Title: Issue with manufacturer pages in multilanguage store
Post by: naoko15 on November 19, 2025, 10:16:56 AM
Hi everyone,

I've set up a multilingual store, and I'm facing an issue I can't seem to resolve.

In the default language (Spanish), the manufacturer link shown on the product detail page works perfectly—it leads to a list of products from that manufacturer.

However, in the other three active languages (English, German, and French), the link doesn't behave correctly.

Instead of showing the manufacturer's products, it leads to a button that does nothing

Spanish

/fabricante/brouwerij-van-steenberge

German

/de/marke/brouwerij-van-steenberge

Here's what I've checked so far:

- Manufacturers are translated in all languages.
- Products are correctly assigned to their manufacturers.
- SEF URLs are enabled (when disabled them, manufacturer links works perfectly)
- Updated from VM4.4 to 4.6 (issue persists)

I'm using Joomla! 5.3.3 and VM4.6

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
