You should first try to deactivate the SEF in Joomla so that we can see the standard URLs. It's hard to say anything like that.

Ok - deactivated Joomla SEF.

The original URLs are correct and they display correctly. So Joomla SEF is translating it wrong?

It must be a problem between the SEF and joomfish. Not sure what to say since it's working fine when not SEFed...

I need to have SEF on so I'm taking off the language module for that menu item.

How I have the problem of how to display the language module on product pages as there are no Joomla menus pointing to prodct pages.

Can a module be coded into Display/views/products/show? My PHP knowledge doesn't go there.

That should be done in your template's index.php file with something like that:
if($_GET=='com_hikashop'&amp;&amp;$_GET=='product'&amp;&amp;$_GET=='show'){
//display module position
}

The way to display module positions in the index.php can be a lot different depending on how your template provider is making its templates. By default, joomla template's positions are displayed like this:
echo '&lt;jdoc:include type="modules" name="user4" /&gt;';
where user4 is the name of the position.

Thanks for that. I now use only the language module in 'user3' for product pages only as per code in previous post.

In order for the Language module to show on other Joomla article pages I created a duplicate of the language module anchored it to 'user4' position (similar to user3 in position on the page) and assigned them to menu items as required.

I had similar issue recently. Serfing the web I have found the solution which helped me:

**Step 1:** Always make a back up of the file you are working on - will save you a lot of time and nerves.

**Step 2:** Open the components/com_hikashop/router.php file with a text editor (I use Notepad++. Others might screw your files up due to the wrong encoding).

Around line 164 find Code:

if(!in_array($name,array('option','Itemid','start'))){

and replase it with
Code:

if(!in_array($name,array('option','Itemid','start','format'))){

This did work for me.

That has actually been added previously to the router.php file so if you use the latest version of HikaShop you should not have to do that and you should not have the problem.

But thanks anyway for the feedback.
