Strange Directory: /product_p/

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I just noticed a very strange thing. Our Google results show our products under a very strange URL:
www.DomainName/product_p/product name.htm
What in the world is the "product_p" directory?
Also, it is does not show any css, so it is a text only version of the page.
Finally, if you do a Google search for "product_p" you get a ton of other sites showing this, too.
(I am still on version 3.51b)

	Those look like Volusion stores. Did you previously have one?

	We've never heard of this. (1) Can you provide an example of the Google search results URL? (2) You can always specify the Canonical URL Edited by earlyimp - 25-May-2010 at 4:00pm

	If you google 'product_p' you'll find a lot of stores using that folder similar to the way the 'productcart' folder is used. They all appear to be Volusion stores as Matt stated. Nigel Edited by intour - 25-May-2010 at 4:15pm

	Oh man, Volusion was years ago. I have to get this fixed. Thanks very much for figuring this out.

	Hmmm. It is showing my present content under that URL, not what I had on Volusion. Still hunting down the problem.

	Are you using a 301 redirect from your old product links?
