weird duplication of characteristics in Backend

hi,
I have a product with four characteristics,
1. In backend, in the product edit page, the characteristics are getting duplicated each time I save with (no value) behind it.
2. In frontend, it shows OK however it does not show the cheapest value although in Configuration, diplay I opted for that in the products settings,

see below for copy/paste of the Characteristics duplication:

Ideas what could be the problem?
THank you, Damiaan

I resolved the front end issue regarding not showing the cheapest characteristic by selecting the default characteris value in the product page.
But the weird duplication of characteristics with no value in the backend (on the product page) keeps profilerating with now more than 20 characteristics in the backend with no value, they are all duplicates of the two existing characteristics with each two values that I use for these products.

Hikashop characteristics bug.mp4

hi, trie to upload the mp4 but is not accepting the file format? only 500 kb

I have put the video's with the bug on my website (restricted access, log in with Nicolas and password NICOLAS)

Well, did what you told me to and the problem persists.
I have two characteristics with each two values. If I go to manage a variant on the product /characteristic variant page the two characteristics are already shown in duplication with a dropdown showing the two values for each and a `no values found` for each characteristic as well on a seperate line. If I then add the variants and assign prices, the duplication process starts with each saving.
What could be the cause of this?
thank you,

Ok, I reproduced it on your demo, it does not give a problem.
I tried messing around a little copying on the Demo what I did on my site: changing the order of the characteristics, changing their names, changing their values names, applying discounts, it did not reproduce the problem on backend.
But on my backend, with the product page it allways shows two lines for each characteristic with on one line a dropdown possibility to choose the value and the other line saying "no values found", so I gather when I save this "no values found" is saved too and another column is added.
The "no values found" characteristics are assigned the same ID number on the product page backend, so the characteristic "Uren scriptiehulp" has about 10 lines with the same ID all saying "no values found" except one line with the values accorded to them.
Shall I make an administrator user and mail you the login so you can have a look?
The problem started last week, not sure exactly when

hi,
Well both on my live site and on my cloned development site I have tried what you suggested, with no result!
I have deleted all products AND characteristics, but as soon as I recreate two characteristics, add them to a new product and manage the prices of the variants, the rows of the variants are duplicated each time I press `save` on the product page with a `no values found` behind it and the same id number of the one variant that has a value.
On the front end there is nothing wrong, but on the backend only this row gets copied everytime I press save.

Trying to recreate the issue on the demo site of hikashop has no effects.

Could there be a conflict with another extension? But surely, that would not show in the backend of Hikashop like this?

EXTRA INFO: when I delete the extra rows with "No values found" on the product page they still show up after I press save plus one

hi, in debug mode,
when I open the product page the alert popup with "Reference Error: WFEditor not defined appears. "
When saving product page. No further error when I save the product or save the characteristic variant. The characteristic variant only gets duplicated when I press save on the product main page.
I attach two documents, one with the database querie from debug on product page and one from database querie on characteristic oversight page,
salut!
