I have been working on SEO friendly URLs, and the issue I am having is, no matter what category path I take it ends up displaying all products. With the exception of the "categories.php" (which still has the .PHP extension), all categories are displaying correctly.

Thank you.

Brian

Hi Phil,

That is the correct URL. BTW, I'm a sign maker not an eCommerce website designer, I am very open to any suggestions that will make this site better.

I believe this is an all inclusive list of the thing I've done so far:
----------------------
Added the following to includes.php

// $seodetailurls=TRUE;
// $seocategoryurls=TRUE;
// $detlinkspacechar="-";
// $seocaturlpattern="/category/%s";
// $seoprodurlpattern="/products/%s";
// $seourlsthrow301=TRUE;

Currently remed out because it's not working properly
----------------------
Added the web.config file to the root after changing all .ASP to .PHP
----------------------
Added
"<base href="http<?php if(@$_SERVER['HTTPS']=='on') print 's'?>://www.rockyknobwoodcrafts.com/" />"

to the products.php and categories.php pages just before the closing </head>,
then moved them to inside the <!-- #BeginEditable "doctitle" --> so the CSS would work.
----------------------
Added to the .htaccess

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^category/([^/.]*)/?$ /categories.php?cat=$1 [QSA,nc,L,B]
RewriteRule ^products/([^/.]*)/?$ /products.php?cat=$1 [QSA,nc,L,B]
RewriteRule ^manufacturer/?$ /categories.php?man=all [QSA,nc,L,B]
RewriteRule ^manufacturer/([^/.]*)/?$ /products.php?man=$1 [QSA,nc,L,B]
RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)$ proddetail.php?prod=$1 [QSA,nc,L,B]
</IfModule>

I am mostly certain that is everything I've done. thanks so much for your help.

Hi Phil,

I just changed the includes.php file, it is now like this:

$seodetailurls=TRUE;
$seocategoryurls=TRUE;
$detlinkspacechar="-";
$seocaturlpattern="/category/%s";
$seoprodurlpattern="/products/%s";
// $seourlsthrow301=TRUE;

Hi Brian,
I've just taken a look at your site and the seo urls are working.
If go here https://www.rockyknobwoodcrafts.com/category/ and browse through the products from the categories you'll find they're working fine including the detail pages.
I think what you need to do is update all the menu links with the new appropriate seo urls

Hi Phil,

The URLs look good, but he items in the end, when it should only be listing the products in a certain category, is listing all of the products.

I put the "//" back in and you can see what it si supposed to look like.

Thanks
