I also commented out following lines of code in "show_default.php": <!--<span id="hikashop_product_code_main" class="hikashop_product_code_main"> <?php echo $this->element->product_code; ?> </span>--> I hope this will not affect any other stuff in my shop? I also noticed, this variant code also appearing with product name in Orders pages/invoices? How can i remove it from there? And one more question? Is there any way i can change shop url to my own? by default url is: [ www.mysite.com/shop/product/cid-81](http://www.mysite.com/shop/product/cid-81) but want it to change to: [ www.mysite.com/shop/softwares/cid-81](http://www.mysite.com/shop/softwares/cid-81) I just want to replace 'product' word with my own. Because i just have single product. Thanks Last edit: 14 years 4 months ago by [fastweb](/forum/user/7315-fastweb "View fastweb's Profile").

That's a new option we added in the latest version so that you can easily remove the display of the product code. Otherwise, you can also add CSS in your template CSS file to hide it: .hikashop_order_product_name{display:none;} Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzUyNDExLXZhcmlhbnQtbmFtZS1pbi1wcm9kdWN0LW5hbWUtaXNzdWU/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[fastweb](/forum/user/7315-fastweb "View fastweb's Profile")** - [![fastweb's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/7315-fastweb "View fastweb's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/7315-fastweb) Less More - Posts: 11 - Thank you received: 0 - - 14 years 4 months ago [\#53190](#53190) by [fastweb](/forum/user/7315-fastweb "View fastweb's Profile") Replied by *[fastweb](/forum/user/7315-fastweb "View fastweb's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Variant name in Product name issue??](/forum/4-how-to/52411-variant-name-in-product-name-issue#53190 "Hello, Variants names are showing up in product name like: Product Name variant_name_1 I tried turning off the option "Append characteristics value to product name" but it's not working.
