I'm glad you found and posted the fix since I would probably not have thought to ask about the type of server.

russischblauekatze Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Hello Jack, Is it possible to a create an option to add manufacturers_id to product URLs? Like: http://www.junabelle.de/speick-men-after-shave-lotion-p-65.html?manufacturers_id=19 When customers browse to a product by the manufacturers dropdown/list or by „other products“ from the manufacturer info box, I'd liked to show the link in the breadcrumb to the manufacturers overview like in the standard version of an osCommerce shop . I'm not concerned about duplicate content, because I'm using the canonical tag to present product urls without parameters to search engines. Furthermore -unlike cPath, which can be added- there is only one manufacturer per product. Best regards, Birgit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furthermore -unlike cPath, which can be added- there is only one manufacturer per product. You could try the "Add cPath to product URLs?" setting. It won't be exactly what you want but may be close though it won't be a separate link in the breadcrumb, which it sounds like what you want.

russischblauekatze Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 (edited) Jack, Thanks for your reply. "Add cPath to product URLs?" is still set. It's working fine. It is following the standard pathes of osCommerce - but in SEO-URLS. Going the path (also shown in the breadcrumb) Top » Catalog » DVD Movies » Drama » DVD-BELOVED in the demo store gets the URL http://demo.oscommerce.com/product_info.php?cPath=3_15&products_id=20 With USU and 'add cPath setting = true' this would become something like http://demo.oscommerce.com/beloved-p-20.html?cPath=3_15 What I'm looking for, is a "Add Manufacturer_id to product URLs?" setting. (Similar to the cPath setting.) And just keeping the given manufacturer pathes of osCommerce - but in SEO-URLS. So coming from manufacturers the "manufacturers path" and breadcrumb looks as follows: Top » Catalog » Warner » DVD-BELOVED. The URL is: http://demo.oscommerce.com/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=3&products_id=20 With USU and manufacturers_id setting = true this would be written like http://demo.oscommerce.com/beloved-p-20.html?manufacturers_id=3. Hope I made it a bit clearer now. Best Regards, Birgit Edited December 23, 2010 by russischblauekatze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thought to add that for sites with Header Tags SEO installed, the breadcrumb trail changes to the name of the manufacturer. So, in a standard shop, selecting Microsoft would provide Top » Catalog » Microsoft. That may be a little closer to what you want. If it is, you don't have to have Header Tags SEO installed (though you should). You just need to copy the changes to includes/application_top.php it makes and edit them to not use the Header Tags names.

russischblauekatze Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 You just need to copy the changes to includes/application_top.php it makes and edit them to not use the Header Tags names. Tried it but it did not change anything. When you edit the replacement and change "categories_htc_title_tag" back to "categories_name" and "manufacturers_htc_title_tag" back to "manufacturers_name" the file looks quite like the original one. I give it up for the moment. I still have to write some Christmas Greetings...! So, Happy Holidays to you and all who are reading this thread.

cactustactical Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 We have been using USU v2.1d Original for several years without a bit of trouble. In it a fit of exuberance, I decided to try the cleaned up Ultimate Seo Urls 2.1d STABLE FINAL r172. With 2.1 original, we would see a url such as: http://www.cactustactical.com/osc/ace-stocks-c-453.html'>http://www.cactustactical.com/osc/ace-stocks-c-453.html which was the translated url for: http://www.cactustactical.com/osc/index.php?cPath=453.'>http://www.cactustactical.com/osc/index.php?cPath=453. Now with 2.1d Stable Final r172, we get: http://www.cactustactical.com/osc/php4?cPath=453 The index. has been lost from the url and php has been changed to php4. This happens for every manufacturers, categories and products page. What we get is the 404 redirect since the url is incomplete. What is interesting is that if the old seo-class.php script is put back, the contribution works fine with the other Final r172 changes. So, the issue is coming out of the seo-class.php script. Looked for a similiar issue, but have not seen anything of this sort since Final r172 was made live. Anyone have any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iffy Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 (edited) Hi Jack, Excellent contribution! Thanks for all your support. It's been a great help for a newbie like me. I had the redirect to index.php problem that happens in some templates and followed instructions in a previous post: __________________________________________________________ Posted 10 October 2010 - 12:04 PM If clicking a product or Mfr takes you back to the index.php page, read this! I'd love to take credit for this fix, but I am not THAT good of a PHP developer (yet). However, if you look here http://addons.oscomm.../info/2823/v,22, Sunrise99 found a fix for your problem on February 6. I was having the same problem. The Ultimate SEO contribution (wonderful, by the way) automatically sets the new pages to .HTML pages. Your /includes/header.php file contains the following line ... if(strpos($path_parts['basename'], "php") == false) { print("<script type='text/javascript'>window.location='index.php';</script>"); } that basically says "If 'php' is not included in the basename URL, redirect to index.php! THAT'S WHAT'S CAUSING YOUR PROBLEM. I simply added "//" before print("... and it works GREAT! My code in header.php now looks like this... if(strpos($path_parts['basename'], "php") == false) { //print("<script type='text/javascript'>window.location='index.php';</script>"); } Sunrise99, you saved me a HELLUVA lot of troubleshooting!

I see where the problem may be, but have no idea how to fix it. Any suggestions. Here's the relevant section of my header.php. The code in your shop that is causing the problem is not necessairly the same as in other shops. So, while you are in the right area of code, other changes may be needed to get it to work with your template. Unfortunatley, that isn't a problem with this contribution but with the code in your shop so it isn't something that is supported here. You can try posting in the general forum and see if someone wants to spend the time fixing it for you. Otherwise you will need to figure it out yourself or pay someone to do it for you.
