After my second language problem I did a fresh new install of 1.3.2 and started inputting products.
with SEO turned on (used to work fine with 1.3.0) you can see a product in a category, but clicking on it does nothing except add the subcategory directory path to the address bar and breadcrumbs. Each click adds another directory depth : example (the url should be one category, one sub category, one product)
In fact it is displaying the main category, the subcategory, then repeating the subcategory every time the product within the subcategory is clicked (the product itself cannot be reached or displayed)
asiafactory-hk.com/mens-jewelry/mens-bracelets-stainless/mens-bracelets-stainless/mens-bracelets-stainless/mens-bracelets-stainless/mens-bracelets-stainless/mens-bracelets-stainless (repeats as many times as you click the product)

I've checked everything and I seem to have the setup right - I've left seo on for the problem to be demonstrated. ( http://www.asiafactory-hk.com )

"mens-jewelry" is the main category
"mens-bracelets-stainless" is the subcategory
"mens-bracelet-stainless" is the product (don't get that far)

Tks, John

Could someone please help by verifying this problem with the link I gave, browse to the product (Mens Jewelry > Bracelets - Stainless > here you will find the one product entered)...
And then advise if I should post it as a bug.

Daniel or Qphoria please

Thank you, John

Update...
If I add a second product, then I can browse to its product page, but the behaviour of an extra directory path being added in the address bar and breadcrumb trail every time the product is refreshed still happens.
And the first product still cannot be seen in its product page.

If there are still no replies to this, I will log it as a bug.

you need to use a unique keyword for each SEO keyword. if you use the same word it will confuse the system and the first result will be shown.

I dn't understand why this is not obvious to people.

Probably because SEO keywords (by these I mean meta descriptions/keywords) don't need to be unique, which is what I thought that stood for at first also.

Perhaps rename the field to "Permalink" as WordPress does, even if that does seem like copying, "permalink" has become a popular term and I would think would definitely help clear up the confusion.

It is only semi-obvious. One thing we've run into is the fact that all aliases need to be unique, including those for the manufacturers. In a previous version we could put "manufacturer/apple" as the SEO keyword for the manufacturer, but now we can't. So we can't have the same word for a category and a manufacturer.
