The only solution will be to migrate your website to Joomla.

So install Joomla, and where it asks for the folder name, put something on there like /products. Install hikashop on that Joomla site, create your shop and get a link to that shop. Then all you have to do add that link to your Wordpress menu, and call it Products or whatever. When people click on that link, it will take them to https:// yourwebsitename.com/products and they can order from there. Easy peasy and Bob’s your uncle! Good luck!

I think a Wordpress edition would be very popular.")* Hi, It's true that WordPress has overtaken Joomla and that our extensions would have more exposure on WordPress. However, as you mentioned, WordPress already has WooCommerce which is quite nice already. Also, the biggest issue is that HikaShop has been made for Joomla. It can't easily be ported for WordPress. Akeeba's developers have made a special abstraction layer between their extension and Joomla, years before they could then make them available for WordPress. And even so, they have way less interfaces and integrations than HikaShop has with other things. There is a good reason why no other Joomla ecommerce has ever been ported to WordPress: The amount of work is huge because of the amount of interfaces, plugins, modules, etc. Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzYyMDI2LXJlLWhpa2FzaG9wLWZvci13b3JkcHJlc3M/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation.
