Hi,

As you can see here: [ restaurantdirect.ca/component/hikamarket/vendor/show/cid-3](https://restaurantdirect.ca/component/hikamarket/vendor/show/cid-3) when I click to go to a vendor page on my site, the URL contains /component/hikamarket/vendor/show/cid-3 instead of just the vendor name.
What do I need to change to make it just the vendor name?

Hello,

These vendor URL are working just like HikaShop products.
You have to create a "vendor listing" and use that menu in order to have a nice SEF url.

There is an option in HikaMarket to set-up the default vendor listing menu for links you'll have in your website (such as the "sold by" links if you display them).

Hi again,

I created a vendor menu item here: [ restaurantdirect.ca/all-restaurants](https://restaurantdirect.ca/all-restaurants)

Set the vendor menu in the config, and it works fine from that page.

However, when you access a vendor from the map on the front page at [ restaurantdirect.ca](https://restaurantdirect.ca), it still shows the hikamarket part of the URL.

Is that something I need to get that developer to fix on their end?

Hello,

If the links are coming from "MyMapsLocation", then you should have a setting to set-up the Joomla menu to use for the URL generation.
If there is no menu (no "ItemId"), then Joomla SEF system will create generic URL with "components/hikamarket/".
