Hello form holland,

I have en little problem and i hope somebody can help me.

I have installed Ultimate SEO urls.
I have also installed more pics. I believe it is more_pics_advanced_2.0.6

The problem is that more pics works fine, untill the seo is turned on.
In my admin, i now have enable seo urls on false.
If i set this on true, clicking on the small pictures gives me a broken link.

I only use a big picture with a few small pictures below. They change places when clinking on them.
If i turn seo on, clicking on the small pictures gives an error. It says, this url you asked for could not be found........

So SEO is messing up my more pics, but i don't know where to look to fix it.
That is because i can read the code just a little bit and therefore i don't see where something could go wrong.

I hope somebody would like to help me?

(is it correct that the seo urls don't work when testing local, for google chrome and IE, and do work in firefox and opera? Does this fix itself when going online?)
My English is not so very good, sorry. I'm from Holland.

More Pics Advanced is not compatible with URL Rewriters. Rewriters are useless, and More Pics has been replaced by the the Fancybox code in 2.3.1, so I have no intention of fixing it.

If the SEO rewriter isn't working correctly in all browsers, ignorning the images for a moment, then you have a problem with the rewrtier. Without knowing which one, and its version, you are using, it is not possible to guess. But if it is failing that way, then you need to ask in its support thread. In the case of Ultimate SEO, you will need to post the version, your url and your .htaccess file. If the rewriter is working everywhere else in the shop except when you click on the more pics images, then that contribution is not coded correctly in some way. At this point, it wouldn't be worth troubleshooting it, in my opinion, since it hasn't been updated in two years. You would be better advised to replace it with the additional images contribution.

Thank you Jack,
I can't find the version number [img]http://forums.oscommerce.com//public/style_emoticons/default/blush.png[/img]
There is a history file, that starts with this line:
Ultimate SEO V 2.2d-11 by Jack_mcs - oscommerce-solution.com
Does that help you?

For the moment i removed the ultimate seo urls completely.

I have been building de layout of my website myself, with a little help from a sts template and stylesheet.
I have installed a couple of add-ons like ccgv trad, prof invoice and packingslip, i have a slideshow, more pics, and so on......
Everyting is working fine....
except ultimate seo urls.

I also have a probleem with the, continue shopping button, in the shopping cart. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it isn't.
And in one off the browsers it constantly shows the original buttons. (i use new buttons, i made myself)
I have removed SEO for a few minutes now and it seems that the buttons are working normaly again. (but i'm still testing that)

Edit: I forgot to mension that i use oscommerce 2.2rc2

There shouldn't be any reason why it would cause all of those problems,. at least that I can think of. First, if "removed" means you removed the actual file changes, there's no reason for that since this is an on/off setting in admin. I would turn it back on and turn STS off to make sure everythng works. If it doesn't, then you've made some mistake in its installation and you will need to do what I suggested previously. If it does work, then there is a problem in some other part of your shop.
