I am working on setting up my store on Hikashop. My store has been active on the web for many years now. The problem I am facing is that the url for my products already exist in an article format, and as I can see, the urls are already defined by Hikashop without being able to change it. For example : my url for one product is : www.xxx.com/aggression-natural-remedy-dog-cat and hikashop generates this url : www.xxx.com/hikashop-menu-for-products-l...1-aggression-formula I can't find anywhere on the documentation about how to configure urls. Can anybody help to teach me how I can keep my already existing urls and so keep my traffic to my site ? Thanks !

Karen")* Hi, Nor HikaShop nor Joomla has a system to modify the URLs to have whatever you want in them. There are third party extensions specialized in SEF rewriting for that. One well known is sh404SEF which has a "URL alias" feature allowing you to do exactly that. It works for HikaShop but for another other extension on your website.
