Topic summary

A Shopify store owner reports a navigation bug on collection pages where clicking product titles redirects users to the homepage instead of the product page. Clicking product images works correctly and leads to the proper product pages.

Troubleshooting attempted:

  • Specifically recommended verifying that product title links use {{ product.url }} instead of "/" in the href attribute
  • The store owner located and modified 'a href="/"' to 'a href="{{ product.url }}"in the collection.liquid file

Current status:
The code change did not resolve the issue. The problem remains unresolved, and the store owner is seeking additional troubleshooting suggestions.

Hello, when your scrolling through the products under the collection pages, EX: Youth Apparel, Mugs, Stickers; and you click on an items title to view it, it leads the user back to the home page. But, if one was to click the products picture, it does lead them to the product page. How to a fix this to where both, the title/description & the picture, lead you to the product page.

Thank you.

Check the HTML or Liquid code for your collection pages. Look for the section where product titles are linked. It should look something like <a href="{{ product.url }}"> for product titles. Make sure the href is correctly pointing to {{ product.url }} and not "/" or any other incorrect path. Fix any issues you spot there.

I was able to find what I believe is the correct code you were pointing out. In the “collection.liquid” I found ‘a href=“/”’ and changed it to ‘a href="{{ product.url }}’, but that did not do the trick. Any other suggestions?
