Menu item structure

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.4.0
-- Joomla version -- : 3.3.6
-- PHP version -- : 5.4

Hello,

I am trying to setup the following menu item structure for my HikaShop store.

Book Store (Listing of brands, parent menu item)
- Brand One (Brand description with product listing, first child menu item)
-- Product page from brand one (second child menu item)
- Brand Two (Brand description with product listing, first child menu item)
-- Product page from brand two (second child menu item)

The listing of brands and individual brand pages are setup and working correctly, but when navigating to an individual product page, the menu item structure is not maintained. For example, book-store/category/681-delmar-cengage-nelson-education shows all of the products in the Delmar-Cengage/Nelson Education brand, but when I click on a product in the brand, the URL becomes book-store/product/716-a-practical-guide-to-teaching-in-the-fire-service. Is there a way to keep the URL like this: book-store/681-delmar-cengage-nelson-education/product/716-a-practical-guide-to-teaching-in-the-fire-service?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello,

I have changed "Force canonical URLs on listings" to "No, generate the URLs", but the same URL structure is in place. Are there any other changes required?

Hello,

I have cleared my browser's cache and the website is not currently using caching. The URLs are still in the old format. Any ideas? Thank you.

Hello,

Do you have any further suggestions for fixing this URL issue? Thank you.

Hello,

I have disabled the product template overrides and cleared the cache, but the URLs are still in the same format. Would I need to setup a sub menu item structure to produce the proper URLs or would this be handled automatically by HikaShop?

Hello,

I can provide access, but I need a secure way to submit the website login information. Can I email you directly or do you have a secure form I could use?

Hello,

I changed 'Force canonical URLs on listings' to 'No, generate the URLs', which fixed one issue, but now '/category_pathway-681' is being added to the end of the URL. Is there a way to remove this portion from the generated URLs? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,

Which version of HikaShop do you have ? Because since 6 Months changes have been done regarding the canonical urls, and urls management in general.

Hello,

I am using version 2.6.0. I changed to 'No, generate the URLs' after updating, so this issue may be tied to the new version.

Hello,

I set the breadcrumb parameter to 'Yes' and the issue was resolved. Thank you for your assistance.
