Clean URLs in 5.2.5
Ever since 5.2.5, cleanURLs are working differently. Instead of this:
domain.com/category/subcategory/product.html it is now: domain.com/product.html?category_id=10 Why did this change? It is less aesthetically pleasing and less functional for the consumer. Is it a setting that can be changed back? Or let the cleanURL field contain forward slashes?

Re: Clean URLs in 5.2.5
Well it is using the clean url I specify for the "product.html" part. It's just not including the category path; instead it adds "?category=" after the .html.
Clean urls are working for the category pages.

Re: Clean URLs in 5.2.5
This category parameter is used for proper navigation and its addition is intended. Could you please let me know why this part should not be there?
It will not cause the duplicated content problem, because canonical tag of the link Code:
will point it to Code:
Please, let me know. Thank you. Tony

Re: Clean URLs in 5.2.5
Hi Tony,
Thank you for your reply. Yes it should point to http://www.meditools.com.au/shop/sheep-tail-docking-banding-elastrator.html Kindly let me know how to do it. Another question, I was trying to edit front page text "This demo online store..." but when I saved it a blank page appeared and when I refreshed the page it didn't changed. Although I have entered the registration key. Please advice about this too. Regards, Umar

Re: Clean URLs in 5.2.5
Hi Tony,
--Front Page Yes I'm trying edit FrontPage text from admin Catalog>Frontpage. --Clean URLs I'm using 4.1.10 with CDSEO on another site, it creates clean URLs (without any categoryid) then why 5.2.5 can't. Here's what Google is saying about clean URLs --------------------------------------------------------------- A site's URL structure should be as simple as possible. Consider organizing your content so that URLs are constructed logically and in a manner that is most intelligible to humans (when possible, readable words rather than long ID numbers). For example, if you're searching for information about aviation, a URL like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aviation will help you decide whether to click that link. A URL like http://www.example.com/index.php?id_sezione=360&sid=3a5ebc944f41daa6f849f 730f1, is much less appealing to users. ---------------------------------------------------------------
