Thanks for the feedback Mojweb
The pagination issue does require a hack to the Hikashop component. it is simply a change to one line of code a follows:
To disable only the pagination memory change in the file components/com_hikashop/views/product/view.html.php
$pageInfo->limit->start = $app->getUserStateFromRequest( $this->paramBase.'.limitstart', 'limitstart_'.$this->params->get('main_div_name').$category_selected, 0, 'int' );
to:
$pageInfo->limit->start = JRequest::getInt('limitstart_'.$this->params->get('main_div_name').$category_selected, 0 );
Nicolas, is there any chance of adding a core option to hikashop to enable / disable the pagination memory? e.g. when a user navigates to a category they are always taken to the first page. I know that this can be forced using the ?limitstart=1 query string but many users dislike adding the query string to their menu URLs for aesthetic reasons.
