In your modules that you can edit via the menu Display>Content modules, you should set the "menu" option to a hikashop category listing menu item. Otherwise, the SEF system is not always able to generate the correct SEF URLs and it can generate such 404 errors. 2. I don't think that you want to turn off sh404sef for hikashop but rather that you want to configure it to use the standard joomla router file.

It would be great to have schema for ratings, comments and images built in to product pages. --- [ Ecommerce and web design](http://jeyjoo.com) Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzMxLWRldmVsb3BtZW50Lzg2NzMxMS1lbmFibGluZy1zZWFyY2gtZW5naW5lLWZyaWVuZGx5LXVybHMtY2F1c2VzLTQwND90bXBsPW1hcmtkb3du) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[Xavier](/forum/user/4105-xavier "View Xavier's Profile")** - [![Xavier's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar4105.png)](/forum/user/4105-xavier "View Xavier's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/4105-xavier) Less More - Posts: 13201 - Thank you received: 2322 - - - - [](http://www.kidiweb.fr) - 12 years 7 months ago [\#151651](#151651) by [Xavier](/forum/user/4105-xavier "View Xavier's Profile") Replied by *[Xavier](/forum/user/4105-xavier "View Xavier's Profile")* on topic *[Enabling Search Engine Friendly URLs causes 404](/forum/31-development/867311-enabling-search-engine-friendly-urls-causes-404#151651 "-- url of the page with the problem -- : innovazionitecnologiche.it/ -- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.0 -- Joomla version -- : 3.2.3 -- PHP version -- : 5.4.6 -- Browser(s) name and version -- : Firefox Latest -- Error-message(debug-mod must be tuned on) -- : None I have: - updated all components - renamed htaccess - turned Use URL rewriting ON - Search Engine Friendly URLs OFF - SH404SEF turned OFF for Hikashop Problem If I turn Search Engine Friendly URLs ON, I get 404 error for all Hikashop pages.
