Hi,

For all new categories that we create, category name doesn't display correctly when we navigate via categories layout. Instead of displaying the category name is showing the parent category name. When we navigate via menu items everything looks fine.

Old categories work well. I've noticed that links for new categories are different.

Old category link: index.php?option=com_hikashop&view=category&layout=listing&Itemid=715

New category link: index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=category&task=listing&cid=71&name=crystals-minerals&Itemid=596

thanks!

Hi,

I suppose that it's because the menu item with the id 596 is configured differently than the menu item with the id 715.
Since the links use different menu items, the way the categories will display will be different if the settings of the menu items are different.

Hi,

the menu items are identical since they are created as duplicates. For example 596 is duplicate of 715. I've used "Save as Copy" feature.

Looking at the 2 URL's now I see that the same menu item has 2 different ID's.

When navigating via menu I get the real item ID of the category inside the URL which is 1559:

index.php?option=com_hikashop&view=category&layout=listing&Itemid=1559

and when I navigate via category listing page I get this URL, with another item ID:

index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=category&task=listing&cid=71&name=crystals-minerals&Itemid=596

thanks!

So could you give a link to the page with the issue so that we could look at what is wrong with the category name ?

Hello,

I found your error :

For your Item Menu you have fill the Page Heading, please let's it empty.



For have right title when click on "Crystals & Minerals" from "Shop" Menu, just change "product categories" name to "Vesica Shop" (In your categorie backend configuration.




Hope that will fit you.

Regards,
