Thanks, Roy")* Hi, The "category" part of the URL comes from the "category SEF name" option of the HikaShop configuration. You can empty that field if you don't want it. Also, a good thing to do is to activate the "Force canonical URLs on listings" option of the configuration and enter one of the URLs of the category for each category in its "canonical URL" field. That way, all the links generated on HikaShop categories listings will use that URL.
