Very nice mod again Phil.

I just tried to install on version 4.1.7 & got following error on sql patch.

PATCH RESULTS

SQL PATCH FAILED AT QUERY:
REPLACE INTO xcart_config VALUES ('commentics_rich_snippets','','','Commentics',10, 'checkbox','','','')

Here is what log says:

The v4.1.x patch worked fine for me, I tested on v4.1.12

Re Rich Snippets - what format does this mod use ?

Microdata , Microformats or RDFa

[PhilJ]

The reviews can be marked-up with any of three formats: microdata, microformats or RDFa. Commentics uses microformats because it is the longest established of the three, it is easy to add to existing HTML, and it is understood by several search engines including Google and Yahoo.

[voodoo1967]

Yep cheers Phil, I read this today from Google re snippets , and saw they recommend Microdata. But if the mod uses all 3 types then - it doesnt really matter which I guess. Will be having a play with this later tonight, are there any gotchas to look out for on 4.2.2x

Hi Phil, I am using CDSEO Pro and I get this error on the product page:

Notice: Undefined index: page in /home/mysite/public_html/modules/cdseolinks/outputfilter.cdseopro.php(305) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d

and it just keeps running on down the page. Are you aware of any incompatibility issues with Website CM's CDSEO Pro and this mod?

It works fine with clean URLs and CDSEO (v1.80 at least).
