Please check in the product edition pages if you have an url set for the "Canonical url" setting. If it is, so you have to replace it, or you can too change the value of the option "Force canonical URLs on listings" in Configuration > Features > SEF urls.

No idea how it came there. Removing it solved the problem. But now I'm afraid there might be some other products with the same problem. Is it safe, easy and smart to use a bulk action to get all the product fields with the canonical URL emptied? If so, how should I do that? :huh: Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtL3Byb2R1Y3QtY2F0ZWdvcnktZGlzcGxheS84ODAxMzItdXJsLXByb2JsZW0tYWZ0ZXItbmFtZS1jaGFuZ2UtY2F0ZWdvcnk/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")** - [![nicolas's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar63.png?1793428657)](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") - [ Away](/forum/user/63-nicolas) Less More - Posts: 86358 - Thank you received: 14292 - - 11 years 1 week ago [\#218981](#218981) by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") Replied by *[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")* on topic *[URL problem after name change category](/forum/26-product-category-display/880132-url-problem-after-name-change-category#218981 "-- url of the page with the problem -- : www.syren.net/en/bodyscan-security-websh...nner-strong-receiver -- HikaShop version -- : 2.6.0 -- Joomla version -- : 2.5.28 I made some new categories and renamed some categories.

You can do that via the System>Mass actions menu with a mass action with an action "update the values" on the "product_canonical" field without any value for it. Just press the "process" button and that will do it.
