[Contribution] SEO-G

[♥zelf]

Enigma. Great work here. Totally blows away seo-url's across the boards.

 

In the manual it states "The page split is the number of entries to display for the SEO-G pages." I have looked through the forums trying to understand this.

 

I have a category with 58 products in it. It currently splits at 30, but my SEO-G config is set to: "SEO-G Listings Split 100".

 

What is this setting? Do I need to be concerned about Google picking up the other 28 products on the "Next" page?

 

Please help me understand this setting's significance and what it is supposed to help with SEO.

I keep seeing googlebot on my site and it is looking at urls constructed like the following:

 

"/product_info.php?products_id=263&page=1&sort=5d"

 

How is it picking up the product_info.php page at all with SEO-G installed?

 

From the front end as I click around I am getting nothing but the perfect formed SEO-G html pages.

 

Note: I do have the sort for product listing split fix installed as noted in the manual.

Thanks Andrea!

 

I'll try this once I have some time to dedicate to it. I guess it really doesnt bother me if the feed is sent with ugly urls. I am just wanting to use it for SEO purposes. As long as the old URLs are still working with it, its fine with me :)

It is quite possible that I'm wrong here, but could it just be that your whos online is still showing the old url in its views, but google is actually seeing the new ones?

I considered that, but any other visitor besides googlebot is showing SEO-G formed urls in whos online. Maybe googlebot picked up a page while I was transitioning from seo-urls to seo-g. When googlebot is on your site does the whos online show seo-g formed urls or osc stock urls?

In the manual it states "The page split is the number of entries to display for the SEO-G pages." I have looked through the forums trying to understand this.

 

Oh boy. It's referring to the number to display in the backend administration area for url's. Has nothing to do with the front end. My bad.

[Rachael w.]

I've just installed in on one site. That was way too easy, makes me think I did something wrong or its gonna crash! I'm not used to a mod working right off the bat!

 

It appears as though my whos online is showing the correct urls (the seo-g generated ones), however, I have whosonline 3.2 installed, maybe thats the difference

On the front end of the site when they are 60 products in a category and the split is set to 30 you get the stock osc previous and next page links.

 

These next and previous links on split page results do not have SEO-G formed urls. Did I miss an install step or is there a way to form the urls such as ...

 

http://www.mydomain.com/something.html = Page 1

http://www.mydomain.com/something_2.html = Page 2 (Url on the next link)

 

... and so on and so forth.

[Rachael w.]

ahhh haaa! Take it out of safe mode and the pages work properly! :) Still playing with, I'm a newborn to this, only an hour old so I'm trying to figure it out as I go along.

Puggy,

 

I see you changed the redirect from cookie_usage, where did you do that?

 

Also, for some reason my manufacturer pages urls are not changing, darn if i can see why. Any suggestions?

Edited November 12, 2007 by theantiquestore

[Rachael w.]

I've fixed the manufacturer issue by installing the css manufacturers box mod. I would have preferred the dropdown box but it'll do.

 

I also changed the cookie_usage to index.php.

 

Now for some reason, I cant figure out how to get any changes I've made to the gzones to show up on the site. Is there somewhere to refresh the urls that I've missed?

 

Has anyone used this with chemos google sitemap generator?

 

I also seem to be having an issue with the tell a friend page, I would like it to show "tell a friend" in the url but not sure how to do that.

 

It seems to show the category name in the url sometimes, sometimes not.

 

Looks like I'd have a duplicate content issue with some of the urls.

 

Also, I have noticed google is spidering my old urls, I would assume its coming directly from my current sitemap (chemos google xml sitemaps) and its not seeing the new url.

Theantiquestore: I don't know what you mean by G-Zones. I only see this in Admin:

 

Configuration

G-Types

G-Controller

G-Exclude

G-Reports

G-Redirects

 

What do you mean by G-Zones?

 

As for seeing Google still crawling old urls...that will take time to change. Be glad they're crawling. LOL.

 

The sitemap...if you click on G-Reports you'll see a button to generate a Google Sitemap. You'll also see a box to select to Notify Google. I never got that working. I can generate a sitemap if I just click the Google XML button, and save what it generates to my hard drive. But, if I tick the Notify Google box...I get errors onscreen.

 

The problem, too, with the Google XML button is that it appears to pull its info from G-Reports. Which means...the old, unfriendly URLs are picked up in the file it creates. Not to mention, duplicate content. Multiple URLs for the same page or product.

 

I downloaded and saved the file to my hard-drive....and then manually edited it to get rid of all URLs that I did not want appearing in the sitemap. No small job, either, having over 2500 items in my site at that point. And then I manually uploaded the sitemap to Google.

 

Whenever I create new listings now, which is almost daily...I open that XML file and manually edit it and add the new links to the file. Then I upload it and write over the existing file. There's got to be an easier way...I just haven't figured it out. I want nothing but the new links in the sitemap. I'm in hell, really. :)

 

Not all of your categories are showing .html extensions?

 

I don't know what to say about that. If you 'imported' all of your categories like you should...they all should have .html extensions. Name-Of-Category.html.

 

I'd go play with that again. Investigate what did get picked up versus what did not.

 

Isn't there some documentation within the contrib regarding Tell-A-Friend? I could swear I saw something about that. I just remember skipping over that because I don't care enough about it to bother.

hello,

 

first sorry for may bad english.

i have a big problem with seo-G, i have read all 45 sites. there a lot of peopel with the same problem but for me are the fixes not working. :'(

2. urls are not rewriting with correct names /index_cpath-26_34.html

3. when i update information.php in controller and i click on validate gives me an sql error other pages are correct

First up: Great Mod, congradats to the author! I have a few questions though:

 

1) At the begining of every browser session, the first product, category link, etc. that I click on displays the original url, but any link after that shows the proper seo url. Why is this? I have no additional mods that would affect this, and I have the default settings set-up except that I enabled seo-g urls.

 

2) I noticed this mod displays the url in title, is there a way to change this? Can this be used in conjuction with any other meta tag geneartor mods?

 

3) Is there any mod I can safely used to create a sitemap page that I can add to my website that will work seo-g mod?

 

Thanks again, and great work!!

[Rachael w.]

The G-Zones is under G-controller. I was able to get the urls to work correctly after I deleted them all in the G-Reports and let them repopulate.

 

I still didnt get the tell a friend to work, but I ended up turning it off for now since I dont have time to play with it.

 

I am just a hack, so it takes me a little longer to wrap my brain around these mods to get them to be friendly with my heavily hacked site. Once I have some time I'd really like to get it to work, it was a very easy install. My biggest issues are with the sitemap and tell a friend.

After a lot cup of coffes and 1 pack malboro ^^ i can fix the sql error (error in admin whne call information.php) and i see urls are working after delete/refresh.

 

first as info for all user from information pages unlimited!!

 

in phpmyadmin find in information tabelle the field imformation titel and information description tu utf8_general_ci then the work admin with information.php

 

only the cookie usage php make me crazy........ :'(

 

i have no idea more, but i need the contrib :(

 

 

or know anyone a contrib that url rewrite and with information pages+metas work ?

ultimate seo urls have problems with info managers, but by me are 75% of the content inside of info managers :(

 

 

one thing i cant understand.

 

come the cookie error why the the urls not found ? (urls show correct & rewrited) and then redirect or

is it a generall error called from unkwon code or bug ?

 

where can i disbaled cookie usage page ? under admin-config-seesons the are of false (spider on)

 

 

thx and greats hannes

Hi Rachael: Okay. I get it now.

 

When you click on G-Controller the screen loads as G-Zones. That's where the confusion was on my part. I'm sitting here looking for a G-Zones entry to click on and...there is none.

 

What exactly are you trying to accomplish with Tell A Friend? Get the URL to show up as...tell_a_friend.html?

 

If I click on a product listing and then click on the Tell A Friend box in my site...I get something like this:

 

www.mysite.com/tell_a_friend.html?to_email_address=&products_id=9999&x=5&y=6

 

What are you seeing in your site? And I guess the big question would be...what's the big deal?

 

SEO-G is designed, I feel, to make your product listings and information pages more SEO friendly. Does it really matter if the Tell A Friend box has an appendage on the end of it? I don't think anyone gives a *** over our Tell A Friend boxes, you know?

 

I think this is all about having our product listings stop reading as mysite.com/product_info.php blah blah blah and create some recognizable, user friendly content within the body of those URLs. Same thing with the info pages...I don't understand why you're worked up over Tell A Friend. It's got to be one of the LEAST important parts of your website. Just my opinion!

 

Andrea

[Rachael w.]

On my site, I've changed the tell a friend to a link rather than a box, so when someone clicks the tell a friend link in the product page the url is exactly the same as the product. There is no change between the product url and the tell a friend url. Probably just an error for my site. I'll look it to it further.

Hello everyone,

 

I cant find a solution for my problem on this thread. When i have SEO_G on i cannot add products to the cart. The cart still be empty when i add one. But when I exclude product_info.php then there is no problem. But de link will not be converted. it will show www.mycompany.com/product_info.php?products_id=

 

Is there a fix for this?

 

Thnx in advanced,

 

Ronald

I found my error. I installed the first version of seo g. I reinstalled the latest version and it works great. I have only one question: in the configuration page I have double entries for master switch, extension, error header, redirect, parts separator, words separator, inner separator, and listing split. Although I think the settings are working (they are for master switch) I'm not sure if I should be concerned. Any thoughts. I ran the database script twice, once for the v1.0 and a second time for the latest version. Is this why there is a problem? I'm of the opinion if it ain't broken, don't fix it. However, I just hope there isn't a conflict later. Anyways, great contribution.

Hi Max: I did that once, with Credit Class Gift Voucher. I had duplicate entries in Admin.

 

If you use Cpanel and can use PHPmyadmin.....login and select your database and then look at the configuration entries for SEO-G. Select and delete the duplicate(s).

 

I don't know enough to say whether or not it's a cosmetic issue or it's something that needs to be taken care of. I just figure...if I install something and I end up with duplicate entries in Admin...it needs to be fixed. So, I fix it.

Hi,

 

I lik ethe concept of this contrib, however after fully isnatlling it i go to the admin SEO-G and it just seems to be in an endless loop?

 

Also if i goto my admin/Orders i get sql error this latter error seems to do with orders so i am not sure why it has started after installation of SEO-G??

 

Customers Order Total Date Purchased Status Action  
1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '*) as total from (orders o left join orders_total ot on (o.orders_id = ot.order' at line 1

select count(distinct *) as total from (orders o left join orders_total ot on (o.orders_id = ot.orders_id), stores st, orders_status s ) where o.orders_status = s.orders_status_id and s.language_id = '1' and ot.class = 'ot_total' and o.orders_stores_id = st.stores_id

hi there, i just isntalled this: http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/4589 the CSS MENU

 

and now all my links when clicked on the menu, load to a page with this error:

 

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: read_cache() in /home/puregnet/public_html/shop/includes/classes/url_rewrite.php on line 215

 

 

(had to disable cache for the menu to work)

 

does anyone know what i can do to make this contribution work with SEOG?

 

 

thank you

Are you sure you're using SEO-G?

 

I don't see any catalog>includes>classes>url_rewrite.php in my file structure at all.

 

Perhaps that's something related to what you installed recently?

 

I see no such file in my directory.
