Hi BanquetTables.pro,
I agree the component/virtuemart shouldn't be in the URL, and I read the link you sent (thanks!), but I still don't understand how to simply remove it. I don't think it makes sense for us to build separate menu items for all the categories & subcategories. I use the main menu 'VM Categories Layout' in the component area, and the 'VM Category Module' in the sidebar area to link to the categories and products, so shouldn't VM handle the URL properly? I'm confused.
Thanks,
Chuck
