EDIT:

This seems to have been caused by my CREARESEO extension. I had to uninstall to find that out since disabling the extension fooled me into thinking it was something else. I am working on locating the file that is interrupting Magento's default redirect, any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Original Post

How can I debug product redirect?

I am tracking products in Google Shopping by appending ?utm_source=google_shopping to the product URL. The problem is that for some reason Magento will not allow URL parameters on product URLs.

If my product url is /product-one.html?this=parameter it 301 redirects to /product-one.html.

EDIT: This only happens on product pages. If I append category or CMS page urls with URL parameters they work fine. That said, if my category URL is /recipes and I type the old URL of /recipes.html?this=parameter "?this=parameter" is lost.

I have disabled my SEO extensions and when I do a var_dump of $request on line 202 of /mage/core/controller/varien/router/standard.php it knows that the requested URL has the parameters but it chooses not to preserve them in the redirect.

I modified the file mentioned above in hopes of forcing the parameters to be inherited by the rewritten rule to no avail.

 $requestedURL=$request->getRequestUri();
     $urlAliases=$request->getAliases();
     $urlAlias=$urlAliases['rewrite_request_path'];
     $parametersOfRequestedURL=strstr($requestedURL,"?",false);
     if($parametersOfRequestedURL){
         echo $newRequestURL=$urlAlias.$parametersOfRequestedURL;
         $request->setRequestUri($newRequestURL);
         var_dump($request);
         die;
         //$request->setRequestUri();
     }

Removed HTACCESS as it seems to not be a part of the problem. Will provide if requested.

  • Try commenting out this section <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/subdomain/piwik/ ... and retest Oct 9, 2014 at 16:02
  • I have. It seems to be controlled by Magentos URL rewrite. I have disabled my SEO extensions and when I do a var_dump of $request on line 202 of /mage/core/controller/varien/router/standard.php it knows that the requested URL has the parameters but it chooses not to preserve them in the redirect.

  • I just test on 1.7 and not having that issue Oct 9, 2014 at 17:08

I had the same issue with the CREARESEO extension. I fixed it by doing the following:

Open /app/code/community/Creare/CreareSeoCore/Model/Observer.php

Find:

    public function forceProductCanonical(Varien_Event_Observer $observer)
{
    if (Mage::getStoreConfig('catalog/seo/product_canonical_tag') && !Mage::getStoreConfig('product_use_categories'))
    {
        if (Mage::getStoreConfig('creareseocore/defaultseo/forcecanonical')) {
            // check for normal catalog/product/view controller here
            if(!stristr("catalog",Mage::app()->getRequest()->getModuleName()) && Mage::app()->getRequest()->getControllerName() != "product") return;
            $product = $observer->getEvent()->getProduct();
            $url = $product->getUrlModel()->getUrl($product, array('_ignore_category'=>true));
            if(Mage::helper('core/url')->getCurrentUrl() != $url){
                Mage::app()->getFrontController()->getResponse()->setRedirect($url,301);
                Mage::app()->getResponse()->sendResponse();
            }
        }
    }
}

And replace with:

    public function forceProductCanonical(Varien_Event_Observer $observer)
{
    if (Mage::getStoreConfig('catalog/seo/product_canonical_tag') && !Mage::getStoreConfig('product_use_categories'))
    {
        if (Mage::getStoreConfig('creareseocore/defaultseo/forcecanonical')) {
            // check for normal catalog/product/view controller here
            if(!stristr("catalog",Mage::app()->getRequest()->getModuleName()) && Mage::app()->getRequest()->getControllerName() != "product") return;
            $product = $observer->getEvent()->getProduct();
            $url = $product->getUrlModel()->getUrl($product, array('_ignore_category'=>true));
            // if there are GET parameters, add them to the url
            if($_GET) {
                $params = '?' . http_build_query($_GET, '', '|');
                $url .= $params;
            }
            if(Mage::helper('core/url')->getCurrentUrl() != $url){
                Mage::app()->getFrontController()->getResponse()->setRedirect($url,301);
                Mage::app()->getResponse()->sendResponse();
            }
        }
    }
}

Cheers.
