Post-Install

---

Enable Clean URLs by visiting Admin > General Settings > SEO and follow the instructions.

Suggested additional .htaccess code is available here. This enables compression, leverages browser caching, forces HTTPS / www. etc.

Suggested additional .htaccess code to block bad user agents /spiders is available here.

Suggested robots.txt code is available here (note the sitemap entries at the bottom).

Favicons reside in /skin/reboot/images/icons and the template for them is /skin/reboot/customer/favicons.tpl

We recommend securing your X-Cart root /admin folder, which you can usually do via your hosting control panel.
