have you tried the generate html catalog feature?

[newattraction]

I'm currently using X-Cart version 4.1.6. I tried to make changes to file include/get_language.php. I can't find the following code in file include/get_language.php (per XC-SEO v1.5 Step IV. of installation instruction).

 
if (!preg_match('!(\.htm(l)?|/$)!',$_tmp["path"])) {
  func_header_location($l_redirect);
 }

Am I doing anything wrong?

Going to compile apache (latest) + php 5x. we'll see what happens.


i'll report on what happened.

Very pleased to report that it works well with the following:

php 5.2.1
Apache/2.2.4 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.4 OpenSSL/0.9.7l DAV/2 PHP/5.2.1

Anyone else not finding the code int he core file? This is a brand new install with the latest download.

III. includes/func/func.core.php
===================
RECOMMENDED:
The following change to "func.core.php" is recommended
to help prevent search engines from picking up Sesson IDs
when visiting X-Cart. This *issue* has been reported to X-Cart
devs and will be fixed in the next release of X-Cart (4.1.4).

NOTE: This change is for X-Cart 4.1.x series. Owners of 4.0.x, please
verify if this alteration is needed.

-----------
Find Code:
-----------

    if (!empty($XCARTSESSID) && !isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[$XCART_SESSION_NAME]) && !eregi("$XCART_SESSION_NAME=", $location)) {
        $location .= ((strpos($location, '?') != false)?'&':'?')."$XCART_SESSION_NAME=".$XCARTSESSID;
    }

------------
Replace With
------------

    if (!empty($XCARTSESSID) && !isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[$XCART_SESSION_NAME]) && !eregi("$XCART_SESSION_NAME=", $location) && !defined('IS_ROBOT')) {
        $location .= ((strpos($location, '?') != false)?'&':'?')."$XCART_SESSION_NAME=".$XCARTSESSID;
    }

This is the closest thing I can find but it looks like it may have already been fixed

    if (!empty($XCARTSESSID) && (!isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[$XCART_SESSION_NAME]) || defined("SESSION_ID_CHANGED")) && !eregi("$XCART_SESSION_NAME=", $location) && !defined('IS_ROBOT')) {
        $added[] = $XCART_SESSION_NAME."=".$XCARTSESSID;
    }

"XC SEO functions similarly to DSEFU, in that it requires 0 template edits, and writes all Product/Manufacturer/Category/Static Page urls to .html page aliases: sitename.com/categoryname.html

In the near future, I intend to release a version that will function similar to the original XC SEO release (and similar to CDSEO), with the ability to rewrite urls using categories as folders: sitename.com/category1/category2/productname.html"


Has this mod been made?

[Chill-Tek]

My host does not use apache, can CDSEO be used with Zeus? If so, does the .htaccess need to changed to comply with Zeus syntax?

Any word on an update for 4.1.6? The code in froogle.php seems to have changed somewhat.

Nevermind. I feel like a dolt. I was looking at the 4.1.x instructions and if one follows the 4.1.3 instructions, the froogle code matches up.

I spoke too soon. The Froogle export seems to work fine, but after uploading the bulk listing file, there are errors from Google Base complaining of a possible missing delimiter. I'm not much of a coder, but I'll see if I can figure it out and post the modules/froogle.php part of the mod for 4.1.6.

Cheers,
Jason

Just a minor change in the modification for modules/Froogle/froogle.php for X-Cart 4.1.6:

-----------
Find Code:
-----------

if ( !defined('XCART_SESSION_START') ) { header("Location: ../../"); die("Access denied"); }

------------
After, Add
------------

############################################################
if (!empty($active_modules["XC_SEO"])) {
	include $xcart_dir."/modules/XC_SEO/loader.seo.php";
}
# END SEO

This next part is the part with the small change:

-----------
Find Code:
-----------

			# Post string
			$post = func_froogle_convert($product['product'], 80)."\t".
				func_froogle_convert($product['descr'], 65536)."\t".
				$froogle_location.constant("DIR_CUSTOMER")."/product.php?productid=".$product['productid']."\t".
				$tmbn."\t"

------------
Replace With
------------

				$post = func_froogle_convert($product['product'], 80)."\t".
					func_froogle_convert($product['descr'], 65536)."\t".
					$froogle_location.constant("DIR_CUSTOMER")."/".$prod_url."\t";
			}else{
				$post = func_froogle_convert($product['product'], 80)."\t".
					func_froogle_convert($product['descr'], 65536)."\t".
					$froogle_location.constant("DIR_CUSTOMER")."/product.php?productid=".$product['productid']."\t";
			}
			$post .= $tmbn."\t".
# End SEO

This is working on my store. The changes to includes/func/func.core.php seem to be unnecessary in 4.1.6. The includes/get_language.php file is different in 4.1.6 than it was in 4.1.3. I don't have the language selector enabled on my site, so I can't confirm the effect of not modifying that file.

Hope this helps someone.
