The HikaShop configuration screen contains a lot of data to submit and if you are redirect to the home page it means that Joomla did not catch the end of the form data which contains elements like "options", "ctrl" and "task". Please check your server configuration or any security plugin. Regards, --- Jerome - Obsidev.com HikaMarket & HikaSerial developer / HikaShop core dev team.

Thanks")* Hi, We can't be more specific as we don't know all the existing ways to restrict POST requests on a server or how your server is configured. It could be a setting from suExec or from mod_security, or an admin security component on your website, etc. The best is to ask your hosting company if they have some module which would block requests in some cases like parameters amount restrictions, or hack atempts detected, etc. Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzI1LWluc3RhbGwtdXBkYXRlLzg4NDYzNC1zYXZlLWJ1dHRvbi1pbi1hZG1pbmlzdHJhdGlvbi1ub3Qtd29yaz90bXBsPW1hcmtkb3du) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[chris0879](/forum/user/32863-chris0879 "View chris0879's Profile")** - [![chris0879's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/32863-chris0879 "View chris0879's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/32863-chris0879) Less More - Posts: 11 - Thank you received: 0 - - 9 years 10 months ago [\#256601](#256601) by [chris0879](/forum/user/32863-chris0879 "View chris0879's Profile") Replied by *[chris0879](/forum/user/32863-chris0879 "View chris0879's Profile")* on topic *[save button in administration not work](/forum/25-install-update/884634-save-button-in-administration-not-work#256601 "-- HikaShop version -- : 2.6.3 -- Joomla version -- : 3.5.1 -- PHP version -- : 5.5.32 When you click the save button in administration=>component=>hikashop=>global-configuration I get redirected to the home page (On exiting the administrator) and the changes are not saved.

Saving button in Joomla global configuration always works. also on other components saving button-configuration always works. my question is: because the configuration is not saved only on hikashop? thanks!

Thanks")* Hi, Probably because that's the only page on your backend were you have so many options. For example, if you have a limit of 128 parameters per POST request, probably only that page of your backend has more tha this amount of parameters. If you want to test if it comes from that, delete some of the tabs of the configuration page in the developer tools of your browser and then save the configuration and it should then work fine which points to the fact that there is a limit on the number of parameters on your server But it could also be something else. For example, a security extension which depends a potential strange parameter on the HikaShop configuration form (and while it's not a threat, the security extension might not be tweaked correctly enough to understand that). And that wya you would also only get that error on the configuration form.

At this point I was wondering if there is a way to set those configuration variables by hand. I need to change the checkout flow, where are those variables stored in the database or there is a file where I can modify the settings?

An easier solution could be to backup your website, restore it on a local web server on your computer, change the settings, backup the local website and restore it on your online server.
