Hello.
Something about OpenCart's use of SEO-friendly web links is misconfigured. When we set "Use SEO URL's" to "No" in the Server section of the Settings page, the links begin working correctly again.
One issue is that, as explained on that Settings page, "htaccess.txt" must be renamed to ".htaccess" for SEO URL's to work. However, something else is also misconfigured, because the SEO-friendly links are trying to redirect back to your main page, instead of to your "products" directory. We recommend reviewing OpenCart's installation instructions and configuration, making sure all settings are correct, particularly those that state where your OpenCart installation is located.
If you still see issues even after reviewing the configuration and renaming the htaccess.txt file, let us know and we will hel investigate.
Thank you!
