I am running open cart Version 2.3.0.2 and just turned on the SEO friendly URL's. I did not find the default htaccess file that had to be renamed so I found a tutorial that told me to add this to my .htaccess file to get SEO friendly URL's
Code: Select all
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^sitemap.xml$ index.php?route=feed/google_sitemap [L]
RewriteRule ^googlebase.xml$ index.php?route=feed/google_base [L]
RewriteRule ^download/(.*) /index.php?route=error/not_found [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*\.(ico|gif|jpg|jpeg|png|js|css)
RewriteRule ^([^?]*) index.php?_route_=$1 [L,QSA]
OK SEO URL's work very nicely, but only if I fill in the SEO URL field for each Category and also each Product.
I am going to have over 400 products in my store, isn't there a way to have the products URL automatically rewrite according to their name? Or do I have to buy and install a module for this? I don't know if I am missing a setting in my .htaccess or if I need an add on module that gives me this functionality. But it seems silly I have to manually write every category and/or product SEO URL. Of course I would love to be able to manually over-ride for specific categories just not the entire store.
Please advise.
