lobtec Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 I have a problem regarding the rewriting of the url. The links are transfered to the url_rewrite function but they get thrown out to fast. I have located it (I think) to: // Exit if the URL is not specified in the pages function if ((strpos($url, 'action')) || (!$this->pages(current($url_array = explode('/', trim(ltrim($url_parts['path'], DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG), '/')))))) return $url; If the $url_parts['path'] is /shop/product_info.php/cPath/21/products_id/30 this should get throug this. When the ltrim function is done the thing left of the string is roduct_info.php/cPath/21/products_id/30 which won't be found in the pages. What can I do in order to get this to work? At least tell me if this is the problem ;) The mod_rewrite works and I can manually insert the pages I want to go to (/shop/books/testbook for example). But no url gets rewritten like that. Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lobtec Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Found the solution just after I posted. Thanks to Thesee for the help in a previous post!!! Now on to the next problem. My site is in Swedish and therefore I have used ?, ? and ? in the names of things. For example B?cker = Books. The url_rewrite prepares the url by switching these characters to a, a and o. Thus the path /shop/B?cker/n?tet rewrites to /shop/Bocker/natet. When you click the transformed url you get to a page where not much is correct, no info about the book exists. It seems that the only thing on the page is the footer. But if you write the first one (with the Swedish char) in manually things works very good. What can I do to fix this? The best I think is not to have the ?, ? or ? in the address. Although, nowdays they allow you to but domains with these characters in it.

thisismyurl Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 (edited) I love this contrib but I'm having a funny problem ... The product pages work perfect but when I go to add to cart, it's telling me the page can not be found. So: http://www.mydomain.com/store/Gift-Ideas/6234-Golf-Umbrella/ is working fine but http://www.mydomain.com/store/product_info...ion/add_product and http://www.mydomain.com/store/product_revi.../products_id/50 are both returning a "page not found" error.

Guest Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 this contribution is serving nonexistant url's as 200's. i have already implimented: //START OF 404 if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id']) || (isset($cPath) && tep_not_null($cPath))) { // Attempting to access product or category. Do not redirect to 404. } else { $filename = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; if ($filename == "/") $filename = basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); if (!file_exists($filename)) { // Attempting to access a file that we could not find. require('includes/404.php'); exit; } } //END OF 404 but that only works for mysite/sdgsdg for any category or product that has a similar name, it's being pulled and served a 200. i just renamed one of the categories the other day and although the proper urls are showing on the website, the bots are still indexing the old url's. in fact, msnbot is on it this very moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 If you want to put your oscommerce in a subdirectory (not in root), thi code willnot work. You should change in the file url_rewrite.php this code: search the function transform_url search if ((strpos($url, 'action')) || (!$this->pages(current($url_array = explode('/', trim(ltrim($url_parts['path'], DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG), '/')))))) ? ? ? ?return $url; replace with if ((strpos($url, 'action')) || (!$this->pages(current($url_array = explode('/', trim(str_replace(DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG, '', $url_parts['path']), '/')))))) ? ? ? ?return $url; The only change is: the function "ltrim" is not good to make this work. Replaced it with str_replace. Form me it works, let me know ;) bye Giuseppe - a big thanks - you saved me a lot of time with your post. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettLefty Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 I'm having trouble getting this addon to work alongside the Meta Tag Controller (per item per category) script. I think the reason is because the url doesnt show "product_info.php" so the controller addon doesnt know it needs to change the title. The meta tag contribution is: http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...search,meta+tag "Custom META Tags per Item" And i am using the 1.8 version of this SEF url with the most recent fix to change the nested categories. my site is http://www.liftchair.com/catalog and you can see that the meta tag addon is infact working by going to one of the item pages and pressing review. Youll also notice that this SEF addon doesnt include the reviews in the optimized urls. Perhaps this is the reason that the meta tag addon is working? I was thinking i might be able to fix it by passing the information to the meta tag addon BEFORE going to the search engine friendly addon, but i dont know how to go about doing this. Does anyone know how i might be able to fix this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will find them in your admin under configuration >> My Store This also means that you will not be able to use Search Engine Friendly Urls by Blueyon since it is dependant on this setting being set to "true". Here are some pointers to check before deciding to use Search Engine Friendly Urls by Blueyon: This contrib works providing you follow these guidlines first... 1. Go to your shops admin and set Use Sef Urls to true , then go to your shop and navigate around aswell as trying to purchase something and go through the whole checkout process.... If you get any errors while doing this , you can not use this contrib. 2. If you use a shared ssl certificate , you can not use this contrib due to not being able to use force cookies with shared ssl. 3. You must have unike names for categories, sub-categories and products...not even 1 name can be the same for any of them. If this is ok at your set-up , then you should be able to use SEF URLs (from BlueYon/Daniel Kerr) without any problems. Just follow the install instructions carefully. If your set-up is not compatible with the mentioned points, you should choose anoter seo/sef url contrib instead.

You will have to modify the function for "Custom META Tags per Item" to alowe for the fact that when using SEF url the products are showed from index.php and not as in a default store from product_info.php .

shariq Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 Hello, That contribution is really great and thank you everyone who helped to make it. However, I have some problems with it and I can't make it working. Everything was fine with default products and categories until I imported ~450 products with Easy Populate. I am 100% sure that it's not EP's issue because all products are listed correctly in admin panel and there are no errors when modifying them. My store I am currently working on is located here: http://www.music-collector.pl/ Default osCommerce products are listed correctly even when moved to new categories: http://www.music-collector.pl/Specjalne/Ni...s-Sacred-Lands/ But when I try to browse new products only parent categories are working. Everytime I enter subcategory or products located there I'm not redirected anywhere even when address changes like this: http://www.music-collector.pl/Vinyl/LongPlay/ or http://www.music-collector.pl/Vinyl/LongPl...a-12-JAPAN-OBI/ but I still stay in there: http://www.music-collector.pl/Vinyl/ Could you please help me to modify the script to make it work with subcategories and products placed there? I have "Seach Engine Friendly URL V1.8" version (from 7 Jul 2005) and "Security Fix and Added Feature" url_rewrite.php modification by dynamoeffects (from 8 Nov 2005). That modification adds categories and subcategories to product url but the error I have was also present with default url_rewrite.php I think it has something to do do with cache'ing but even when i Thank you in advance for any help.

Best regards, Piotr 1. first check that you have doen the required mod in admin/includes/functions/general.php 2. then after having done a easypopulate import..go into admin>>catalog>>content and edit any category and/or product....WHY..to delete the cache files so new ones inc. the new changes will be made. Att..also double check that there are no duplicate names being imported..... No product, cat and/or sub-cat can have the same name.

Att..also double check that there are no duplicate names being imported..... No product, cat and/or sub-cat can have the same name. Thank you for your reply, Nick. I did exactly what you told me in points #1 and #2. Apparently the problem is with duplicated subcategories names because I have the following categories structure: CD -->LongPlay -->Maxi/EP Vinyl -->LongPlay -->Maxi/EP Unfortunately I would like to keep that categories tree to make browsing easier for my buyers (the same structure under both, CD and Vinyl categories) and to make the categories tree looks professional. Is there any way to distinguish duplicated subcategories based on what parent categories they are in? I am 100% sure that there are many people who would be glad to see such feature available. It may be a bit easier with "Security Fix and Added Feature" url_rewrite.php modification by dynamoeffects (from 8 Nov 2005) as it adds whole categories path of the product to its url. www.mysite.com/category2/product-name/ <--- default layout www.mysite.com/category1/category2/product-name/ <--- dynamoeffects's layout Best regards, Piotr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
