mmangoezz Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Hello, I am wondering if any of you know how to simplify the URL for products I'm selling on my website. For example, my current URL for a product is: http://mywebsite.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=5&osCsid=19a06baf45d99e7f08ddf0ed36e0e7d2 Which is, well, disgusting. I want it to be short and simple to make it easy to share and send URLs for products The best example I can find for this is a music site called zZounds. An example URL for one of their products is: http://www.zzounds.com/item--GIBLPSTU Totally beautiful. Any help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

npn2531 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Ultimate Seo Urls 5 produces links like .. my-great-product-p-32.html my-great-category-c-22.html Question on Ultimate SEO: Does the contribution redirect links like 'product_info.php?cPath=6&products_id=65' to links like 'my_great_widget', or does it change what the OSCommerce actually generates?

npn2531 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 The links are generated by osCommerce. Perhaps a better way of asking the question is: Right now my shop generates product page urls like 'product_info.php?cPath=6&products_id=65', as it is designed to do. After I install the contribution will it still generate that url or will it generate the more SEO friendly url like 'my-great-widgets.html' ?
