An Apache rewrite file is provided for those who run Cubecart 5 on the Apache webserver. But what about those who use a web hosting company with Zeus instead of Apache. Well here’s the script I currently use for my clients. It’s working well for us but I can’t provide any guarantees that it will work for you, so please test first.
To install it simply add the text below into a file and save it as rewrite.script, or download it. Then upload it to the root of your Cubecart 5 site.
RULE_0_START:
# set original URL
set SCRATCH:ORIGINAL_URL = %{URL}
set SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI = %{URL}
# Set Root Relative Path
set SCRATCH:ROOT_REL = /
# don't rewrite certain files
match URL into $ with ^/.*\.(gif|jpg|png|css|js).*$
if matched then
goto END
endif
# check for query string and set accordingly
match URL into $ with ^(.*)\?(.*)$
if matched then
set SCRATCH:QUERY_STRING = $2
set SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI = $1
endif
RULE_0_END:
RULE_1_START:
# prepare to search for file, rewrite if its not found
set SCRATCH:REQUEST_FILENAME = %{SCRATCH:DOCROOT}
set SCRATCH:REQUEST_FILENAME . %{SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI}
# check to see if the file requested is an actual file or
# a directory with possibly an index. don't rewrite if so
look for file at %{SCRATCH:REQUEST_FILENAME}
if not exists then
look for dir at %{SCRATCH:REQUEST_FILENAME}
if not exists then
#remove remove forward slash
match SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI into $ with ^/(.*)$
if matched then
set SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI = $1
endif
#remove .html from the end if it's there.
match SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI into $ with ^(.*)\.html$
if matched then
set SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI = $1
endif
#set BODY = /index.php?seo_path=%{SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI}
#goto END
set SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI = /index.php?seo_path=%{SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI}
goto QSA_RULE_START
#goto END
endif
endif
# if we made it here then its a file or dir and no rewrite
#set BODY = %{SCRATCH:REQUEST_FILENAME}
goto END
RULE_1_END:
QSA_RULE_START:
# append the query string if there was one originally
# the same as [QSA,L] for apache
match SCRATCH:ORIGINAL_URL into % with \?(.*)$
if matched then
#set BODY = %{SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI}&%{SCRATCH:QUERY_STRING}
set URL = %{SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI}&%{SCRATCH:QUERY_STRING}
else
#set BODY = %{SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI}
set URL = %{SCRATCH:REQUEST_URI}
endif
goto END
QSA_RULE_END:
Works great - saves me hassling the client to move away from Namesco!
