Default Re: Xuru SEO Mod --> Free SEO Mod

a smarty filter isn't the same as a smarty plugin, so like geckoday already mentioned, the include_once line is required.

I didn't have net access over the weekend, but this morning I was able to finish up some work that I was attempting on geckoday's code

Changes:
  • Replaces accented characters with normal characters, for use in urls
  • Implemented rewritten version of seo.php, which is used to redirect pages to their proper .html structure (similar functionality existed in the original release(s) of the SEO mod, but this seo.php was rewritten for speed)
  • Implemented HTTPS checks to prevent urls from being rewritten when in HTTPS mode (the version geckoday gave me didn't have the HTTPS statements included yet)
  • Implemented fix for multiple hyphens in url
  • Implemented ability to insert a static keyword into every rewritten url (for SoundChoice Store, used the keyword Karaoke). The keyword will not be inserted if it already exists in the url.

I am going to upload the code to the subversion repository in a branched version called "SEO Lite" or something similar. I will post a downloadable archive later this afternoon.

In the meantime, you can see the mod in action on our production website:

Sound Choice Karaoke

I will be looking into removing other possibilities of duplicate urls as mentioned by Jon (such as the js=y/n, printable pages, etc)

Thanks Jon for the reminder

Thanks gecko for your improved rewrite of the original XC SEO mod
