Sorry, but Google search for "Product TAG insertion" results in two pages only. An the two pages have absolutely nothing to do with Hikashop. The search across this forum also does not result in anything useful. I have checked documentation and could not find any description for that plugin as well. Is there any special syntax I can use in my articles?

When I show image only (without price), image shows Ok. 2) It links to product, but the links are totally not SEO-friendly, such as: **/component/hikashop/product/**674-Бензопила%20HITACHI%20%20CS33EB and the correct link would be: **/shop/product/**674-benzopila-hitachi-cs33eb (that's how it is generated by the Hikashop's frontend) Ok, it still brings me to the proper product page. But who wants to keep many different links pointing to the same product from various pages of a site. Also, Cyrillic characters are not transliterated, thus even folder will be corrected, still the full link is not the same. In my opinion, the above issue will sigbnificantly decrease the SEO power of internal links.

I want to correct alignment of price from left to center. I have found this line in CSS: Code: span.hikashop_product_price_full{ text-align: left; If I center it, it works, but it will also center price on full product page. Therefore, as far as I understand, I will need to override the view to correct styling in product TAG insertion plugin only. But I can't find the responsible view...
