zamtek:

i have installed SSU to my zen cart and it generates URL too, but it always redirects to homepage. Can anyone help me with this??

Any solution for this? i got the right .htaccess, but the website is going to the homepage everytime. The url of all links are good.

I resetted the cache several times.

It works great at first. So for testing the site I disabled ssu. I installed the English language again (before default just one lang)

Use zc 139h ssu 3.8.5

Update: I installed the first install on my local host (desktop) and the problem is there. So I uploaded the shop also to a subdomain (liveserver) and the problem is fixed.

But why doesn't it work on my localmachine? difference is PHP version: 5.2.6 (local) PHP versie: 5.1.4 (online)

Is SSU link redirecting any good for google ranking????

Hi guys

I have spent quite some time optimizing the links of my shop with SSU including defining permanent aliases etc.

Now, all my links look very nice in the browser address line, e.g.:

But by looking at the source code of my shop's html pages, I have just realized that the links themselves in the page are still the old unreadable ones. E.g. the above link is shown as follows on mouse rollover:

I am very surprised that it seems that SSU only redirects links but does not create new links!?!??!

Isn't this link redirection very bad for google ranking?

E.g. if you go to the following webservice and try to construct a site map out of your SSU-enabled Zen Cart, the web crawler of this site map generater does not find a lot:

http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/

Am I doing something wrongly, do I not have a clue how Google ranking works or is SSU really only about cosmetics and not about improving the Google ranking????

What is your opinion?

I have istalled 1.3.9.h but have the folowing problem. All my links is working, but my information sidebox the links is diplayed in English. My default language is Dutch. Also i have links in the header page. They are also displayed in English. Here is a link to my site. http://www.pantystore.nl
Can someone please advise.

Flix: when I check my code it has rewritten the url:
from
index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=4&products_id=1256
to
brake-discs-c-4/audi-a3-mk-ii-hatchback-2-0i-tfsi-quattro-1984cc-year-04-p-1256

I have only the basic install of ssu and not modified it.

neit: Interesting... are you sure that the actual URL in the HTML code itself is easily readable (i.e. the URL you see if you view the source of your shop page) or is it just the URL in the browser address bar that is easily readable?

I have read in the SSU documentation that SSU REDIRECTS links. For me, this kind of says that it does NOT REPLACE links which would mean that the links in the HTML source are still unreadable!?!?!?

Any solution for this? i got the right .htaccess, but the website is going to the homepage everytime. The url of all links are good.

Configuration
XAMPP 1.7.1
Simple SEO URL 3-5-8
ZenCart 3.8.5

I've tried to install several times and always comes up same problem i click on rewritten URL and it redirects me to homepage, start page of my site.

What's wrong what to change. I believe my .htaccess is ok:

ErrorDocument 404 strona_page_not_found.html

BOF SSU

Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On

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

RewriteBase /olito/

Deny access from .htaccess

#RewriteRule ^.htaccess$ - [F]

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) index.php?/$1 [E=VAR1:$1,QSA,L]
#RewriteRule ^(.+) index.php/$1 [E=VAR1:$1,QSA,L,PT]

EOF SSU

Thx in advice for your help

Here's a good one hopefully you guys have seen before. This morning I pulled up my site and found the text below displayed in my header. Any link I clicked on just displayed the same page and oddly enough the only thing displayed was the header. So, the first thing I did was to turn off my Sport Bike Swingarm Stands category with all the products in it and that got the site back up and operational again. Kobra seems to think this is related to my Simple SEO module. Might anyone have any idea what this is all about?

hello, can you help me?

I can not see the URL as an example, but I see missing the "_"

Sample url:
http://www.site.com/site/coltello_salmone_cm30-p-765.html

I see
http://www.site.com/site/coltellosalmonecm30-p-765.html

why? :no:

Hi,
Did you ever resolve this? I am having same exact warning in Firefox.

twsu00:

First, I'd like to think those who help create Simple SEO... this is a such good module.

Everything is fine and proper working until today when I used Mail Chimp newsletter.

Basically. I embedded several products links in the Mail Chimp Newsletter and did a test mail sent to my personal email. When I click the links in the mail, none of links are working. Instead, I receive the message from FireFox

" The page isn't redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

*   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies. "

Just wondering if any of you have encountered the similar issues like this. Please help. Thank you.

Hi, I've just found out that when i try to create a sitemap the main category pages are not appearing in the sitemap. I cannot figure out why? Any ideas? The site I am working on is https://www.postacardforme.com. I am running the Simple SEO and using http://www.xml-sitemaps.com but is says that the pages are 404, but if you click on any of them they work fine. What have I missed?

Well I of course ran over the module manager step and attempted to go back and install the software, all pages now show up blank and all the SSU admin page shows up blank as well. I did the configure.php show errors to true and nothing shows up, I also tried the ssu_check file and same, blank page. Any help would be appreciated, not even sure where to start.

Why do I get this error when clicking on extras/ssu?

What have I not done right during installation?
version 1.3.9f

Any body got any ideas why I would get No input file specified. after installing this addon.
I have tried the advice of adding a php.ini / php5.ini file with the contect of cgi.fix_pathinfo = 1
as advised at
http://wiki.rubikintegration.com/zencart/modules/ssu/troubleshootings/no_input_file_specified

but this makes no difference. All the admin side appears to function ok.

Resolved the issue buy edit the root php.ini and not putting the php.ini file in the zencart folder.
