Urls and SEO fields
product urls are generated from the display names and SEO title and description from item display name and display description. This article explains best practices to adopt.
URLs
Url name generation
Default behaviour: The connector generates Url names by using the display name of the entity.
To generate Urls from different fieldtypes, change the following setting in config file ( Litium.AddOns.InRiver.dll.config, i.e app.config in Litium.AddOns.InRiver project )
categoryUrlSuggestionFieldTypeIds: Comma seperated list of FieldTypeIds (field types from inRiver 'ChannelNode') that should be used in the Url Suggestion of Litium Categories. The Url Suggestion will be in the same order as the values in this list.
If not specified, the field type marked as DisplayName will be used for Url Suggestion.
baseProductUrlSuggestionFieldTypeIds: Comma seperated list of FieldTypeIds (field types from inRiver 'Product') that should be used in the Url Suggestion of Litium BaseProducts. The Url Suggestion will be in the same order as the values in this list.
If not specified, the field type marked as DisplayName will be used for Url Suggestion.
variantUrlSuggestionFeildTypeIds: Comma seperated list of FieldTypeIds (field types from inRiver 'Item') that should be used in the Url Suggestion. The Url Suggestion will be in the same order as the values in this list.
If not specified, the field type marked as DisplayName will be used for Url Suggestion.
Url name length
the name length of the url is restricted using "urlAliasMaxLength" setting in Litium.AddOns.InRiver.dll.config file. Most browsers has a url length limitation, so check before you modify the default value of 240. If the suggested url is longer than this value, it will be clipped.
url conflicts
If there is a url conflict, connector will append the inRiver entity id to the suggested url and re-try once. If that also fails, the import of that entity will fail and a error log will be generated with all information.
SEO fields
SEO title will be same as the item display name, and SEO description will be same as the item display description.
