Hi,

I am preparing the launch of a new site which is currently hosted in a sub-folder https://www.example.org/2022/

When I launch the analysis of the pages, nothing comes up and I only have errors knowing that I have set up the .htaccess file correctly.

How to solve this problem please?

Regards

Hervé

Hi

I can't say much without more information:

1 - I can't reach the site as it's under htaccess password, so you need to set the correct username and password as well in 4SEO

2 - Is the site blocked through robots.txt or with Joomla robots global configuration? that would prevent 4SEo to crawl it, at least with default settings

3 - The main site address must be https://www.example.org/2022/, not https://www.example.org/

4 - What are the errors listed (10 of them)? Have you looked at the Errors pages to understand which page is blocked?

Please provide username and password so that I can at least see the site myself.

Best regards

HI,

Website is protect by .htaccess :
Username : example
Password : example

You can access to admin : https://www.example.org/2022/administrator/
Username : example
Password : example

Currently I am working in a sub-folder to complete my site but next week the site will of course be on the final domain https://www.example.org

I let you check my settings and get back to me.

Regards

Hervé

Hi

This seems to work ok, there's been about 50 pages analyzed. Are you missing some?

Hi again

Ah actually, I can see a potential issue as you have not entered username/password as described in my first response:

Hi,

I hadn't seen that this solution existed to indicate the htaccess credentials.

On the other hand, can you tell me if my configuration is correct for the launch of the site?

Best regards

Hi

Your configuration is something you decide on, based on your requirements. The default values will certainly be fine for most sites and I'd recommend using them unless you have specific needs.

The only "Technical" configuration required is that the "Main site address" is changed to the live site (ie remove the /2022 at the end).

One thing I noticed at this stage is you have a few URLs listed with ?Itemid=xx at the end. For instance, if I search for  all the "ontact" pages:

So this makes me think that you have made various adjustements and changes in configuration while developing the site and 4SEO picked up these URLs, and then you fixed the problem but the Analysis has not been reset and restarted. So you have data that are mostly from development.

Also I can see you have pages waiting for analysis ("Pending URL" on the Pages page), which is expected as you do not have traffic on the site (it's protected from visitors) and it's visitors that trigger automated background analysis.

So I would suggest you:

- Reset analysis (Pages | Settings | Site analysis)

- Run a full manual analysis (Analyze now button on the Pages page toolbar).

This should make sure all the transient data from development is removed and analysis is performend on live, current website content.
