SEO URL cannot use the word poker

I have a custom playing card site and am using SEO URL's. They're working fine, but 2 of the Poker Card products give me 403 Forbidden errors when using the word poker in the SEO URL.

Anybody have any ideas why?

Thanks in advance.

have you checked your .htaccess file?

I cannot think of any reason it would key off a word poker. Make sure you are using unique keywords for each deck and that you don't have any spaces or odd characters in them by mistake.

Anybody? This is driving me crazy. I have 2 products in the cart with the word 'poker' that can't be used in the SEO URL. I narrowed it down to the word 'poker' because I tested it with only the word 'poker' in the SEO URL. All other products contain the words, 'Custom-Photo-Playing-Cards' with no errors. Of course, I dropped the SEO URL's for these 2 products until this can be resolved. Attached is a screenshot of Google Webmaster Tools errors. This is crazy. Thanks in advance.

you check if there's a rewrite in your htaccess?

Looked at your site and since the others are working and those 2 are not, I would say there is a problem with their seo urls. Perhaps you have an invisible character or something it in?

I would delete the url you have set for it by hitting ctrl+a to make sure everything is selected and save. Then re-enter the seo url from scratch and save. See if that solves it.

Does anybody from OpenCart Support look at these? This issue amazes me. What does the word poker have to do with a 403 error?

Thanks again in advance.

This is most likely something set up on your server -- it doesn't have anything to do with OpenCart. If you have checked your own htaccess files and there's nothing being restricted there, it's probably some other security software installed on your server, that you may not have control over. You should contact your web host about this issue, and ask them if they can assist.
