cart rewrite

hello,

I would ENTERING htaccess file to rewrite the url of the file cart

Example: monsite.com/cart.php/?gid=1 in monsite.com/hosting.xlm

Thank you in advance for your help

Is there any people who had some luck with rewriting the cart? I see a lot of whmcs pages with cart rewrite...

Someone who would like to share?

There are two possible approaches. Let's suppose that the group name that you want to rewrite is Hosting. Add this rewrite rule in your .htaccess file.

RewriteRule ^Hosting /cart.php?gid=1[L]

Your example.com/cart.php?gid=1 is accessible also from example.com/Hosting. Now here comes the boring part. All links (prevalently a href and form action) in the template of your WHMCS cart still point to the old URL and this is not good for two reasons:

1. Avoid duplicate contents
   
2. Keep visitors on the same URL
   

You have to open all your templates and look for lines like this one:

cart.php?gid={$smarty.get.gid}

Replace with:

{$productgroup.name}

This approach is very basic and manual-made. The second approach is to make all this stuff automatically with a script but it takes more time.

Awesome. I will definately try this and return!

thanks!

Hello everyone,

Already to start I wanted to say a big thank you.

Your system works very well, I had my last question.

How to do a rewrite on the direct link to the basket.

Example: https://www.mydomain.com/cart.php?a=add&pid=1

in

https://www.mydomain.com/hebergement-mutualizes.

A big thank you

Hello,

Thank you for your input on this. I am trying to accomplish the same thing as the OP. The version of WHMCS I am using is 6.

I was able to get the first step done by updating my htaccess. The friendly URLs work, but like you said, all the links generated in the template files point to the gid url.

The second step is not going as well. When I open the cart tpl files I do not see

{$smarty.get.gid}

what I do see is

href="{$item->getUri()}"

.

Has getUri replaced smarty in v6? Does your solution work in v6?

Thanks!
