changes. It seems, though, that the files aren't being saved to the appropriate directories (or at least the directories the mod included in the install). There is nothing in any of them. The defaults are:

(root)/cache/ssu/products
(root)/cache/ssu/pc
(root)/cache/ssu/pages
(root)/cache/ssu/pc
(root)/cache/ssu/manufacturers
(root)/cache/ssu/categories
(root)/cache/ssu/aliases

They are all empty. When SSU runs the files are being saved to:

(root)/DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE/ssu/products
(root)/DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE/ssu/categories
(root)/DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE/ssu/pc

In checking my stats on my server the bots/spiders ARE picking up what these directories contain so maybe I should leave well enough alone. I have made no changes to any of the mod PHP files, only my ZEN configure.php's but for whatever reason they're being saved to the above folders and not the default.

Thanks again for the reply.

Re: Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

Hi. Small problem I can't get to the bottom off...
Yesterday I had to move some of my sites to a new server. Had the accounts saved in cpanel, restored them on the new installation through whm, all seemed fine. Except that in all zencart sites I have, htose that had ssu active now redirect all links to the homepage. I checked mod_rewrite, it's active, the nameservers, even the ip's are the same, I don't understand what's going on. Oh, and I seem to have php running on cgi if that makes a difference, as all my sites stated that configure.php is writable, but the file's rights were 644. I made a chmod.php to fix the issue, but the ssu problem remains. Any help please? Here's an example of what I'm talking about. This is a work in progress, a temporary domain for this would be shop. I control this server, so if there are technologies I missed on my apache compilation, please tell me. Thank you.

L.E.
Here's the content of my .httaccess

BOF SSU

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On

Make sure to change "zencart" to the subfolder you install ZC. If you use root folder, change to: RewriteBase /

RewriteBase /

Deny access from .htaccess

RewriteRule ^.htaccess$ - [F]

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule .* - [L]

RewriteRule ^(.+) index.php/$1 [E=VAR1:$1,QSA,L]

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^info-juego.es
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.info-juego.es/$1 [R=301,L]

I went back the next day and tried again. Only did 2 things, turn SSU off and on.. and fix one line in my configure for the SQL cache path, which is set to none anyway so I figured it would be ignored.. but it's nice to have things right.

Mysteriously started working.. go figure.
