Ceon URI Mapping v4.x

[DivaVocals]

I'm on a fresh new install of v. 1.53 and on the latest versions of PHP and MySQL. My zencart developer found a conflict between this mod and Fast and Easy Checkout and the checkout does not work and she said I needed to hire a programmer. I'd like to use both mods. Has anyone else had this issue and was able to solve it? www.enlita.com/shop

Well except you don't say what "this issue" is.. Saying there is a conflict with this module and Fast and Easy doesn't really give and indication as to what kind of issue you are having.. What part of the checkout doesn't work?? Why do you think it's an issue with this module and not something with Fats & Easy??? Why does your web developer say you need to hire a programmer?? What does your web developer think this programmer needs to do???

I have used CEON both with the free and the paid version of FEAC, and there never was a problem. I think it is safe to say the problem lies somewhere else, and not in the compatibility between the two mods.

I agree.. I think a LOT more detail on the exact nature of the issue will reveal that this is indeed the case here..

Hi I will get all the details from my Zencart helper. I'm sorry for the incomplete post and will correct this today.

v.1.3.9h
Hello,
There is a known issue with Ultimate SEO URLS and FEC. I have both installed and have had to turn of Ultimate for checkout to work.

Question - can I install CEON URI Mapping module (which does not have any compatibility issues with FEC) without uninstalling Ultimate?, i.e. just leave Ultimate turned off and use Ceon?

cheers, Mike

Given that folks have both FEC and Ultimate. SEO working together says that there isn't a KNOWN issue or the author of Ultimate SEO would have included instructions to mitigate a KNOWN issue..(as he HAS indeed done before)

To answer your question, no you cannot install BOTH Ceon URI and Ultimate. SEO together..

Minor correction, they can be "installed" with the intent of replacing one with the other. They can't both be fully installed for normal operation.

Besides why would one want to leave code behind that does not serve a functional purpose. There are instructions that indicate it is possible to convert from another URI rewriter to CEON URI Mappings by keeping the other rewriter active while transitioning to CEON URI Mappings.

I thought also that USU used .htaccess rules so there would more than likely end up being a conflict of some type anyways to have both fully setup at the same time.

Hello Diva,
There IS INDEED an issue with Ultimate SEO and FEC evidenced by days of dialogue on forums and according to everyone else, including Numinix AND ihungil, author of the plugin. Obviously you have not used both plugins on site.

Thanks for the informative response, pretty much confirms what I expected but thought I would ask the question anyway - if I do install CEON I will be deleting Ultimate after the successful working of CEON with FEC on my site :). Firstly though I will seek a solution with Ultimate.

Technically and to prevent one from inaccurately saying "this doesn't work with that", the desired test should be run on a test site (non-production) before swapping back and forth and further claiming the success/failure of one with another. Sometimes it really is just a setup/install issue, but that is something to address on the other forum thread.

Be advised that swapping to CEON URI Mapping on an existing store will require some form of work to give/assign rewritten URIs to all of the existing products.
