consistent product URL

Hi,

I have noticed that selecting a product via a module, and selecting a product through its category page yields a different URL.

I would like to have the same URL when a product is selected via any link
in addition I would like the products to always be associated their parent category i.e. website/category/product/product-name
(my site has a different template per category)

currently if I visit the same product from a module it will pick up the URL website/component/hikashop/product/product-name (and I would also like to remove the component/hikashop part of the URL)

I noticed you could associate a product with a vendor in 1.41, but I just wanted to find out how to always associate a product with a category (as far as its URL and therefore styling in my case is concerned)?

kind regards

Hi,

You have to use the HikaShop option (added in 2.3.1) to always use the canonical url when creating a link to a product.
It's not related to HikaMarket, just to HikaShop.

Regards,

thanks,

I used a combination of that and associating the corresponding category menu to the module (in hikashop options).
