One note about the 0.5 release:

404 Errors that are kicked out by the SEO mod are currently just a blank white screen with a short message saying the page does not exist. This will be changed in the next release to a setting that you can point to your own 404 error page of choice (and will default to a prettier error message).

I apologize, somewhere in the process I failed to add this step to the install instructions (I'll update the install instructions after I post this step here):

Open auth.php:
Find

After, Add

I found out what was preventing me from installing 4.1.0, so I've now got a working copy of 4.1.0 installed on my server, and I've successfully installed XC SEO (with minor modifications).

I'm still testing though. I'm working on adding products to the installation so that I can verify product urls are being parsed correctly.

How well is this working on 4.0 now? I'm getting a little anxious. :lol: I changed over from an html store to XCart about a month ago and my rankings are suffering.

Thank you Intel for your efforts!

Well, it looks like this might not be compatible with PHP 5.0.x

telafirma, read through the install instructions once more to make sure you've done everything as detailed. there was a step that had been missing from the install details, that i added in yesterday. seems like the class object isn't being created

or if you'd like me to look at it, i could try to get it working for you. i don't have a php5 dev environment at the moment, so i can't verify whether or not it works under php5 until later

Works now - was missing the part in the auth.php file.

Something that might need to be addresses is the variables that are added after the .html extention or directory names:

designing-web-usability_p67.html?cat=23&page=1
lord-of-the-rings-board-game_p93.html?cat=0&bestseller
books/internet/?sort=price&sort_direction=0

still very indicative of dynamically generated pages and will still create the situation of two URIs pointing to the same content.

Hi all,

Can't seem to get this mod working on X-Cart 4.0.13? any help appreciated, cheers.

Read the first post, the first 2 lines may explain your problems.

do you have any suggestions regarding how the variables could be hidden? I could easily strip them from the url, but there are some situations where the variables would be needed, such as sorting.

one note, the sort directives actually return pages with different content, since they sort the results in a different manner, so there's no content duplication there. the product pages definitely need the variables handled though...

hmm...
