Extra forward slashes in product page URL

[dm_antti]

Hello.

 

I'm having a weird problem with my Prestashop. When arriving to the product page on one certain category, the URL gets extra forward slash. Like this:

 

domain.com/category//subcategory/product.html

 

The extra forward slash only appears on the product pages in one specific subcategory. If I create a new subcategory and place a product in there, there are three forward slashes. So the URL looks like this:

 

domain.com/category///new-subcategory/product.html

 

I'm using Advanced URL module to clean up the URLs and I've also used Prestashop StoreManager to create the categories and handle the products.

 

I've been scratching my head for a while with this one, so all help is welcome.

Advanced URL module

 

Perhaps you should reach out to the module developer?

Thank you for the reply.

 

I've already contacted the developer who has been really helpful, but the problem is not solved yet. It's weird because, like I said in the first post, the problem only appears on one certain category.. I'm going to update Prestashop from 1.6.0.14 to 1.6.1.0 - maybe it helps.

Does the issue occur without the use of the custom third party module?

It seems like I was able to fix the problem. I'm still testing if I broke something, but there were some weird unused categories haunting in the database with parent ID 0.

After deleting these categories the URL problem disappeared.
