License

---------------------------------------------------------

You may use this mod on your cube cart without purchasing a license if you leave the search engine friendly link on the footer intact. Removing the link will violate the license. If you wish for the link to be removed you must purchase a license. The license purchased is for cube cart(s) running on a SINGLE domain name.

NOTE!! This license for the mod is in NO WAY affliated with cube cart or Devellion Ltd at all!!!

I suggest you download the mod and install it and only if you are happy with the results and wish to remove the search engine friendly link at the footer then consider purchasing a license for the mod!

To obtain license go to

http://www.intimatewear.com.au/cc3_mods/

Select if you want the mod only OR the mod + installation. Then contact me on my email and provide me with the domain names of both your live and test server (if different from localhost or 127.0.0.1) and I will send you a license copy without the link in the footer.

NOTE!! If you decide to select the mod only option. Please install the mod first to make sure it is working and you are happy with it BEFORE you decide to buy a license. Licenses are NON refundable!!!

Requirements

---------------------------------------------------------

Your cube cart must be running on Apache (Windows or Linux)

Your apache does NOT need to support the RewriteRule for this mod anymore, infact your apache

does not need to support .htaccess files at all for this mod to work.

Features

---------------------------------------------------------

* URLS in cube cart are easy for humans to read

* URLS in cube cart are easy for search engine to spider

* PHP sessions are killed if the user agent is identified as a search engine

* Large list of known spiders. Taken from the OsCommerce project

* Boxes such as shopping cart and sessions are hidden if the user agent is identified as a search engine

These links have redir parameters tagged to the URLs which can exhaust a spider because of the infinite

amount of links its creates.

As of version 2.0

* Product and category names appear within the URL

* Will strip dangerous characters from the product/category when generating the url

* Does not require the RewriteRule for this mod to work

* Cube cart can be in a folder other than the root directory, no special mods required for this.

As of version 3.0

* Fixed bug with currency and language dropdown boxes

* Fixed bug with search

* Fixed bug with print form

* Fixed bug with more images

* Fixed other miscellaneous bugs

* Added admin on/off search engine friendly url switch

* Displays category names within the title bar just like the products.

As of version 3.1

* Fixed bug where if a product had options, the buy button from within a category jumped to the homepage

* Added switch to admin so user can now specify whether their server supports .htaccess files and the ForceType keyword.

* Merged up mod to cube cart 3.0.2 files.

Instructions

---------------------------------------------------------

* Back up your cube cart before doing anything!

* If you have a fresh install of cube cart version 3.0.2 then

simply overwrite the files in your cube cart with the files in the zip file. NOTE! Make sure your cube cart is installed correctly and working before you apply this mod!

* If you have made ANY mods to your cube cart or your cube cart is NOT version 3.0.2 then I suggest you use WinMerge and

merge the search engine mods to your cube cart files. All changes are clearly marked

with a comment to make it easy to identify what to merge. PLEASE NOTE!! If you have previously

installed an older version of this MOD, then I suggest you undo all changes before applying this MOD.

Easiest way is to do a diff between your cubecart and the original version of your cubecart and

revert back all search engine friendly mods. If you do not know how to use winmerge or merge software DO NOT even attempt to

install this on your modded cubecart. Get someone to do it for you! I cannot provide any support if you decide to install the mod yourself.

* Download Xenu Link from http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html, use this to check your cube cart. Point to the

homepage. There should be a finite amount of pages crawled and hopefully no URLs with

question marks in them. If you get a finite amount of pages and all links are Ok, congratulations

your cube cart is search engine friendly!

* If you require someone to install this mod on your cubecart, then please visit http://www.intimatewear.com.au/cc3_mods/

* After moding your cube cart. Go to Store config -> General Settings in your admin panel. Scroll down and select YES for search engine friendly URL.

* Please select YES to my server supports .htaccess files. Then browse your shop and see if there are any page errors. If there is, turn this option off.

Problems

---------------------------------------------------------------

1) If you can't get this mod working on your shop. I suggest to install a test cart that is a clean

fresh install of cube cart 3.0.2 then apply this mod. If that works perphaps the merge to your cube cart might not

have been 100% correct.

2) If you notice something odd/bug about your cube cart's behaviour. Turn off search engine friendly URLs from the admin panel

and try again. If it happens still it will most likely be a cube cart bug.

3) If you think it is a genuine search engine friendly mod bug, please test it on my test cart http://www.intimatewear.com.au/testcart if it happens there too, email me the details of the bug.

Disclaimer

---------------------------------------------------------

BACK UP your cube cart and try the mod first on a non active cube cart. I am

not responsible for any loss of data or any thing else for that matter. It is

your choice to add this mod to your cube cart and you do so at your own risk.
