Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

[conor]

Hi,

I've found a slight issue which I'm trying to track down and am wondering if it is with the URI mapping mod.

Does anyone else get still get to the product page even on a deactivated product?

No, when a product is deactivated its URI no longer shows the product page. The functionality is no different from the standard for Zen Cart.

At least you know it's nothing to do with the URI mapping.

Good luck in tracking down the real source of the fault!

All the best..

I've copied all the files twice (1. - 3.) and I'm still stuck at 4. I can't find "Modules > URI Mapping Config" in the Admin.

Let me guess.. you've renamed your admin folder from "admin" to something else but you've upload the admin files to a folder called "admin" on your site?

You must upload the "admin" files to whatever folder your admin folder is called.

All the renaming is done.

I do not understand much of "Setting up a Rewrite Rule".
I've made a .htaccess file with rules from the examples. Correct?
What to do with the file?

The readme that comes with this module really does do an EXCELLENT job of explaining EVERYTHING you need to do to configure/install this module.. Did you read the install instructions which explain EXACTLY where you should be placing your .htaccess file?? If you read the readme and still have questions, can you be a little more specific about what you are unsure of???

As the instructions say, upload it to your store. Either upload it to the main site's directory or the store's directory (if different), taking care to take into account which folder you've created the htaccess file for (this information is also in the section you've mentioned).

If you're still having trouble get in contact with me via this address, with FTP details for your site.

All the best..

Hi!

I'm having some issues with this module. It's working, in that when I click on a link, it uses the new url, BUT, it's not being written into the source before clicking the link. For example, when I hover over a link, in the bar at the bottom of the browser, it shows the index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1 link instead of the rewritten link.

I've checked that all files were uploaded. Perhaps you can give some hints on where to look. My .htaccess is below:

RewriteEngine On

# ONLY rewrite URIs beginning with /newstore/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/newstore/
# Don't rewrite any URIs ending with a file extension (ending with .[xxxxx])
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.[a-z]{2,5}$
# Don't rewrite admin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/newstore/admin
# Don't rewrite editors directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/newstore/editors
# Don't rewrite cPanel directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/cpanel
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/frontend
# Handle all other URIs using Zen Cart (index.php)
RewriteRule .* index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

Hi,

when I click on a link, it uses the new url, BUT, it's not being written into the source before clicking the link.

I'm definitely going to make this into a new FAQ and maybe even have the software check for missing code!

You have forgotten to upload the modified core file:

includes/functions/html_output.php

Merge/upload it and everything should be fine.

Make sure you have also merged/uploaded all other files, just to be sure.

All the best..
