Title: Category change after selecting a product
Post by: oriolindoclima on November 26, 2015, 09:43:42 AM
Hi,

we have a lot of products in more than one category. The fact is that when you enter to a product, the sef and the tree navigation displays another url and it creates a big confusion.

see the example:
1-SPECIFIC PRODUCT CATEGORY
URL1- http://www.solocamarasfrigorificas.com/v2/vitrinas-expositoras/fondo-1100  (http://www.solocamarasfrigorificas.com/v2/vitrinas-expositoras/fondo-1100)

2-AFTER CHOOSING A PRODUCT PROM URL 1, THE URL CHANGE TO ANOTHER CATEGORY ASIGNED.
http://www.solocamarasfrigorificas.com/v2/productos-ordenados-por-tipo-de-negocio/maquinaria-para-carniceria/vitrina-cristal-elevable-ve-10e-detail (http://www.solocamarasfrigorificas.com/v2/productos-ordenados-por-tipo-de-negocio/maquinaria-para-carniceria/vitrina-cristal-elevable-ve-10e-detail)

We are using VirtueMart 3.0.9 version and Joomla! 3.4.1.

Thank you in advance

What happens if you use the current versions of Joomla & VirtueMart?   http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=118683.0

Test on a backup copy of your site.

This was reported also by others in the past
Would be great if you can set a primary and secondary categories for a product.
