Hi
I have a problem to configure the url of my website because I have 2 different urls that points to the same product (not good)
Example :
Home= Products listing >> click on product = domain.com/theme/12-productname

Home >> click on the categories menu >> list of products in the category >> click on product = domain.com/themes-categories/theme/12-productname

If I configure the categories menu to point with the associated menu which is the home page (product listing), the url is good but my categories are empty

Please tell me what is wrong :)

Hi,

If in the associated module of the categories menu you select the home page menu, it's normal that you don't have products listed, the home page menu is a product listing one, in the associated module you have to select a category listing one.

So you can potentially edit you main menu in order to set it as a category listing menu, and associate the desired module on it.

thank you for your answer, but this has no sense to me...

edit you main menu in order to set it as a category listing menu

I don't want a category listing but a product listing in the home page

what I don't understand is how it can be 2 ways to go on the same product, from the product listing the url should be the same as from any other way

Please detail me step by step how to have a product listing on the home page and a categories menu on the left of each page and the same url for both, with not empty category

Hi,

Simply set the Force canonical urls on listings option of the hikashop configuration to automatically generate them if not available and when in display a product listing with a correct link it will save it in the canonical url option of the product and use that url for all the link going to the product page.
