All other menus/modules on the site work correctly with SEF URLs. To highlight this problem I created a BRAND NEW Joomla 2.5.6 site. The only component installed on the site is HikaShop Business 1.5.8. I created two categories with one product in each category. I created a Category Content Module and placed it in the right side module position. When I go to the front end of the site I see the Category module displayed. When I click on either of the two categories I receive a 404 error. When I disable Search Engine Friendly URLs everything works correctly. I also created Products Listing Menu items. These work properly and show the appropriate products in the category with or without SEF URLs enabled. Caching is disabled on the site Last edit: 14 years 2 months ago by [gbumgarner](/forum/user/8429-gbumgarner "View gbumgarner's Profile").

In the Joomla backend you need to go the Menu Manager and click the REBUILD button on the menus.
