Why do the SEO urls contain en-gb folder now?
Is there an easy way to remove this? For example:
.com/en-gb?route=common/home
.com/en-gb/catalog/desktops/pc
to just:
.com/
.com/pc

Please provide more details if you want help here: OC version, extensions used, website URL
In a standard OpenCart 4 the default language isn't shown s part of the URL.

4.0.1.1
No extensions
I created a multi store in settings, could this be the reason why it's using language in the URL?
It's also using product:
en-gb/product/tablet/samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1
I have removed the multi store and still using language, etc in url.

I see, getting the same with SEO Urls enabled on the master branch.
I don't see a way to change this, unless the core gets modified to handle SEO keywords the way it used to be in OpenCart 3.
BTW.: There's still a bug in the SEO Url editor, see

any update on this, this is terrible seo practice pushing your relavant url content deeper down the tree

Just a quick try, haven't tested a lot.
Open file /system/library/url.php and find the following code:
Code: Select all
if (!$js) {
return str_replace('&', '&', $url);
} else {
return $url;
}
And, replace with the following code:
Code: Select all
if (!$js) {
return str_replace('en-gb/', '', str_replace('&', '&', $url));
} else {
return str_replace('en-gb/', '',$url);
}

Go to Design > SEO url. Find the en-gb one and delete that little sucker.

this didnt work, it did get rid of the en-gb, but it left the un-seo query such as /product/product_name?language=en-gb
if i just clear the keyword, its closer, but you get 2 //

ok i worked out that you can fix the // bug easily , as found that it was intended to be a valid option to leave keyword blank to hide a parameter

The "/en-gb" in SEO URLs is likely due to language or regional settings. You can often fix this by adjusting the default language in your OpenCart settings to remove the language code from URLs. This should result in cleaner URLs like "example.com" and "example.com/pc".

You missed the point, there is no clear way to remove it, that is the default language...
