Hi,
You're right, there is an issue in HikaShop 2.5.0 for the new product edition and the product templates.
You have two solutions :
- Add the parameter "&legacy=1" in the URL while editing the product template,
You should be able to set the product tax category in the legacy mode
- Edit the file "administrator/components/com_hikashop/views/product/form.php" and replace
if((!isset($this->product->product_type) || $this->product->product_type == 'main') && hikashop_acl('product/edit/tax')) {
By
if((!isset($this->product->product_type) || in_array($this->product->product_type, array('main', 'template'))) && hikashop_acl('product/edit/tax')) {
(I will submit that patch to HikaShop)
Regards,
