There are 3 pages, (1)category (2)products in category (3)products that are highlighted I would like to display a category text in the "(2)products in category" page and not in (3). I added the code that you gave me and it added a category text in #(3). - See Attached pics [ www.tsnsportsnutrition.com](http://www.tsnsportsnutrition.com) I really appreciate you taking the time in helping me. Sorry if I was not clear... Big5hot _______________ UPDATE: Hi Mohamed.. After playing with the many controls, I may have stumbled on the SOLUTION. I Hide the Menu and the category title for each category appeared. Im not sure if that was the reason, but as you can see, the issue is resolved. THANKS = Mohamed for your time and efforts... again.

The code I gave will display the name of all the parents of the category with its id set in the $category_id. If you don't set any $category_id before that code with the id of the category for which you want to display the parents, it won't be able to work properly. For example, you can add your code inside the categories foreach like this foreach($this->categories as $category){ $category_id = $category->category_id; //code from my previous message } Please understand that the support we provide here is about the use of HikaShop, not to code for you your customizations, although we try to help when it's not too complex. I would recommend to look for a developer to help you if you're not a developer and that you want to add advanced code modifications like these.

I have a site with sports teams listed, each team has a sub-category of the main category 'clubshops' and I would like to display this above the product name so that people can flick back to the teams main category view.

Sample URL to product page: [ /teamshop/llansawel/product/396-training-vest](http://design-source-supply.com/teamshop/llansawel/product/396-training-vest) I have added code to templates/gk_storefront/html/product/show_tabular.php However the link created goes to: /teamshop/llansawel/team/27-llansawel-rfc And I would like it to go to: /teamshop/llansawel/ Is there anyway to change this, other than editing .htaccess to redirect?
