Items published under a /product/<id> URL

On SuiteCommerce Advanced an item with an empty URL component is published at /product/<internal id>: a URL with none of the words a shopper or a search engine reads. Filling the URL component gives it a real address; a 301 from the old one keeps what it had earned.

Updated · By the SuiteAnalytics team

What we detect

/product/<id> URLs found in the sitemap or in links on the crawled pages. When the item later gets a URL component, SuiteCommerce answers the old address with a 301 to the new one.

How to fix it

  1. Fill the URL component on every item still published as /product/<id> — in bulk where there are many.
  2. Redirect each old /product/<id> address to the new one with a 301 where it is not already redirected.
  3. Regenerate the sitemap and confirm no /product/ address remains in it.
