Hikashop 2.1.0 Pagination Bug

After I upgraded Hikashop from Version 2.0.0 to 2.1.0, the pagination no longer worked. Whenever I clicked on any of the page number, I was directed to the home page. It happened only when I turned on the URL Rewriting (Joomla Default SEF). Otherwise it worked normally.

Here's the link to the website AFTER UPGRADE
cavemanprojects.com/ak009/all-tyres/

Before Upgrade (2.0.0)
cavemanprojects.com/ak007/all-tyres/

Other system info
Joomla! Version: 2.5.9
PHP Version: 5.3.15
Hikashop Version: 2.1.0 Business Edition

i have the same problem and also the shopping cart is redirected at all times to the index page and never stays on the page of the product or produces the popup (dpending on the configuration settings) ...at all times it goes back to the homepage

Hi,

That the issue only happens on some servers and we cannot reproduce it on our end.
The issue is that the URL in the form of the pagination is not correct on your websites. That URL comes from the $_SERVER variable generated by PHP on your server. So it means that PHP is not returning the correct variable. We will need a backend access to your website in order to analyze the problem.
Could one of you provide that via our contact form please ?

Please include a link to this thread and write urgent in your subject so that we can look at that as soon as possible.

Hello Nicolas,

I just send you the info about the website and login.

What surprises me in this that it used to work before the update as huiyun writes and shows with his double installation of the previous and current version. That makes it hard to have my host provider look into it.

I really hope the solution will soon be found because as it is this makes Hikashop not ready for use for our website.

I hope your magic works again Nicolas

Hi,

Change the line:
if(!empty($_SERVER["REDIRECT_URL"])){

to:
in the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/helpers/helper.php and that should fix the problem.
The problem is that in order to handle the strange $_SERVER configuration of some servers, we had to change the hikashop_currentURL() function for the 2.1 version. However, since your server also has a strange $_SERVER configuration albeit different, it now doesn't work with 2.1.
The fix I propose should allow the hikashop_currentURL() to work properly on all server configurations.

I made the adjustment you mentioned ...

The result is no change at all .... if i try to go to the next page with products it returns me to the homepage

Sorry, I was a bit too fast. I've updated my code above. Please use the new code.

Sorry Nicolas ...but unfortunatly this also didnt work

I cleared all caches and still it didnt work ....yet

Can you tell me what is 'strange' about the current $Server congfiguration of my host service.
I might then be able to ask them for support.

The forum has removed some of my code in my message. I've added the code tags to avoid that. Please get the code again from my message and try again.

The issue is that the REDIRECT_URL variable is present but with the wrong URL. it is /ak007/index.php instead of /ak007/all-tyres/ which is in REQUEST_URI.
And on the other server for which we had to do a patch for HikaShop 2.1, it was the opposite, the REDIRECT_URL was correct and the REQUEST_URI was not correct.

You are a genius Nicolas!

I hereby will suggest to award you with the Nobel-price-for-Joomla-development-and-support!!!!!

IT WORKS !!!!!!!

You have no idea how happy you just made me


(but this means i must manually update the helper.php file if there is an update ..right?)

Hi,

The fix would be include in the next package release.
So you have to modify it today, but with the next update, the fix would be there !

Regards,

Thank you so much for pointing that out Jerome
Thats the best solution i could hope for.

Yes the pagination works properly for me as well. Thanks.

However, when I click on add to cart, I am not directed to the check out page.
Attached is my configuration.

On a sidenote, I tried the setting "stay and display a popup notice" and that worked fine.
It just did not work with the setting shown in the attached pic.

Hi,

Are your redirected to the homepage ? Did you stayed on the product page ?

Regards,

I stayed on the product page. However, when I check the cart, the product was correctly added.

Edit:

Ok it might be a template or customization issue on my end since it works properly with Beez2 template.

On the template I am using, if I choose "No" for "Use AJAX when possible for add to cart buttons" setting, then it works. Come to think about it, if a buyer is to be brought straight to "check out" upon clicking on the "Add to cart" button, there is no need for AJAX. Correct me if I am wrong.
Anyway thanks for your time.
