Freindly URL charachters missing

Recommended Posts

Hello

 

Thank you for taking time to read this.

 

Would appreciate if someone could advise help on the following.

 

SEO add on:

KissMT_1.0_r72_RC

 

Sitemap add on:

googlexml_sitemap_seo_v_1.5

 

Freindly url add on:

su_autoinstaller_1(6)

 

I have installed the above for my site but I have few question that I would really appreciate if you could clarify.

 

For example if I have a product model or product number

1U4600R/8TB

 

In the freindly URL it is displayed as:

 

http://www.mydomain.co.uk/thecus-1u4600r8tb-p-2496.html

 

1. However it also changes the meta and html title meaning it doesn't show in search engines. Removes or doesnt display certain charachters such as / _

and some charachter such as - are shown as normal

 

Before I installed the Freindly url add on: su_autoinstaller_1(6) they were being displayed as there original model or product names with all the charachters. And being displayed in search engine for example google.

 

2. Another thing is that in search engine when you click on the link it doesnt go to that product page, either goes to home page or somewhere else. Is it possible for it to take the user to the product page directly from the search engine?

 

3. Is it possible to change the order the information is displayed in the meta and html title for example:

 

Manufacturer Name: Product Number or Model Number: Short Description

 

This is because I find my products are not displayed with other companies in google shopping comparison. It is either displayed seperatly or not at all when searching for just model number / product number.

 

 

Would really appreciate any help or advice.

 

 

Kind Regards

In the add-ons section of the forums - I think under general the author of KissMT has a post running where he will give you a personal answer.

 

The answer to your problem is also contained in that post but Rob will get upset if you use it :-"

My store is currently running Phoenix 1.0.3.0

I'm currently working on 1.0.7.2 and hope to get it live before 1.0.8.0 arrives (maybe 🙄 )

I used to have a list of add-ons here but I've found that with the ones that supporters of Phoenix get any other add-ons are not really neccessary

Thank you for your reply,

 

 

I am new to oscommerce and ecommerce in general - and last thing I want to do is upset anyone, esp Rob who I already contacted and waiting on his reply, I truely appreciate the efforts and amount of contribution he and others like him offer on here, it is really superb.

 

I think my main trouble is not being able to clarify what I am want or trying to achieve in the correct terms or wording as I said it's pretty new to me, as you say the answers may be there and I was looking for someone to point me in right direction or tell me what I should be looking for so I could try and learn as I go along. As sometimes in my searches I find what turns out to be the same add on with slight variations etc by different people, which after I install turns out not for me.

 

Once again thank you for your reply.

 

Kind Regards

Hello

 

I deleted Freindly url add on:

su_autoinstaller_1(6) AND installed Ultimate_Seo_Urls_5_PRO_r205

 

However having spent long time trying to get the meta title and or Html title to display the charachters such as + / reading most of the post related I am still not getting any joy.

 

Also please can someone exmlain how do I do this part "Requires mod_rewrite and RewriteRules added to .htaccess"

 

Path Rewrite Seo Urls ( Requires mod_rewrite and RewriteRules added to .htaccess )

 

* www.mysite.com/the-brand-etc/great-product-p-3.html

 

I tried copying the htaccess file included with the download into catalog / public html i.e. root directory -

I tired clearing the cache

 

But the product_info.php in url still shows up.

 

 

 

For Choose USU5 URL format:

If I select the Path Standard Seo Urls or Standard Seo Urls products are displayed on the site.

 

But I select the other 2 options Traditional Rewrite Seo Urls or Path Rewrite Seo Urls

 

I get the following error

 

Not Found

 

The requested URL /synology-ds411ii2tb-52425-p-3302.html was not found on this server.

 

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

 

I understand its becuase its happening because I have not done this part correctly ( Requires mod_rewrite and RewriteRules added to .htaccess ) so please can some one explain this to me.

 

Kind Regards
