I am sure this is a simple fix but any product where we have the "&" symbol is causing a page not found error. You can see it here: http://rebelspiritshirts.com/Rebel-Spir ... -Lis-Dress

Because you can't have an & symbol in SEO URLS. Letters & Numbers Only. No spaces either.

I believe there is a work around but cant remember it. I guess I could just take every "&" out and re-import data.

Ampersands (&) have special meaning in URLs so you should definitely remove them.

Thank you all. Thanks to the import/export mod, I can easily modify in excel and re-import new URLS. Thanks again.
