"Recommend to friend" link points to "Ask a Question" template in productdetails

[Enriko]

Dear all,

I have the option: "Show the Recommend to a friend link?" Turned on in Virtuemart Configuration --> Shop Front --> Core Settings.

if I click on the email icon in the productdetails of one article. Then I get to see the popup with the "Ask a Question" template.

Example: (in Dutch)
http://www.vanmijenco.nl/producten-nieuw/geboorte-ei-detail
When the email icon in the top right corner of the product details is clicked,then I get to see the following URL in the Element inspector.

Code Select Expand

<iframe id="fancybox-frame" name="fancybox-frame1382128280463" frameborder="0" hspace="0" scrolling="auto" src="/producten-nieuw/geboorte-ei-detail/askquestion?tmpl=component"></iframe>

If i change the text: askquestion in the element inspector (Chrome) to recommend, Then i will get to see the Recommend to a friend screen.

Also if I rightmouseclick on the Email icon --> Click on Open in new tab --> Then i will get on the correct page.

How can I make sure that the recommend to a friend page is shown, instead of the ask a question.


Here the links with SEO disabled.
Example product: http://www.vanmijenco.nl/view/productdetails/virtuemart_product_id/67/virtuemart_category_id/2
When clicking on the email icon, the following iframe is shown:

Code Select Expand

<iframe id="fancybox-frame" name="fancybox-frame1382175479495" frameborder="0" hspace="0" scrolling="auto" src="/view/productdetails/task/askquestion/virtuemart_product_id/67/virtuemart_category_id/2/tmpl/component"></iframe>

If you rightmouseclick onthe icon, the following correct link is shown
http://www.vanmijenco.nl/view/productdetails/task/recommend/virtuemart_product_id/67/virtuemart_category_id/2/tmpl/component


I started this topic on a dutch forum. I would like to update this one, once this is solved.

Are you using any 3rd party SEF URL component in your site? If yes then disable the same and check.

Dear Jumbo,

No I use the default Joomla and Virtuemart SEF URL's
But Jenkinhill informed me that this is already known in below topic i found, where another user had the same (sort of) issue.
http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=119688.0

@Enrico that link issue is known. Fix should be in SVN now ready for next release.

I also tested without any SEF URL's, this to make sure this was not the issue. Because i also thought that the translation to the SEF could cause this.


For me now only to know is:
How/where can we see the status of current bugs? Do you have any links on that for me to look into?
Then I can close this topic also on the dutch forum.
