Hi

Got an issue with duplicate urls - building a megamenu, using hikashop categories as the menu structure.

Basically, I've got 2 categories with sub-categories of the same name in them, e.g:

Carp and Specimen ---&gt; hooks
Predator --&gt; hooks

This is creating duplicate content; is there any way to keep the category name in the URL whilst using SH404? Otherwise, both url's are spat out as:

hooks/category/listing.html

WITHOUT SH404, the categories are exactly as I need them, i.e:

/tackle/carp-and-specimen/carp-and-specimen/hooks
/tackle/predator/hooks

Yet, without it, the pop-up modal for 'add to cart' brings up the home page in the modal!

Hi,

Thanks to try to change the options in HikaShop &gt; Configuration &gt; Features &gt; SEF.
To disable smaller url, or put back an id in the url.
