TomCavendish Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I have a store fully working with SEO URLS. However, I'm moving a copy of the site (still with the same host) to new webspace and changing the domain name. I copied a copy of the site accross to the new webspace, and made the configure db changes. I had a problem with the URLS not showing on product_info pages , but then deleted the SEO cache from the db and the SEO URLS now work fine. My problem - when I go to add a product to the cart, the cart shows as empty. You'd think that as the site is exactely the same as the one fully working on the other webspace, and only a very slight change to the configure files, that it would work, but I have this empty cart problem. Anyone able to help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Anyone know what would cause the rewrite to look like this if you're in a category? /catalog/index.php?catalog=index.php It's also not prepending the cId if depth is pId.

Sarah_h Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Hello all, I've just installed the very promising Ultimate SEO, it went well without a hitch but I've a couple of questions: 1. will this work on localhost? My site resides here htdocs/application_sites/client_six/catalog. It's changing the URL and making the html bit but getting a 404 when clicking the link? My .htaccess resides in the catalog dir and I've specified \catalog\ as the rewritebase. All other pages ok BTW. But I thought that this may be because I'm using it on my local machine, would this be the case do you think? 2. where in admin can I switch off and on SEO? Thanks Sarah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 (edited) Have you tried it? ;) It should work fine on your local machine, as long as osCommerce will run on your local machine. I believe that the most recent 2.1d posted on has a feature to switch on/off the SEO features. Other than that, some other methods have been posted to this thread a few pages back. If you continue to have problems, I suggest turning off most of the features, specifically caching, and seeing if that resolves any of the issues. -jared Edited December 21, 2005 by jcall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSC in itself works fine but after installing this contrip, specifically 2.1c (and d) I am getting the 404 page not found. The links on have changed ok but I think it's my .htaccess that giving me trouble. I think I'm a bit confused about the RewiriteBase/catalog/ bit. The installation docs differentiate between the store located in a directory as opposed to the root. CAn you clarify this (I appologise if this is fundemental!!) The contents of my file are: # # For this to work, you must include the parameter 'Options' to # the AllowOverride configuration # # Example: # # <Directory "/usr/local/apache/htdocs"> # AllowOverride Options # </Directory> # # 'All' with also work. (This configuration is in the # apache/conf/httpd.conf file) # The following makes adjustments to the SSL protocol for Internet # Explorer browsers <IfModule mod_setenvif.c> <IfDefine SSL> SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" \ nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \ downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0 </IfDefine> </IfModule> # Fix certain PHP values # (commented out by default to prevent errors occuring on certain # servers) #<IfModule mod_php4.c> # php_value session.use_trans_sid 0 # php_value register_globals 1 #</IfModule> Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /catalog/ RewriteRule ^(.*)-p-(.*).html$ product_info.php?products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-c-(.*).html$ index.php?cPath=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-m-(.*).html$ index.php?manufacturers_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-pi-(.*).html$ popup_image.php?pID=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-t-(.*).html$ articles.php?tPath=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-a-(.*).html$ article_info.php?articles_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-pr-(.*).html$ product_reviews.php?products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-pri-(.*).html$ product_reviews_info.php?products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-i-(.*).html$ information.php?info_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} I also turning off most of the features as you suggested but no joy, still the 'Not Found'!

SnugBaby Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Warning: call_user_func(tep_reset_cache_data_seo_urls): First argument is expected to be a valid callback in /.../admin/includes/functions/general.php on line 1473 I am getting this same message at the top of my SEO configuration page. My category and product URL's look correct, but pages such as shipping, about us, etc still have a .php extention. I followed your suggestion to move the defines to a new location. In fact, I couldn't find where they had be defined in application_top.php previously. Even after adding these defines, I still get the error message and I still have a problem with information pages having a .php extension. Are these two problems related?

Sarah_h Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I'm getting a bit desperate now. Can anyone help as I've stil got the "Not Found The requested URL /catalog/textures-c-32.html was not found on this server." I've made sure that I've installed the contrib properly and followed the instructions, I've also made sure that apache is configured with its rewite enabled and made the .htaccess file, and tried most of the setting in admin to see what effect they had and read through every post in this thread but still no go.

curi0us Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Hello, SEO urls are great! I'm very happy with this one, I just wonder I saw that a lot of links visited by bot look like this one example-11.html?osCsid=9dcc3508dc657934220bb31206afd0b9 I don't like ?osCsid=9dcc3508dc657934220bb31206afd0b9 is there any way to get rid of it? or googlebot cuts it off?

cooldo Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 First of all. Mery Christmas to all (and sorry for my poor English) Can somebody help me: I prefer model in URL instead id. For example: http://www.domain.com/mp3-player-xyz.html (no: http://www.domain.com/mp3-player-p-42.html) Thanx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portalplanet Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Before I dig too deep into why this isn't working ok for me is this contribution compatable to the sts_template system? I've installed the SEO URLs on many other sites but this one isn't working right and I was wondering if the sts_template code was overwriting something.

tarheit Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I'm using the latest Ultimate SEO and it's been working just fine. However, I'm not trying to use FaqDesk and it's presenting a problem. Most links work just fine, but the index (the entry page to the faq) doesn't. For example: http://honeyrunapiaries.com/store/faqdesk_...x.php?faqPath=1 (works) http://honeyrunapiaries.com/store/faqdesk_...x.php/faqPath/1 (doesn't work) but the actual articles do work: http://honeyrunapiaries.com/store/faqdesk_.../1/faqdesk_id/4 (works) Anyone else run into this?

portalplanet Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I got mine to work. I had code in the wrong part.. I fixed the code and BAM! It started working just fine. Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarheit Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 It's not a complete fix, but I did manage to make it work by disableing the SEO for just faqdesk_index.php by adding the following line to seo.class.php (around line 551): if ( defined('FILENAME_FAQDESK_INDEX') ) $seo_pages[] = FILENAME_FAQDESK_INDEX; -Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewebmaster Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I have a Problem With the installation of Ultimate SEO (the very first version ever built), I was installing this on my site www.onlyfantasy.com which is running OSCOMMERCE 2.2 MS2. When i bought this site it only had very few modules added to it and few additions. Therefore virtually like a clean install, however for some reason the SEO urls will not activate The SEO urls appears in my admin section however when i got to enable and select rewrite, i go to load the pages and they aren't actually been rewritten with the correct URLS. Hence i have ended up with www.onlyfantasy.com/blakslfjsdkfljaslfjklsfsd instead of www.onlyfantasy.com/product22_3.html for example can anyone see straight off why the script might not be firing? I can give you ftp access if it helps anyone fix the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shlomik Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Hi, I installed this contibution but it just does not work. When I hover over any link it looks ok (product name and category name replaced the id), but when i click on the link i get Error 404. I tried the .htaccess with and without "Options +FollowSymLinks". I turned off all my caching. It still does not work. Any ideas?
