Re: no xml sitemap

Thanks to Jon from WebsiteCM (CDSEO) for fixing my problem. I guess security settings in my database were preventing the sitemap installer to work. Jon ran the patch from within phpMyAdmin and got it working for me. Great service Jon!

Your main meta description will come from the X-Cart Admin -> General Settings -> SEO settings. If Google isn't using the text entered it is likely because they think there is text that is more relevant to the person performing the search and will show that instead. You can find more information if you search Google for: Google not using meta description. |

Upgrading our store but can't install the normal CDSEO we had running? Using 4.6.x now, thanks

CDSEO is compatible with 4.6.x but you may need to be sure you are on the latest version which 1.9.6. You can upgrade and/or view the changelog at http://www.websitecm.com/x-cart-mods/cdseo-pro-x-cart-seo.html#tab8

Re: CDSEO Pro - Complete SEO Solution - Custom Urls, Page Titles, Meta Data, Link Anchors
Hi Jon,
I'm using CDSEO on an old x-cart version 4.08. We've deleted some static pages/categories/etc and although it does redirect to "http://www.ourwebsite.com/error_message.php?page_not_found", the header response shows as "302 Moved Temporarily". On our settings page, "Redirect disabled items to homepage when no custom disabled redirect specified" is Disabled. We need the header response to be "404 Not Found". Any suggestions? If necessary, I'll pay to have this fixed. Thanks, Ken

Re: CDSEO Pro - Complete SEO Solution - Custom Urls, Page Titles, Meta Data, Link Anchors
If you disable them then you can use CDSEO to 301 redirect them.
If you delete them then X-Cart's default functionality is to 302 redirect them. You have to go into various files with edits to change this functionality. It might be better to just write 301 redirects into your .htaccess Redirect 301 /old-page.html http://www.example.com/new-page/ |

Re: CDSEO Pro - Complete SEO Solution - Custom Urls, Page Titles, Meta Data, Link Anchors
Hi Jon,
Thanks for the response. That's the issue... I DO NOT want 301/302 redirects on deleted pages/categories/etc. I want them to show as 404 (Not Found). If this is something you could code, please PM me with a price quote. Thanks, Ken

Re: CDSEO Pro - Complete SEO Solution - Custom Urls, Page Titles, Meta Data, Link Anchors
Technically they are 404's and should return 404's. Unfortunately X-Cart does not do this.
The pages are served through pages.php, product.php, etc. which are files that exist so don't throw 404's by default. To change this requires modifying the core code to find where the redirect or message occurs and changing the code to output a 404 header with an accompanying message. I've done this for clients prior but don't have the code at hand and am current booked through till summer sorry! |
