Cheepnis Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Thanks for this great mod! I have installed the main portion, as well as the optional extras without any errors or issues. KISS ROCKS! Everything seems to be working ok with one exception. Since installing this, one product (that I've discovered so far) takes exceptionally long to load (20 secs). It is consistent in that load time while every other product loads almost immediately. The only difference between this product and several other almost identical items is that it has 20 reviews and has been a number one selling product for me. Obviously, as a best seller in a live store, I don't need it to be dogging! I have reset the KissMT cache - didn't help. I repaired, analyzed, optimized the database from phpMyAdmin, without error and that didn't help. I edited a small part of the item description and the updated version didn't load any faster. I'm not certain how it would be this contrib, but other than your Security Pro, nothing else has changed on this store. The product is here: Slow Item Thanks for your help! Nevermind - it seems to have been my server. I should have known better, but it was weirdly coincidental with the installation of the mod. I would delete the post, but this forum won't let me. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMD27 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I have been fidgeting with the kissmt.php language file but I am not sure if it works properly yet... Or it is not behaving as I would expect it to be - any insight would be largely appreciated... (My previous questions were mainly result of these problems) The main problem I am having is with: /** * General * Default text to add to meta titles that are too short. Leave blank if not needed. you can inlude %s to place your shop name in there. */ define( 'KISSMT_TITLE_PADDING', 'buy from %s' ); /** * Homepage * Note: The %s is where your shop name will go in the text */ define( 'KISSMT_HOMEPAGE_TITLE', 'My Great Product Range' ); define( 'KISSMT_HOMEPAGE_DESCRIPTION', 'Full Range of Wiggets' ); First problem is the title padding does not seem to work - it never adds it after the title. I put a 12 character shortened store name there. It does not add it there even if "max meta title length" is not reached. It instead takes first few words from the KISSMT_HOMEPAGE_DESCRIPTION and adds it there. It does the same thing for products pages, categories pages, etc... Is there a way to change this behavior? is it normal? On another note - is it possible to add a feature to add a number of keywords to the dynamically created list of key words? It has been mentioned in a later release you will be able to manually enter meta data if you don't want the dynamic meta tags, on an individual page/category basis I believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMD27 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Yes KissMT deals correctly with special characters. That is exactly why such characters are represented as html special characters in the source code. That may be the case but the issue with that is you can enter your full quota of keywords because 1 character é is represented by 8 character é Same issue applies for title and description It's obviously an enconding issue, something should be in UTF-8 and is not. Could be the contribution, the install of osC, the host etc ............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The text should be converted to html entities AFTER the length is stripped back.

sigspace Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) KissMT is dynamic .. it generally does a good job in the majority of cases but in other cases the output may not be what you deem to be ideal. This is simply because the code has no way of knowing exactly how you want it to be output, it does remove duplicates but yours aren't exact duplicates. Could you post the EXACT contents of .. products_name products_model First 100 characters of the description. hi FWR, Yes agreed this is a great contribution, really clever how it works...congrats! The exact contents of the fields requested are: products_name = Axel products_model = CH A20 the description field is empty we actually display a field called "catalog_number" in the breadcrumb and on the product page, we do not display the "products_model" field. catalog_number field = CHA20 The breadcrumb we use works like this: Home / Main Cat / Sub Cat / Product Name [catalog number] so this products sits in the Furniture Main Cat and in the Chairs sub cat, with the product name "Axel" and Catalog Number "CHA20", displaying as: Home / Furniture / Chairs / Axel [CHA20] Any help to modify the code to avoid displaying details twice would be much appreciated.

I am wondering if this add-on (and almost all of the FWR add-ons, as I have several ) will need modification(s) with this move? Thanks No addons of mine will require alteration. Just ensure that you make all the "cache" directories writeable. Some are sensitive to correct configure.php settings so ensure you get those right. If you do come across an issue then post in the relevant support topic.

You can edit to change the way the dynamic aspects work but you cannot make specific changes to a specific item ( unless it a non dynamically created page ).
