Title: Product URL Displaying Wrong Product
Post by: nuegoose on October 24, 2012, 01:58:52 AM
When I use the search on the site I'm finishing (picked up from a different programmer) I get the correct results (product image(s) with SKU and Name linked). However, when I click on a product link, I see the first product in that category, not the product I clicked on - even though the URL points to the correct product.

Here is a link to a search result for the keyword red: http://infinity-instruments.theblugroup.com/component/virtuemart/search?keyword=red&limitstart=0&option=com_virtuemart&view=category (http://infinity-instruments.theblugroup.com/component/virtuemart/search?keyword=red&limitstart=0&option=com_virtuemart&view=category)

If you click on the Mirror Image link, you will see the Cirrus Red clock instead of the Mirror Image clock.

I have no idea what happened to make the site start working this way. Our client is updating products on the site and we want to launch by next week. Any ideas as to what happened?

FYI: I know HTML and CSS, and can usually find my way around PHP. This site was not built by me, but I have had to modify it to get it to be the way it is now.

Thanks!

looks like you are using a 3rd party SEF component.

is that correct?

I'm sorry, but I really have no idea. I got the site with all the plugins/extensions already added. This is my first Joomla site, so I've been digging around trying to figure it out for the past two months.

After all that work and headache, I found in the original code what the problem was. It has since been fixed and the search is working as it should. Whoot! Yay!

On another note. Does anyone know how to make the product search always search every category? Right now when I am on an individual category/product page and use the search, it searches products within that category. Any ideas?
