htaccess
zeldalee:
Hello,
Is this right that I have two htaccess files one that is .htaccess and one that is htaccess.txt? the .htaccess file size is 4321, htaccess.txt is 2800. I did enable seo urls but they are still php.
When you say that if the site is installed in a subdomain to add /subfolder/ is that the folder that the site is installed in, and do I add the name of the file instead of the /subfolder/
It's probably so simple that I don't get it :) :) :)

Hello.
htaccess.txt file is default file provided with AbanteCart installation you should manually rename it to .htaccess
Your current .htaccess is suppose to be placed automatically by your hosting

Thank you for that info,
Now when a sub domain that the cart is installed in. it looks like this store.xxxxxxxxxxx.com/. Is this why I am having problems with the seo urls working? I noticed that the manual states about added to rewrite in htaccess /subfolder/ Do I just add that info or should I give that my name of the folder the cart is installed in? I really don't underatand how to edit a htaccess file.

I believe you have some misunderstanding of subdomain and subfolder (or subdirectory).
a primary domain abc.com
a subDOMAIN would be 123.abc.com the 123. in front of the primary domain
A subfolder would be abc.com/123 the 123 at the end of the primary domain.
you can also have a subfolder in a subdomain 123.abc.com/store
If you have an installation in a subdirectory abc.com/store
Edit file .htaccess If abantecart is installed in yourdomain/ subfolder change configuration line
RewriteBase / to RewriteBase /subfolder/. # Example: yourdomain.com/store use RewriteBase /store/ # Important to have / at the end of the line.
and rename your .htaccess.txt file to .htaccess - note the . (dot) at the beginning must remain.
