  1. HELP!

     

    SEO-G has been working great but is extremely slow. I have edited the configuration already and still it is very slow. I noted that when I go to G-Reports, I delete all and then the site is super fast for a few days. Then when the reports fill up again, the site is slow again.

     

    My question is, how can I make my site fast? Below you can see my configuration on how I have it setup. Is there a way to simply not use the reports table? Or maybe run a cron to delete it every week or so? I dont have many products, but the system adds the links when they are added to cart, buy, etc and all those only slow down the system. Or is there a way for the system to only add the actual products without adding the add to cart, buy now links, etc? Any suggestions? How do businesses with thousands of products do it?

     

    I have edited configuration as follows:

    SEO-G Master Switch true

    SEO-G Extension .html

    SEO-G Error Header 404

    SEO-G Redirect 404.php

    SEO-G Strict Validation false

    SEO-G Safe Mode false

    SEO-G Auto Names Builder true

    SEO-G Continuous Check false

    SEO-G Process Secure Pages true

    SEO-G Redirection Table false

    Looks like hundreds of people ask for help and not a single one gets answered. Kinda defeats the purpose of having a forum doesnt it? I know its all voluntary but if the only action in this thread is people asking for help and nobody answers them, why even bother having this thread? Its obviously non attended by anyone.

     

    If anyone can explain this I would appreciate it a lot. Its been months since my last post. Hope it doesnt take another few months to get a reply.

     

    SEO-G has a "G-Reports" link on the left admin. I have to manually go in EVERYDAY and delete all in order for site to not be so slow!

     

    Can anyone tell me what this reports table is for and how I can disable it indefinitely without it affecting the contribution? Can it just read from the controller and not use this reports table?

     

    Or at least tell me how to setup a cron to automatically delete all on a schedule? I really hate this reports section. Makes my site SUPER SLOW.

     

    Thanx.

     

     

    P.S. If you are reading this and its been a few weeks or months after it was posted . . . DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THIS CONTRIBUTION. IT HAS NO SUPPORT WHATSOEVER. Unless you're a developer and dont need support, you can consider it. If not, use at your own risk. You will be left high and dry with support.

  3. Great Contrib.

    LITTLE PROBLEM. :blink:

    Admin>customers.php does not update. All customers say --none--

    Any idea how to fix this? Where should I look to fix this?

     

    Also in Reports>stats_referral_sources.php

    Dropdown choices show the real number of referrals from each. However, I only have one Other field and it has 121 instead of 1. 121 people have not entered other. Only 1.

    Any idea how to fix that?

    I triple checked instructions and all is exactly as directions indicate.

    Thanx in advance for you help. :blush:

     

    Ok I got the --none-- fixed in the main customers.php. However, I tried to show it on the main admin index page in Admin>includes>modules>index>customers.php

    I miserably failed. haha I'm not good with PHP. Here is the code I used, Hopefully someone can see my mistake and tell me what to fix??

     

    <table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4">
     <tr class="dataTableHeadingRow">
    <td class="dataTableHeadingContent"><?php echo ADMIN_INDEX_CUSTOMERS_TITLE; ?></td>
    <td class="dataTableHeadingContent"><?php echo ADMIN_INDEX_CUSTOMERS_DATE; ?></td>
    <td class="dataTableHeadingContent"><?php echo TABLE_HEADING_REFERRED_BY; //rmh referral ?></td>
     </tr>
    <?php
     $customers_query = tep_db_query("select c.customers_id, c.customers_lastname, c.customers_firstname, ci.customers_info_date_account_created from " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . " c, " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS_INFO . " ci where c.customers_id = ci.customers_info_id order by ci.customers_info_date_account_created desc limit 26");
    
    //rmh referral start
      $source_query = tep_db_query("select customers_info_source_id  from " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS_INFO . " where customers_info_id = '" . $customers['customers_id'] . "'");
      $source = tep_db_fetch_array($source_query);
    
      $entry_referral = tep_get_sources_name($source['customers_info_source_id'], $customers['customers_id']);
    //rmh referral end
    
    
     while ($customers = tep_db_fetch_array($customers_query)) {
    echo '  <tr class="dataTableRow" onmouseover="rowOverEffect(this);" onmouseout="rowOutEffect(this);">' .
    	 '	<td class="dataTableContent"><a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CUSTOMERS, 'cID=' . (int)$customers['customers_id'] . '&action=edit') . '">' . tep_output_string_protected($customers['customers_firstname'] . ' ' . $customers['customers_lastname']) . '</td>' .
    	 '	<td class="dataTableContent">' . $customers['customers_info_date_account_created'] . '</td>' .
    	 '	<td class="dataTableContent">' . $entry_referral . '</td>' .
    	 '  </tr>';
     }
    ?>
    </table>

     

     

    I was not able to fix the problem in Reports>stats_referral_sources.php

    Still shows 121 instead of just 1.

     

     

    Your help is greatly appreciated.

  5. I want to see a preview of this checkout system but the sample site given at the beginning of the thread is no good: http://seelily.com/

     

    Can anyone give me a link to see how this works/looks?

     

    Not sure if this is what I would need, so I really need the visual.

     

    Can anyone give me a link or preview image of each step?

     

    I'm wondering what it looks like when anonymous tries to checkout, when new user checks out and when member checks out.

     

     

    Thank you.

  6. Juan,

     

    In the admin panel....under configuration.......shipping and packaging......tare weight.

     

    If this is set to anything other than zero it will add that amount to each package.

     

    It is used if you have a standard box weight, then the contents weight is added to the standard box weight.

     

     

    Chris

     

     

    YEAH!!! That fixed it. I had it setup on 2 and it should have been set to .2

    haha

     

    Thanx!

  7. I realize that ounces are not supported so we have to use decimals.

     

    Lets say I have two items. One weighs 0.21 pounds and another 0.24 pounds. The total should be 0.45 pounds (7 ounces) which rounded off should charge me for 1 pound of shipping.

     

    However, my USPS module rounds them off first, then adds which results in overcharging. It sees it as first item weighing 1.21 pounds and second item 1.24 pounds and when added it quotes for an order weighing 2 pounds 7 ounces! It literally doubles shipping!

     

    How can I fix this? Is there a fix for this?

     

    Please help.

  8. Yes, I see this problem. The fix for it is more than I can do quickly here but I will get to it in the next version.

     

    For the Additional Link Control problem in your other post, have you installed the latest version? That should have been fixed with it.

     

    Here is the link to the Google Sitemap contribution I mentioned. I use the last one by Chemo.

     

    Jack

     

     

    I installed the 1.3 version by Chemo as you recommended but it does not generate SEO urls. They are all the default http://www.mysite.com/product_info.php?products_id=30

     

    I dont see Chemo having a forum to discuss this so what do you suggest? How did you get it to work? By the way I have the SEO-G contribution not the ultimate SEO contribution.

     

    Thank you Jack

  9. The only file changes were to the admin/sitemap_seo_page_control.php and admin/includes/functions/sitemap.php files. You can safely upload those to your installation and the contribution will be updated. Although you may want to note what I said about clearing the one table.

     

    Jack

     

    This is probably faster. However I didnt really follow the clearing table. How does one do that? phpMyAdmin???

     

    Thanx.

     

     

    - Regarding the Google XML thing, you're right. Its best to keep them apart. Any thoughts on when the next version is coming out for the translation of titles?

     

    Thanx.

     

    P.S. Will send you the spanish versions tomorrow. Kinda booked at the moment.

  10. hei

    great add on

     

    i have a problem on:

    admin/sitemap_seo_box_control.php

     

    the error messsage is :

    Select a Box

     

    Note: This is a multi-select list so more than one item can be selected at once.

    Fatal error: Cannot use string offset as an array in /admin/includes/functions/sitemap.php on line 410

     

    Thank you!

     

     

    Post #3 answered this problem:

     

    As for the multi-select, at line 406 in the admin/includes/functions/sitemap.php file, change

     else

     

    to this:

     

     else if (tep_not_null($selected_vals))

  11. Hey Jack,

     

    Great contribution!!!

     

    2 little things . . .

     

    1. When I go to Configuration>SiteMap SEO

    I notice you can change the heading text. However it does not support other languages. Is there a fix so it can support more languages? I need to add spanish.

     

    2. Is there a way to add a button to generate a sitemap XML file? sitemap.xml

    However, it would be best to not auto send to google. I do advanced SEO manually and its best if I send to google myself after I play with the file. You may want to add a second button to create and send to google for other people if you want but I think its best to keep them separate. Just a generate sitemap.xml file is good enough for me.

    What do you think?

     

    Thanx Jack and great work!

     

     

    P.S.

    My site is english/spanish.

    I'll give you the spanish translations to this if you want them for others to use. I already translated them. Let me know if you would like this.

  12. The links created by the sitemap generator are a big problem and is why I was against adding that option in the first place. For anyone using a url rewriter, the sitemap generator in this contribution should not be used. As an alternative, you may want to take a look at this sitemap contribution I just uploaded. It will, in my opinion, give better results, especially in a case like yours.

     

    Jack

     

    Awesome! I'll give that a test drive tomorrow morning.

    Happy New Year!

     

    Thanx Jack.

  13. Just got this working. Looks good but . . .

     

    I have the SEO-G contribution for Search engine optimization.

     

    All my links generated on the site maps are the default:

    http://www.mysite.com/product_info.php?products_id=28

     

    but they should be like this:

     

    http://www.mysite.com/product-name.html

     

     

    Any idea how to fix this? Also, is there a way to show my products on the sitemap? Only categories are showing and I have a little bit of products so showing them would be ideal.

     

     

    Can anyone help with this? I can pay if necessary. I need this fixed ASAP.

     

     

    Thanx.

  14. Manufacturers left box that has a drop down is not generating SEO links.

     

    If I use the left drop down menu it will take me here for example:

    http://www.aliviovital.com/index.html?manufacturers_id=9

     

    SEO works on the Right manufacturers Info Box. When I click on the Other Products link, it will take me here:

    http://www.aliviovital.com/hewlett-packard.html

     

    So this tells me its not a problem with SEO G but rather the Manufacturers Box has to be edited to work with SEO G. So it reads from the SEO links.

     

    Any idea how to do this?

     

     

    I figured out how to do this so came back to share it.

     

    SEO-G has to read the link in order to create it. It was not reading the drop down.

    So I had to figure out a way for the manufacturer link to appear but not on a drop down. So I went to Configuration, then Product Listing.

    Under "Display Product Manufaturer Name" I put "1"

    Then you click on a category. On the list of items you will also get a manufacturer name and link. Since SEO-G just read it, it has now added it and will work from then on.

     

    After this I went back to Display Manufacturer Name and put it back to "0" cause I dont want it displayed.

    I only displayed it temporarily so SEO-G can read it and create its link.

     

    I'm sure there are other ways of doing this, perhaps even easier, but this is how I came across a solution.

  15. I am using the image magic contribution and I have great seo urls, but my images stopped worked.

     

    I tried to g-exclude the imagemagic.php file - no luck.

     

    I tried an htaccess trick to not url rewrite the imagemagic.php file, but I couldnt figure out the logic.

     

    Is there a way to get the imagemagic contrib and this seo-g contrib to both work together?

     

     

    They should work together without a problem. If they dont, then you probably made a mistake somewhere during the install. This usually happens when you overwrite some text. If I were you I would use the backup before you installed SEOG and reinstall it again. Except when you overwrite anything, dont simply overwrite, look at the code and find out what is being added and only add the little bit of code that is being added. That way you will not overwrite anything from your imagemagic contribution.

  16. Whenever the product is marked "Out of Stock", featured items auto removes or does not show it as a featured item. That is great!!

     

    However, what if the item is In Stock but the Quantity set to Zero??

     

    Anyone have an idea how to make it behave the same if quantity is set to zero??

     

    I want to show some items In Stock but with Quantity of Zero and have the Featured not show it. Is this possible?

     

     

    This is my issue, I installed the Show Sold Items contrib. However, the Wolfen Featured Sets still show the Buy Now button when the Quantity is zero. Rather than editing all the Buy Now images, I figure it would be easier and faster for the Featured Sets to simply not show them if quantity is set to zero.

     

    Show Sold Out Items contrib. in case you are curious about what I'm talking about:

    http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/4884

     

     

    So how can I make the featured items dissappear is quantity is zero???

  17. Manufacturers left box that has a drop down is not generating SEO links.

     

    If I use the left drop down menu it will take me here for example:

    http://www.aliviovital.com/index.html?manufacturers_id=9

     

     

    SEO works on the Right manufacturers Info Box. When I click on the Other Products link, it will take me here:

    http://www.aliviovital.com/hewlett-packard.html

     

     

    So this tells me its not a problem with SEO G but rather the Manufacturers Box has to be edited to work with SEO G. So it reads from the SEO links.

     

     

    Any idea how to do this?

  18. I just got this working. All seems fine. Head Tags section in Admin is fine. Except when I click on the Catalog link in my admin I get this:

     

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSEIF in /home/...../public_html/admin/categories.php on line 816

     

    Now I cannot see my categories or products. Any idea how to fix this?

     

     

    This is what I have on line 816:

    } elseif ($action == 'new_product_preview') {

     

     

    On the Install_Admin.TXT file, it is referring to about step 12 where it says:

    Around line 679, find this section of code in admin/categories.php

     

    Any ideas how to fix this?

     

    I dont want to paste my entire code here cause its over 1400 lines. But if you need it to find the problem, let me know so I can post it.

     

     

    Thanx in advance!

  19. When I do http://www.dietsources.net/emagrecesim-us/ it gives me the following message

     

    Warning: main(emagrecesim-us): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/d/i/e/dietsources/html/root.php on line 154

     

    Warning: main(emagrecesim-us): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/d/i/e/dietsources/html/root.php on line 154

     

    Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'emagrecesim-us' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/content/d/i/e/dietsources/html/root.php on line 154

     

     

    You cannot link to open URLs like that. You must specify the index or default landing page in that directory.

     

    http://www.dietsources.net/emagrecesim-us/index.html

     

     

     

     

    Second option would be to edit your htaccess file like this (above the SEO-G code):

     

     

    RedirectMatch permanent ^/emagrecesim-us/$ http://www.dietsources.net/emagrecesim-us/index.html

     

     

    You would do this for all subdirectories you have. Do whatever is faster for you.

  20. Just install SEO-G, I followed step by step the installation package but SEO-G option not showing in my panel.

    Please help

     

     

    You missed some steps when editing the files in your admin folder. Double check all files that you edited in the admin folder.

  21. I have the same problem, It worked for 2 days, but now i am suddenly being redirected to cookie_usage.php. i noticed that if i comment the last line in mysite/admin/.htaccess, the one that says "require valid-user " it works ok, but that not what i want. i want it to ask for user name and password. Can you please tell me how you solved this issue. Thanks

     

     

    Backup your htaccess file. then try adding this above your SEO text:

     

    RedirectMatch permanent ^/admin$ https://www.yoursite.com/admin/index.php
    RedirectMatch permanent ^/admin/$ https://www.yoursite.com/admin/index.php

  22. Dear all,

     

    When a guest register and fill in the member information form, how to add a "How Did You Find Us?" box, for example:

    *Magznines

    *Yahoo/Google

    *Friends

    *TV

     

    This is good for the shop owner to know the referal source of customers. Is this easy to implement? Please kindly advise or give a hint, thank you very much!

     

    Best regards,

    allright
