Prestashop in-site search not working consistently - prestashop-1.7

I'm searching the site, irrelevant things appear, I've searched all the places related to the search from beginning to end, but nothing has changed, if anyone knows, I would like your help and suggestions.
Version 1.7.8.8
I tried the search settings one by one and indexed, cleared the cache and tried it each time.
I changed the search file in the module, I also updated the search.php file in the class folder, but the result is the same.

Wrong URL used when accessing article through a module

I have an annoying problem and am hoping someone will be able to help.
We use quite a few extensions on our Joomla site (Roksprocket mainly but also Global News Filter for instance).
The modules themselves are working fine however when I click on an article in one of these modules the article opens but it doesn't use the nice URL that should be displayed (we have Search Engine Friendly URLs set to Yes and Use URL rewriting set to Yes). This happens for all modules that draw off a category (so I don't think its linked to a specific extension).
For instance on our Case Studies page if you click on Read More on the RSA Case Study you get this URL
http://www.assima.net/en/resources/case-studies/99-home/resources/case-studies/ats-case-studies/649-case-study-rsa
but what you should get is the menu item URL associated with this article which is this
http://www.assima.net/en/resources/case-studies/ats-case-studies/rsa
I don't think there is anything wrong with our .htaccess as I reverted back to the default Joomla one and it still occured.
Also this used to work perfectly. I first noticed it around October or November last year.
If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it, I've googled the problem many times and not found any help.
Thanks
Emma
FIXED.
Due to a Joomla bug. Fixed by overwriting the route.php file as described in this post: http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=625&t=831007&start=30

Template issue - Halogy

I have just installed Halogy on my MAMP localhost. I've followed the instructions here to set up all my folders and this is working fine. Dashboard looks good. However, my default template is empty. And, no matter what I put in it, after editing and saving - the markup is still empty. So I cannot get any editable fields in my pages whatsoever. When I edit my page content its just empty. I have also tried creating a new template and applying that to a new page. Same results. I am scratching my head here. Does anyone have any ideas as to what's gone wrong?
I could help you, since I've been working exclusively with and extending Halogy for about 8 months now. But, I need more details, since this behavior could be attributable to any number of issues. For example, what does the page source look like? Also, please note that, if you're not logged into Halogy, unpublished pages will not appear. However, your default home page should be visible. Have you searched the Halogy forum and/or posted your question there?

Joomla! 1.5 Category Blog Layout parameters update in database but not when displayed

I apologize if this is an easy question and I was just googling the wrong keywords. It's been a few years since I've used Joomla! but got handed a site to make some changes to, that someone else originally developed and can't seem to figure out what's going on. I'm running Joomla! v1.5.26.
I'm trying to add a blog section to the site, so I created a blog section and category and then I created a new "Category Blog Layout" in my menu and set the Columns value to 3:
However, whenever I view the page, it keeps showing 2 columns. So I went to phpMyAdmin and found the menu in jos_menu and confirmed that the database did in fact get updated:
So next I opened up /components/com_content/views/category/tmpl/blog.php and added this to to the top of the PHP file to see what values were being loaded:
<?php
print '<pre>';
print_r($this->params);
print '</pre>';
?>
Which produced the following results on the front end:
...
[num_leading_articles] => 1
[num_intro_articles] => 4
[num_columns] => 2
[num_links] => 4
...
So for some reason, even though I've set the values to update, and they do in fact update in the database, they are not updating on the front end. I've tried clearing the cache and all that fun stuff, without much luck. If it was just "num_columns" having an issue I could probably just override that functionality. However, it appears to be doing the same thing with all of the parameters, not just number of columns. I'm just using that as an example.
I haven't ruled out the possibility that it's a conflict with some third-party plugin yet, but am trying to see if maybe I'm missing something obvious and someone can point me in the right direction.
--UPDATE: 12/4/12--
So it appears to be a conflict with the sh404sef plugin. I'm not exactly sure what the deal is quite yet, but when I disable the plugin it works fine, but it happens again once I re-enable it. Now to see if I can figure out what's wrong with the plugin.
In Joomla! 1.5 while the parameters are being saved the implementation is effected/affected(?) by the template in use at the time.
Check your templates index.php, or if present the override for com_content's Blog layout (usually found in yourSite/templates/yourtempalte/html/com_content/category/blog.php
You will probably find the override either doesn't handle the columns or has a bug in it.
Okay so I figured out my own problem. As I stated above, I discovered the problem was with the sh404sef plugin. Apparently anytime you make changes to the menu layout settings, you have to purge your entire SEF URL list and then rebuild it. It seems quite strange that we'd have to do that every time, but I guess that was intentional for some reason. Anyway, it's working now. I just wanted to make sure I posted a solution for anybody else who may stumble across this.

uploaded product images show only on front end

I was finally able to upload product images to a website using magento 1.7.0.2 but the images only appear on the front end and not visible via admin panel. I find it rather strange. Can anyone please tell me how to fix this? I have flushed the cache and reindexed several times but no apparent change.
I know this is an old question, but we had the same problem just now.
It seems that the import we did (the .csv file), missed a few fields, therefore entries were missing in the media_gallery table in Magento.
We couldn't repeat the import again, because the customer has already entered new and fixed a lot of the imported products.
We followed the guide here (thnx MagePsycho) to get the things sorted.
The guide needed a litle bit of fixing (manually entering the table names) since we were doing the fix on Magento 1.8, and had a bit of trouble with the table prefixes.

No Magento Header & Custom Navigation

I can't seem to figure out how to disable the header as a whole. I have installed the blank theme, and have been playing in the page XML, but to no avail. I also cannot seem to switch from 2columns-right to 2columns-left, even though i've run searches for every damn file that includes the phrase and swapped it. I'm wondering if it's just not displaying to me, but I've disabled my catch, repeatedly clear it, and have even tried disabling cookies. Anyway, once all this is done, how do i add static pages and my own navigation.
Sorry I know this covers several questions, but I have been tirelessly searching and experimenting on my own to no avail.
thanks!
I can answer the part about adding new static pages.
Go to Admin , Under CMS->Manage Pages ... choose add new Page
Well, I have some of the problems. I did lots of modification to default/mystore/layout/something.xml but saw nothing happen in the frontend.
Then I did the same modification in default/default/layout/something.xml and now changes where done.
For now for me it seems that I can only modify template files in default/mystore/template but not layout files in default/mystore/layout.
Maybe your issue is the same, that Magento is using the default files and not your theme files?
