...../checkout/checkout ?

-- url of the page with the problem -- : the one leading to checkout
-- HikaShop version -- : sometime before 2.5.0
-- Joomla version -- : any compatible with the above
-- PHP version -- : ditto
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : any and all of them
-- Error-message(debug-mod must be tuned on) -- : nope

Hi,

I notice not only since 2.5.0 that the URL to checkout always gets "/checkout" added to whatever the menu item alias is. Is that necessary? It can lead to a "stuttering" URL if one has (like me and many, many others, I bet):

• a (hidden) menu item with alias "checkout"
• this menu item forced on the checkout
• URL rewriting on

As we all know, the result is what's here above in the subject line. Somehow I had hoped it would end with 2.5.0.
Sure, I could use a different alias, but I can't think of a better one to make it looking a bit less , and it seems unnecessary anyway as I do remember times when this didn't occur. With due respect for all the many other improvements - how to go back to "normal"? Or is there a life-threatening reason making it necessary to force this "suffix" onto a forced alias?

Thanks!

Dang! With that field empty it works as expected!

Sorry for overlooking it, and thanks for the hint!

Hi,

I hope it's no problem to continue this older thread, we seem to have a similar issue and can't figure it out. In our configuration we always had the "Checkout SEF name" empty in order not to get the url ".../checkout/checkout" because we also already have a forced hidden menu with alias "checkout", just like lousyfool above.

But after updating to Hikashop 3 with all legacy settings set to No (also just tried with latest 3.1.1 [1707282317]) it doesn't work anymore. We can see it stops working when we change the forced checkout menu type from "Checkout (Legacy)" to "Checkout".

- With menu set to "Checkout" Hikashop seems to ignore our empty SEF name field and will always append "/checkout" to the url, resulting in ".../checkout/checkout" which we don't want.
- Setting the menu type back to "Checkout (Legacy)" the url correctly becomes ".../checkout" again, but we would like to use the new HS3 checkout with all legacy settings off and to prevent 403 errors we can't use this menu type.


Can you reproduce the issue, or are we overlooking something? Thanks for any help!

Hi,

I just downloaded and installed the latest version 3.1.1 [1707282317] but I don't notice any difference, the url is still ".../checkout/checkout" like before.
I got the latest version from the website today on August 2nd, but I noticed the version number seems to indicate the download package is still from September 28th, so not sure if your patch is included?

Thanks for looking into it.

No problem, just downloaded it and it fixed the url for the checkout, thanks!

Ai, sorry I spoke too soon, it doesn't seem to work entirely correct yet.
The patch works for the first page of the checkout, the url is as we want www.ourwebshop.com/checkout .
But when we go to the next steps of our checkout, it still adds checkout a second time in the url: www.ourwebshop.com/checkout/checkout/show/cid-2 .

Can it also be fixed to prevent this second checkout in the url after the first step?
Thanks again!

Hi Jerome,

we updated to 3.2.0 though unfortunately we still have /checkout/checkout in our url.
We saw in the Change Log this was mentioned among the 3.2.0 bug fixes, but we don't see any change. When we leave the Checkout SEF Name field empty, Hikashop will still add an additional "checkout" to the url.

Kind regards,

Hi,

I am the only one who still has this issue? Did someone look into it?

Thanks

Hi,

There is nothing special. There is no issue on first step but on any other it adds "checkout" to the url. So if you have menu item hikashop->checkout and named in "checkout" then on step 2 you have url like this "mysite/checkout/checkout/show/cid-2

Similar as GW said:

""Ai, sorry I spoke too soon, it doesn't seem to work entirely correct yet.

Hi,

J!3.9.5 / HikaShop 4.0.3: Still an issue? Or again?

Menu item:

Config:


URL:

Hi again,

1. Yes, it's empty. However, no difference if I enter "checkout", save and try again: the URL is still /checkout/checkout/.
2. It's not the "(Legacy)" version. Other than that, and alias "checkout", nothing there to configure.
3. Business : 4.0.3 [1903081604].

Thanks.
