Hi Nicolas,

On my staging/test website I’ve installed HikaShop 6.4.0.

In the Full breadcrumb configuration (set to Automatic), the breadcrumb path now shows like this:
Home / Category / Product name: main variant

Is there a reason why it was changed to this format?

From a user point of view, I think it would be more accurate to display:
Home / Category / Product name

The reason is that if a customer selects a different variant in the selector, the breadcrumbs don’t change, and the page still displays the main variant in the breadcrumb trail.

I’m attaching 3 screenshots with an example.

Hi,

Thank you for the report. This has been fixed. When a product has variants, the breadcrumb was using the default variant's name (which includes the characteristic values appended after a colon) instead of the main product name.

The fix is already available. You can download the updated 6.4.0 package from your member area and install it over your current version.

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for the quick fix. I’ve downloaded the updated 6.4.0 package from the member area and installed it over my current version.

I also cleared all caches (Joomla cache and server/hosting cache), but the breadcrumb still shows the default variant name, e.g.:
Home / Category / Product name: main variant

Could you please advise what else I should check, or if there is another patch/build I should install? If needed, I can send you the product URL and new screenshots.

Thanks.

Hi,

I think I had forgotten something with the previous patch. I've made another one. Please try again.
