Can't enable SEO Addon in CSCart Ultimate

Store Builder Questions
1

I’ve search the forums and searched Google and haven’t been able to figure out why this won’t work. I’ve enabled this on other CS-Cart Professional installation and this is my first CS-Cart Ultimate installation so I’m not sure if there is something special I need to do. Whenever I click to enable the SEO Addon I receive the following warning:


[quote]SEO-friendly URLs are disabled. Check your web server and URL manipulation engine settings.[/quote]



Below is my .htaccess file in the root of my CS-Cart installation:

<br />
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php<br />
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c><br />
	    RewriteEngine on<br />
	    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !.(png|gif|ico|swf|jpe?g|js|css)$<br />
	    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f<br />
	    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d<br />
	    RewriteRule . index.php?sef_rewrite=1 [L,QSA]<br />
</IfModule><br />

```<br />
<br />
I saw as I was installing the Ultimate Edition that at the end it mentioned something about editing the acme/.htaccess file if I want to use the SEO addon. However I don't know what I need to change in this file:<br />
<br />
```php
<br />
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c><br />
	    RewriteEngine on<br />
	    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ../$1 [L,QSA,E=DOCUMENT_ROOT:%{SCRIPT_FILENAME}]<br />
</IfModule><br />

```<br />
<br />
Any help would be appreciated. <img src="upload://iKNGSw3qcRIEmXySa8gItY6Gczg.gif" class="bbc_emoticon" alt=":grin:">

Did you remove

<br />
if (isset($_REQUEST['version'])) {<br />
die(PRODUCT_NAME . ': version <b>' . PRODUCT_VERSION . ' ' . PRODUCT_TYPE . (PRODUCT_STATUS != '' ? (' (' . PRODUCT_STATUS . ')') : '') . (PRODUCT_BUILD != '' ? (' ' . PRODUCT_BUILD) : '') . '</b>');<br />
}<br />

```<br />
from file init.php<br />
<br />
If yes, add it back and after the seo addon is enabled you can  do everything  <img src="upload://ssa1U17ndImgNZSdwFNmOF2yUgM.png" class="bbc_emoticon" alt=";)"><br />

I’ve followed this and still receiving the error. I know it’s not the server as I have other CS-Cart Professional installations running on this server with the SEO Addon enabled.

I've tried commenting out this code and enabling the Addon and still received the error. I've now uncommented those lined and tried again to no avail.<br />
<br />
However I was able to force it on! I went into addons/seo/schemas/settings/actions.post.php and replaced it with the following:<br />
```php
<br />
<?php<br />

function fn_settings_actions_addons_seo(&$new_value, $old_value)<br />
{<br />
fn_clear_cache();<br />
return true;<br />
}<br />
?><br />

```<br />
<br />
I simply just removed the check and everything is working just fine. <img src="upload://tbe1CncrrOs48cXpHvziOT8r0T3.gif" class="bbc_emoticon" alt=":mrgreen:">

@StevenMattera

I just went to /app/addons/seo/schemas/settings/actions.functions.post.php

and comment the following code at fn_settings_actions_addons_seo

function fn_settings_actions_addons_seo(&$new_value, $old_value){
    // if ($new_value == 'A') {
    //     Http::get(Registry::get('config.http_location') . '/catalog.html?version');
    //     $headers = Http::getHeaders();

//     if (strpos($headers, '200 OK') === false) {
//         $new_value = 'D';
//         fn_set_notification('W', __('warning'), __('warning_seo_urls_disabled'));
//     }
// }


fn_clear_cache();


return true;



}

Thats solved my issue then spent many hours digging.
