Re: Trying to perfect SES urls - Integrating Coldbox with Cartweaver 3
Actually you know what, I think we already have something similar to this but
we would like to remove the value instead of using the name and value in the
url.
Eg. instead of http://www.ourwebsite.com/product-name-sku-01 we'd like
http://www.ourwebsite.com/product-name

RE: cfquery multiple column search
You need to verify that the search terms you are providing for that column are numeric. The cfqueryparam does that but returns an error when it finds a problem. It's up to you to make sure that you are providing the proper type for the columns you are querying. In this case if the search terms are not numeric then you want to skip the column all together. You need to check that it is both numeric and an integer.

Re: Trying to perfect SES urls - Integrating Coldbox with Cartweaver 3
Hi Jon, that's really interesting and thank you for the advice!
I had an idea that something like this would be required, it's just setting up
the right system to accommodate.
Do you freelance? Would you be interested in helping me out on this project? It
is somewhat outside my area of comfort!
Thanks,

Re: Trying to perfect SES urls - Integrating Coldbox with Cartweaver 3
Matt,
Though Im a huge fan of CB, heres really no need for Coldbox, if all you want
is the SES URL functionality, plus CW isnt really designed in a way that plays
well with frameworks. I had a CartWeaver site set up a few years ago with SES
urls. The steps to modify are, basically, as follows:
1) create a unique slug/tag column on all of your categories and products and
populate those using the a regex slugification of category/product name.
(Youll need to add the form field in the admin for the cats and products as
well - or you can auto-create it on save and edit it later)
2) create a tag lookup function for categories and products that pulls the
slug, based on the ID
3) call that function from your cat/subcat/production landing pages using an
if(isNumeric(id)){
//Look up your tag from the id and redirect here...
}
and use a 301 redirect to the SES url page - this will allow all of the CW
generated links to resolve correctly, or you can replace the id in the url with
the slug variable.
The above assumes you have mod_rewrite or are using one of the IIS rewrite
options.
Youll need to create some sort of redirect rules in place to pretty up the
extension pages and handle the category->subcategory->product links (name/value
pairs work well here), but there are all sorts of examples and tutorials for
mod-rewrite, ISAPI rewrite and IIS URL Rewriting out there.
HTH,
Jon

Trying to perfect SES urls - Integrating Coldbox with Cartweaver 3
Hi guys, some advice or guidance would be great on this please. We are using Cartweaver 3 and have basic redirects setup for our category pages, product pages and brand pages. In my opinion the redirects are very logical and work well, however we have been advised by our SEO company that we now need to tidy the links up making them just contain pertinent information rather than containing id's etc. Also the ability to add forward slashes to each level of category apparently is important too. So after researching around it seems Coldbox with SES urls is the way to go, my question is is this possible with Cartweaver and if so will it require a complete rebuild of the site or can I integrate it without much disruption? FYI Our first level categories go to subcat.cfm Our second levels go to subsubcat.cfm Our third level categories go to results.cfm and our product pages go to details.cfm I am a novice when it comes to Coldfusion, I understand the language but I'm not sure where to start with this.
