-- HikaShop version -- : 1.6.0
-- Joomla version -- : 2.5.9
-- PHP version -- : 5.3.28
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : Firefox / Safari (not specific to browser)

I have 2 Hikashop products on my site (each in a different category). On every menu page both items are shown correctly at the top of the page but when I click one or other of the products which takes me to the Hikashop product page then the same product is shown twice at the top of the page.

How can I either get both products to display at the top of the products page or just the one relating to that product or neither?

The product display is controlled by Joomla module (display on all pages) but this only gives the option for Joomla menu pages and not Hikashop product pages.

Hi,

To edit the comportment of the module on the product page, you will potentially need the "advanced module manager" extension which is intergrated with HikaShop and allow to change the display of the module in the different HikaShop product pages.

and it requires the pro version of "advanced module manager" extension so will cost 50E just so that Hikashop can properly display it's own products? I can't say I am terribly impressed considering the amount already paid for Hikashop.
I am very disappointed - I shall look for a different option for my shop software.

Hi,

The Joomla manager doesn't handle a more fine grained filtering of the display of Modules. You can't blame an e-commerce component for the short comings of the CMS.

Nevertheless, the fact that you don't always see the same thing in your products module is because of how you configured the module itself, not a shortcoming of HikaShop or Joomla. The best would be to configure the module itself properly.
I'm guessing that it must come from the "Synchronize with currently displayed item when possible" option of your module which is activated while you want to have it turned off. You can change that by editing your module (id 147) via the menu Display->Content modules.
