Trying to create SEO-urls? Fed up with manually needed to fill in a SEO-keyword? This script is ideal for you when already have already have populated your database with products, categories and information pages. It's not an extension, it's a simple tool that generates all SEO-keywords for your products, categories and information pages if you wish so. It uses the same SEO-keyword technique used in my previous topic about automate SEO-keyword. Now it came to me that it might be a bit of struggle if you already have a populated database with a lot of products/categories.
That's what this script is for. Deal with the data that has not yet a URL-alias. It's an addition to my previous topic. I am aware that there are extensions also capable of doing the same trick, but I found this more simple and effective - no need to install an extension, if you can populate the URL-alias with a simple trick. I do recommend you have either a auto-SEO generator to will handle this in the future.
Afterwards, feel free to delete it from your server. No need to pollute your admin directory with files you won't use more than once.

How it works?
It has three functions:

products - creates SEO-keywords for all products in your database
categories - creates SEO-keywords for all categories in your database
information - creates SEO-keywords for all information pages in your database

The script will handle all your products and tries to find a match in the URL-alias table. If there is, no action will be taken. If not, it will convert your product-name, category-name or information pagetitle to a SEO-friendly URL.

Code
Paste the following code in a file and call it "seo-links.php". Upload it to your admin directory and acces it directly, meaning: http://www.yourdomain.com/admin/seo-links.php
From there it explains itself.

Code: Select all

<?php

require_once('config.php');
require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'startup.php');

// Registry
$registry = new Registry();

// Loader
$loader = new Loader($registry);
$registry->set('load', $loader);

// Database
$db = new DB(DB_DRIVER, DB_HOSTNAME, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD, DB_DATABASE);
$registry->set('db', $db);

function seoURL($str) {
    $str = preg_replace('/[^a-zA-Z0-9]+/', '-', $str);
    $str = trim($str, '-');
    $str = strtolower($str);
            
    return $str;
}

Hi, this is a great tool. Thx!

But, when I am about to update all my products I get an error:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 24 bytes) in ../system/database/mysql.php on line 29

Also, would it be possible to change so that it fetches 'name' with a different language?

Posted: **Wed Sep 07, 2011 11:28 pm**

Change your memory limit in your php.ini file. I've already added the sleep-function. Afterwards, change it back to its default.
I am not sure how many products you're storing, but if you could tell me that, I could try and simulating it and if needed, come with a proper adjustment.

Nice tool, worked really well. Inserted everything correctly and quickly. I am surprised that this post does not have more comments. Thanks for sharing.

Can this be done for these pages as well ?

I loved this code it saved me so much time!

I would also like it if you were able to update it for the above pages as that would just tidy up the last few urls on my list.

Great work again!

It's real nice getting some great support - even it took quite some while.

It's most certainly possible, but it gets a little bit more complicated with all the different actions Opencart uses.

Right now I am bit overloaded with work and studies. If one reads this, he/she is welcome to add the code needed for this.

Once again, I truly appreciate the support and it should motivate me in the near future to work something out.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2012 8:58 am**

wow thank you so much for this I had to create an account to say thanks!!! you saved me hours and hours of searching to find a solution to this!

* Just out of curiosity I have everything in working order i think and something seems to stop the url from making it's was into my browser url bar..

I can see the url generated by the vqmod in admin > product > data > seo keywaord - (autoseolinks.xml installed) which i always leave blank as it's a life saver for creating automatic seo url...

But for some reason I had to come searching for something like this as the urls were not being written to the db for some random reason.. I susspect the vqmod is to blame but no updates or additions to the site could have caused the urls to revert back to (id=21) ratehr than the seo url they were when the vqmod was working... Any ideas guys?

Posted: **Wed Apr 04, 2012 2:00 pm**

Just in case anyone is interested, I've uploaded a (commercial) extension that I built for a client a while ago that does a very similar thing.

It also has a few nice extras, such as:

Increments keywords in the event of duplicate names to prevent problems with collisions.
Generates keywords for Manufacturers.
Replaces ampersand symbols (&) with "and", rather than just stripping them out.
It installs as a proper module, so you (or your client) can use it as often as is needed.

Hopefully these bits make it worth paying a small price for

.
You can download it from the official extension store: http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... on_id=5758

Any feedback/comments/questions appreciated.

Hi Kartoffelz,

I downloaded your script and loved it. It worked brilliantly and not to mention saved me what could of been hours manually inputting the seo url for each product.

Now on to what I came here for. I have heavily modified the script for several purposes.

First off I wanted to make the script more intuitive and easy to navigate.
Second I wanted to add updating URL aliases for products with changed names
Lastly I wanted to format it with tables and make it pretty

I am well over half way done and will be posting shortly.

Posted: **Wed Aug 08, 2012 1:28 am**

Ok I finished it, check it out at http://valleyhardwareinc.com/admin/seo-links.php

Main difference from original is that I formatted it to make it nicer looking and added a table. Also it will update url_aliases if the product/category/information name has changed. (Not everyone will like this, I can remove but it's just for me mainly). Also added support for Manufacturers and changing & to and.

Amazing Script i re done my who open cart with this thanks 4000+

I have edited product seo link part of the script, and added a quick way to avoid duplicate product seo url's, it tries to find the model and puts that after the name if it and find it, otherwise it will use a number.

// Database
$db = new DB(DB_DRIVER, DB_HOSTNAME, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD, DB_DATABASE);
$registry->set('db', $db);

function seoURL($str) {
    $str = preg_replace('/[^a-zA-Z0-9]+/', '-', $str);
    $str = trim($str, '-');
    $str = strtolower($str);

    return $str;

Does this code work for the latest releases ( 1.5.5.1 and 1.5.6)? The date of the latest post is one year old and I seemed to get errors when I tried it on 1.5.5.1. Using the code submitted by willem on 10/25/2012 I got a 4,000+ line results on products all looking like this:

Match found for 2731). No action taken.
---------------
Match found for 2732). No action taken.
---------------
Match found for 2733). No action taken

I had similar results on categories.

Thanks for this. I was planning to write a script to do something similar tonight.
Now I don't need to. Maybe I can use the time to make something else to contribute as a free mod instead - any suggestions? What would help someone out?? Sensible suggestions only, please...

First of all I must say great thanks for the effort to all of you!

I wanted to know is there a chance to modify the script a bit so it works for other languages too? e.g. Latvian?
like this engine http://speakingurl.com/#tryme
to convert non english letters to english letters

because from: sildoša-sega
I get sildo-sa-sega instead of sildosa-sega

Can any one know how to remove auto building h2 in the product description.

Posted: **Sun Aug 31, 2014 9:36 pm**

Thanks for a great script!

I will add to the above posts about needing to generate multi-language urls or at least in a different language than english. I run with Swedish as default but the urls were anyway generated in English.

Should be a quick-fix in the code right?

thanks

Awesome! Does this still work in 1.5.6.x? I don't really wanna try it if there are known issues

Thanks a bunch
