If you implement a 301 redirect from http to https then it will be fine. Google will understand it as the same pages.

Anyone figure out how to make this all work in V4.2.x… We still cannot. Sure we can get the pages to load https yet the SEO stuff doesn't work… Submitted a request for them to update the knowledge base but who knows when that will happen…
http://kb.cs-cart.co…tps-whole-store
as you can see there is SEO changes that need attention in V 3… Assume there is something in V4.2.x that needs changed also.
Come On Cs-Cart… We need a little faster responses. Those of us who are trying to stay ahead of the game need the support that is expected.

Hey,
Did you get it to work? I added the code, but the page will load. Let me know if you got it to work?
Thank you

Yes we are running full HTTPS://
Don't forget to fix sitemap issues and nofollow meta's
sorry, I tried the code, but the pages will not load for me, did you use this code;
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.)$ https://www.your_domain.com/$1 [R,L,NE]
The only thing I need to change there is just my domain name right?
Did I add it to the right place?
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.mydomain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.)$ [url=“http://www.mydomain.com/$1”]http://www.mydomain.com/$1[/url] [L,R=301]
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} libwww-perl.
RewriteRule . – [F,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^192.40.114.96
RewriteRule (.*) [url=“http://www.mydomain.com/$1”]http://www.mydomain.com/$1[/url] [R=301,L]
Pleas note that RewriteBase setting is obsolete use it only in case you experience some problems with SEO addon.
Some hostings require RewriteBase to be uncommented
Example:
Your store url is [url=“http://www.yourcompany.com/store/cart”]http://www.yourcompany.com/store/cart[/url]
So “RewriteBase” should be:
RewriteBase
[color=#ff0000]RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [url=“https://www.mydomain.com/$1”]https://www.mydomain.com/$1[/url] [R,L,NE][/color]
RewriteRule ^sitemap.xml$ ./index.php?dispatch=xmlsitemap.view [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !.(png|gif|ico|swf|jpe?g|js|css)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . index.php?sef_rewrite=1 [L,QSA]
#AddType application/x-httpd-php54 php54
#AddHandler application/x-httpd-php54 .php
Do not use cs-carts suggestion… Unless you want to lose your link juice… Need the 301 redirect in there…
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [url=“https://www.carstickersdecals.com/$1”]https://www.your-site.com/$1[/url] [R=301,L,NE]
Here are all the fixes for SEO and Sitemap generation…
[quote name='CarStickersDecals' timestamp='1419779640' post='201132']
Our experiences…
If you don't fix this you'll be telling search engines not to index you…
Indexing Changes
remove the following line
in the following files.
/design/themes/basic/templates/addons/seo/addons/hooks/meta.post.tpl
/var/themes_repository/basic/templates/addons/seo/hooks/index/meta.post.tpl
/var/themes_repository/responsive/templates/addons/seo/hooks/index/meta.post.tpl
And if your using the SEO add-on add the following to your robots.txt
this will stop indexing of your cart and checkout pages.
Disallow: /index.php
Also fix the sitemap generation…
Open the app/addons/google_sitemap/func.php and replace:
if (count($languages) == 1) {
$links[] = fn_url($link, 'C', 'http', CART_LANGUAGE);
} else {
foreach ($languages as $lang_code => $lang) {
$links[] = fn_url($link . '&sl=' . $lang_code, 'C', 'http', $lang_code);
}
}
With this
if (count($languages) == 1) {
$links[] = fn_url($link, 'C', 'https', CART_LANGUAGE);
} else {
foreach ($languages as $lang_code => $lang) {
$links[] = fn_url($link . '&sl=' . $lang_code, 'C', 'https', $lang_code);
}
}
And
$location = Registry::get('config.http_location');
with
$location = Registry::get('config.https_location');
[/quote]
In the following instead of removing the line…
/design/themes/basic/templates/addons/seo/addons/hooks/meta.post.tpl
/var/themes_repository/basic/templates/addons/seo/hooks/index/meta.post.tpl
/var/themes_repository/responsive/templates/addons/seo/hooks/index/meta.post.tpl
replace with
I see that cs-cart updated its knowledge base now to reflect the 301 redirect…
Also as long as you are using the SEO addon …
Add the following line to your robots.txt
Disallow: /index.php
All of the above is everything we did to get it working…
We've been running that way for 4 months now…
No issues…
Thank you very much, I will go ahead and make the changes now. Will update 
Don't forget this fix… For versions 4.2.4 and below. Supposed to be fixed in 4.3.1

Probably a cache issue, did you clear the cache
John
Yup. Manually delete the cache and verify changes in app/addons/google_sitemap/func.php

What do I look for in func.php?
I think I might have got it to work.
Thank you guys for your help.

[/quote]
No, not yet. Don't really know how to do that yet.
Just another thought on this…what if you are just going Live with a site now that has never been crawled, does it still need the redirect 301, as no pages are indexed yet, ?
