Guest Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Hello everyone, Since this is my first store and Im a little daunted by php I hired someone to install the Header Controller contribution as well as SID killer, canada post tracking and shipping with dimensions contributions.. As well I installed Ultimate SEO urls myself.. What I've run into is now when I visit one product or catagory I dont get a SID but the minute I visit another product or catagory I get a SID in my url.. Is this normal? My next major problem is whenever I edit a products description properties in admin the product name disappears.. The guy I hired to install the contrib's says its a problem with the Ultimate SEO Urls database and told me to use the fill tags function to solve the problem yet when I do that the product name is still missing... *sigh* Then today I discovered whenever I attempt to order a product after the first ordering screen it boots me out to the login screen again.. I am honestly starting to feel like Ive been taken for a ride by the people who I hired to skin the site since Ive had numerous problems.. loads of files unexplicably gone missing that I never touched or even knew existed... mentions of contributions I never installed or ever knew existed either... Please can someone help this project is wayyy over budget and weeks overdue... *Begging* IF you'd like to check out the site the url is www.thedailyspout.com maybe someone will recognise the problem.. Ive tried using the search feature on this forum to find answers but have turned up nothing.. Quote
matrix2223 Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Just from the looks of it it looks like your SEO url are not turned on to do this go to the admin panel>my store> Use SEO safe urls still in develepment (set this to true) However to get the sid off completely with SEO urls simply force cookies. Hope this helps Quote
insomniac2 Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Your best bet is to first remove the SEO urls contrib completely and the SID Killer contrib. I have run into compatability issues with those 2 mods also and removed them. Once you have those removed test all the features of your other mods and make sure everything is working BEFORE you add any more additional mods. This way you will be able to identify if it is the next mod you are installing that is causing problems. Note: Once everything seems ok you might want to try Chemo's Ultimate SEO URLS mod. It is a lot better than SEO URLS. Quote
Guest Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Im currently using chemo's ultimate seo urls.. but I will definately remove those just to see if these are in fact causing the problems Thanks for your input guys! Ill post back this evening with the results Quote
insomniac2 Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Sorry also misread your post. You do have Ultimate SEO URLS installed. go through the install process step by step and doublecheck everything is installed correctly and remove the SID Killer mod as it has compatability issues with Ultimate SEO URLS. the following instructions are a patch. Try the following code if you have not installed it: This is an awesome contribution! But, when it's turned off in the admin console the website stops working. This update fixes the problem. I just wrapped the original code & chemo's code in an 'if' statement.
