Jon, I am desperately in need of help. We have been using your fantastic CDSEO Pro on two of our site, it is one software we can not do without, however, 1&1 updated their server environment this morning, and since our CDSEO Pro created links do not work. I have sent a ticket through your website, however, I'm also turning to this forum in desperation in case anyone else is on 1&1 who may have had similar problem.

Is anyone else who uses 1&1 had similar problem since they updated server environment? Currently all CDSEO created pages shows error 500.

Here's an example page,

First think - you should immediatelly turn off CDSEO so your site can work with dynamic urls.
Second - contact 1&1 about this issue as it is most likely to be a server issue and not CDSEO
Third thing to do - move away from 1&1. They are not good for XC or ecommerce at all

Steve, thank you. CDSEO Pro is now disabled, and site is working on dynamic urls. I will give 1&1 a call to see what may have gone wrong. Very annoying as my google feed uses CDSEO pro html links, amongst everything else and to be honest, I would like CDSEO Pro to be working once again sooner than soon. Just waiting for WebsiteCM to reply through their support pages.

My first guess is that they don't have mod_rewrite enabled after the update. It would be easier to tell if they looked at the apache error logs.

I also agree that 1&1 aren't the best hosts for ecommerce.

Hi Jon, I took your advice and left the secondary url blank. When i try to auto populate it, nothing happens and now i have 29 categories without a custom CDSEO url. (although my site does show the correct url)

Second issue that puzzles me is that Bing get the site map but it does not crawl the pages so i need to resubmit it manually.
no results from ask.com ping it remains blank.

Thanks.

Looks like you are using Pro V1.6.2, Im not sure if that version is compatible with php 5.3
You probably should upgrade to the latest release.

Hi,

I've been using this version since upgrading to php 5.3.
and everything working smoothly apart this code. I would like to remove this code only for cosmetic matter.

Does CDSEO prop allow meta description symbols ? - is it just a case of typing in the code ? - does CDSEO recognise them ?

I'm trying to change the 'company name' in page titles auto-populated by cdseo.

I used following instructions as provided in knowledgebase.
---------------------------------------------
Open modules/cdseolinks/cdseo_config.php

FIND:
?>


BEFORE ADD:
// WCM - Customization to replace company name in page title
// Be sure to change "New Title" to the text you want to appear
if ($cdseopage == 'auto-population' OR $_GET['cdseopage'] == 'auto-population')
db_query("UPDATE wcm_cdseo set cdseoTitle = replace(cdseoTitle,'- " . trim($config[Company][company_name]) . "','- New Title')");
// / WCM - Customization to replace company name in page title
---------------------------------------------

I applied auto-population again after following above instructions. However the company name did not change in page titles.

Anybody tried this? Appreciate help.

EDIT: This works with newly added products only. However does not work for existing ones.

Anybody has any clue to get this work for existing product titles?

Thank you.
