[CONTRIBUTION] Ultimate SEO URLs v2.1 - by Chemo

[ammsimon 1]

excuse me for "robot".
the urls work very well on the site, no problems.
This is googlebot, msnbot ...
They visit the url re-write by adding the ID in addition, as on my example
It's weird

Thank you.

If you are using a sitemap, take a look at it to make sure the url's are correct. If it is one you generated from some external site, it was probably not created correctly.

Someone posted a similar type problem just a few posts back from yours.

You need to find where in your script it is generating these parameters and then fix it, by adding code possibly. Even if the problem is already fixed / removed, google will continue to crawl the URLs indefinitely, until you put a 301 redirect on URLs of that type.

A quick fix for Google would be to ignore those parameters in webmaster tools, MSN also has an ignore parameter tool.

Thank you for your answers.

My canonical tags are ok, pagination too (page2, 3 ..
If I have to make 301 individual ad tags it's about 1500 line on my htaccess. aie, aie, aie in french !

In htaccess the 301 test redirects as below do not work

RewriteRule ^my-product-name-p-796.html?products_id=796.html$ https://www.mysite.com/my-product-name-p-796.html

Redirect permanent /my-product-name-p-796.html?products_id=796.html https://www.mysite.com/my-product-name-p-796.html

I think I'll leave like this

It is probably not important to redirect these urls as I expect they work ok. However, they almost certainly come from your site, likely to be from a coding error.

You can find out where the links are being created using the internal links report in Google search console. If you want some help with this, create a separate topic and I can talk you through how to do this.

That's invalid syntax. You cannot redirect query strings like that in htaccess.

You can do more harm than good when experimenting with htaccess like this, my suggestion is not to make entries in htaccess until the code you put is fully tested by someone who knows htaccess rules (which are complex).

Just do this for now.

Phoenix 1.0.1.4   PHP 7.3 Test site on XAMPP

Installed and works correctly, URLs are as I have them on my live site. However at the top of every page I get this.

Warning: "continue" targeting switch is equivalent to "break". Did you mean to use "continue 2"? in D:\********\htdocs\includes\classes\seo.class.php on line 1883

[Jack_mcs 741]

At line 1883 in the includes/classes/seo,class.php filem change

continue;

to

continue 2;
