retrtrtrytrutru: CDSEO won't remove custom variables such as 'manid' since it assumes there is a good reason for them Try enabling the rewrite base in your .htaccess file to correct the 404.

Seems that the patch needs to be applied whenever I create a product with a "<space>p" in the title. Can I edit CDSEO so that it does not do the "-p" to "_p" replacement? Or do I need to run the patch every time?

Thanks, Steve.

Open your modules/cdseolinks/cdseo_config.php

At the bottom of the file, just before ?> put:

// WCM - Modify _p urls
if ($_GET['cdseopage'] == 'auto-population')
    db_query("UPDATE wcm_cdseo set cdseoUrl = replace(cdseoUrl,'_p','-p')");

Hi Jon.

That didn't fix it. If I add a new product with "<space>p" in the Product Name, then run auto-populate, the url still shows "_p".

Thanks, Steve.

I did but it doesn't work unfortunately, still the same error

Not Found

The requested URL /cdseopro.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Also tried removing everything from my .htaccess file but to no avail. I now have only this in the .htaccess file:

# ------------------------------------
# CDSEO Pro
# ------------------------------------
# This directory index is recommended to replace the
# x-cart default within this .htaccess file
DirectoryIndex home.php index.html index.php

# Enable mod rewrite engine
RewriteEngine On

# .htpasswd protection
# May be required if your htpasswd files are located below document root (i.e. cpanel)
# Remove # at the beginning of this line if your unable to access password protected folders:
ErrorDocument 401 "Unauthorized"

# Some servers require this Options directive to be disabled
# Remove # at the beginning of this line to disable:
#Options -Multiviews

# Some servers require the Rewritebase directive to be enabled
# Remove # at the beginning of this line to enable:
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(payment|admin|provider|partner)/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|js|css|swf|php|ico)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ cdseopro.php
# ------------------------------------
# / CDSEO Pro
# ------------------------------------

Edit, even when I directly type in the URL to the cdseopro.php file in my browser I get a 404 error page, but this page is from the hosting company. I have contacted them if they know what's going on here...

Thanks, Steve.

Can you please submit a support ticket to us with FTP and x-cart admin access, I'll set this up for you and ensure it works at no additional cost.

May sound like a silly question, but are you sure that cdseopro.php was actually uploaded? If your host isn't able to figure out the issue please submit a support ticket with FTP information.

I have correctly edited the /modules/cdseolinks/cdseo_config.php file.

Thanks, Steve.

Thanks Jon, it's not a silly question but I am 100% sure the file was uploaded. I think my hosting company did something because since this morning the links are working. Haven't heard from them what they've changed but I assume they will let me know later today. Now, back to experimenting
