Hello,

First can you precise the context in details :
1. Can you describe the page where you experienced this error message, please ? And add your step by step process to reach it.
2. Active the Joomla debug mode (level developer) and provide this enriched screenshot, please.
3. Provide your build, please


Awaiting news from you to be able to progress on your subject.

Regards

Hi,

I think you have an old build of HikaShop 4.4.
Please download again the install package of the 4.4.0 on our website to get the latest build and install it again on your website. That should fix that problem.

Just downloaded Hikashop 4.4.0 against a Joomla 3.6.5 PHP 7.3.24 site and getting the same error when accessing the Hikashop products listing or category listing.

Hi,

That's strange.
Try changing the line:
if(HIKASHOP_J30)
to:
if(HIKASHOP_J30 && method_exists($menu, 'getParams'))
in the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/helpers/module.php
That should hopefully fix the problem.

Thanks Nicolas,

That fixed the issue in : administrator/components/com_hikashop/helpers/module.php

I also had to add that to:-

components/com_hikashop/views/product/view.html.php

...in components/com_hikashop/views/product/view.html.php there are multiple places where this mod need to be applied.

I can now view product list and product detail without the error...

What could be causing this issue?

Hi,

I suppose it must be linked to your version of Joomla. Joomla changed several times the way we can access the parameters of a menu item in the past 10 years and so we adapted the code.
I'm actually not even sure that Joomla 3.6 is fully compatible with PHP 7.3.
Updating to the latest version of Joomla 3 will probably fix the issues with getParams without doing any code change.
