Thanks in advance!")* Hi Mohamed Thanks for the response. Ok, sure I *could* edit the code in the product view, but this is a solution that would be problematic for non-coders and as such I'm a bit surprised. Surely the product works without having to dip into the code unless you want to customise something for your particular needs? The 'ask a question' function is pretty standard for ecommerce products. Does it work 'out of the box' and if no, is there something in the configuration (other than editing code) that we should be setting with the redirect url?

If that's not the case, then something is wrong on your end and we'll need a link to the product page to tell you why it does that.

We have a 'testing' version of this site for you to take a look at, so try this product: [ Taylor SRV](http://bowlp.essentee.geek.nz/bowls/product/152-taylor-srv) The ask a question work fine: [ Ask a question](http://bowlp.essentee.geek.nz/bowls/product/contact/cid-1666) But if you click on OK you get: [ result](http://bowlp.essentee.geek.nz/bowls/product) (Note - if you just click on the above link you will get an error message 'product not found' but this is not what the user gets - the user just gets a blank screen, which you will see if you step through it as a user) It doesn't seem to be appending a product ID or similar to the end of the url ? And this would seem to be supported by the 'product not found' error message.... Thanks! Otherwise, we are loving this product!

View Source shows no code. I believe it is doing this because the url - which is constructed "domainname.com/category/product" does not exist. Where is this url set? Created? I tried looking on your demo site but you don't appear to have 'ask a question enabled'. We can provide administration login details for you to look at the site if this would be helpful... Thanks!
