Ok...........next problem
I tried reading the manual and this forum and now my .htaccess has toasted my entire site with a 500 server error
[Sun Aug 16 15:27:39 2009] [alert] [client 66.153.155.157] /home2/thememor/public_html/.htaccess: RewriteRule: bad argument line '^us-navy-personalized-photo-blanket$/ecom-catshow/navyblanketwoven.\\html'\n
my .htaccess file reads
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^ecom-catshow/navyblanketwoven\.html$ http://www.thememoriesplace.com/us-navy … nket\.html [L,R=permanent]
RewriteRule ^us-navy-personalized-photo-blanket$/ecom-catshow/navyblanketwoven.\html
RewriteRule ^store/(.*)-(.*)/(.*)\.html store/index.php?app=$1&ns=$2&ref=$3 [L,PT]
any ideas?

Here is an example from my .htaccess file. This format is working for me. Try getting rid of the "/" in front of ecom-catshow in the second line. Also the backslash "\" at the end of that line needs to be in front of .html
RewriteRule ^ecom-catshow/tugstoys\.html$ http://www.blackdogtactical.com/Dog-Training-Tugs-and-Toys [L,R=permanent] RewriteRule ^Dog-Training-Tugs-and-Toys$ ecom-catshow/tugstoys\.html

I tried to enter the following as you suggested
RewriteRule ^ecom-catshow/navyblanketwoven\.html$ http://www.thememoriesplace.com/us-navy … to-blanket [L,R=permanent]
RewriteRule ^us-navy-personalized-photo-blanket$ ecom-catshow/navyblanketwoven\.html
It came back with the url:
http://www.thememoriesplace.com/store/e … woven.html

I have the HDSEO set to "true"
and the url manager reads:
Clone Update Delete /ecom-cat/navyblanketwoven.html /us-navy-personalized-photo-blanket.html
The url I'm trying to rewrite is
http://www.thememoriesplace.com/store/e … woven.html
and I'm trying to change it to:
http://www.thememoriesplace.com/us-navy … anket.html
or even "store/us-etc
The current .htaccess is
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^ecom-prodshow/navyblanketwoven\.html$ http://www.thememoriesplace.com/us-navy … to-blanket [L,R=permanent]
RewriteRule ^us-navy-personalized-photo-blanket$ ecom-prodshow/navyblanketwoven\.html
RewriteRule ^store/(.*)-(.*)/(.*)\.html store/index.php?app=$1&ns=$2&ref=$3 [L,PT]
I've tried ^store/ecom-prodshow
^/ecom-catshow
and a bunch of other things in the .htaccess file...............and I'm lost.
the path to the main page is
/public_html/store/index.php
however the cart is outside the "public_html" and there is a .htaccess file inside the /ccp7_private
any chance I have the .htaccess file in the wrong location.........mine is inside the public_html where it was put by the server as I did redirects through cpanel for other pages.
Any help would be appreciated.

The cart isn't outside of public_html or it wouldn't be working. What's in the private directory isn't seen or used directly by the web server. You don't want to change the .htaccess file in that directory. Having your changes in the .htaccess in public_html is the correct place for them.

thanks Dave, I didn't think I was in the wrong spot with that file but right now I'm grasping for anything
Offline
It looks like your .htaccess is a mixed bag of rules for the cart location. You use ^ecom-prodshow..., which would be for a cart installed in the web root, but your last line uses ^store... which should be correct for the cart being installed in a subdirectory called 'store'.
Based on what I pulled from another post, I think it would be:
Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^store/ecom-prodshow/navyblanketwoven\.html$ http://www.thememoriesplace.com/store/us-navy-personalized-photo-blanket [L,R=permanent] RewriteRule ^store/us-navy-personalized-photo-blanket$ store/ecom-prodshow/navyblanketwoven\.html RewriteRule ^store/(.*)-(.*)/(.*)\.html store/index.php?app=$1&ns=$2&ref=$3 [L,PT]
In case I screwed it up, I based it on the info at the end of this post:

Thank you Craig..........it works and it gave me back this url
http://www.thememoriesplace.com/store/u … to-blanket
Any idea on how I get it to give me a .html at the end of the url
I only ask because I'm not sure yet how the sitemap and googlebase will handle something without ".html" at the end
Offline
Site maps and Google shouldn't need or care about a .html and, in fact, many people use the HD SEO XMOD specifically to remove .html or anything else.
Offline
I'm convinced Dave.
Thanks to Craig and you I have the module working and I do appreciate all the help with what must have seemed like a million dumb questions. I think Craig had it right..........I was changing so many things that I just kept compounding the problem.

Sorry you ran into so many problems.
If there's one BIG thing I've learned over the years it is to make one change at a time and see what the results are. Making more than one change at a time will almost always lead to frustration and confusion.
