Usually, such issue (where com_content is called instead of com_hikashop) means that a category name has the same name as another menu item, joomla category/article and thus the SEF system of Joomla thought that it had to be displayed by com_content which didn't find any category with that id and thus created any error.

Unfortunately unpublishing the default category listing did not solve the problem. I also have that weird "Products" part of the url. I didn't add any category named "Products" both to hikashop and joomla. Where does that even come from? ![:(](/media/kunena/emoticons/5.png ":(") I also tried changing the configuration on SEF url options but it doesn't seem to change anything. Any hikashop menu I've created ended in the form domain.tld/Products/alias. And yes, I tried specifying a custom alias for the menus. -- HikaShop Business edition version -- : 2.3.1 -- Joomla version -- : 3.2.3 -- PHP version -- : 5.4.29 --built-in Joomla SEF Last edit: 12 years 3 months ago by [dv2016webmaster](/forum/user/32253-dv2016webmaster "View dv2016webmaster's Profile").

For example, we added new option to remove the product id (or category id) from the SEF urls. Now HikaShop 2.3.2 is available and like you will see in the change log, some improvements and fixes has been made. Using the last version could help you to fix your problem. [ www.hikashop.com/support/support/documen...ashop-changelog.html](https://www.hikashop.com/support/support/documentation/56-hikashop-changelog.html) If it does not solve it, having your HikaShop SEF configuration and more details about your website, products, menu. Can be useful. Regards, --- Jerome - Obsidev.com HikaMarket & HikaSerial developer / HikaShop core dev team.
