For the "compare list", please check your menus/modules options. About the wishlist, I don't see the button so I can't test it.

For "Compare list" I do not find any settings other than following 2 settings in "System->Display": **Activate compare mode** (My selected value is "link") **Compare limitation** (My value is 10) I have checked: 1. System->Plugins 2. Display->Content menus 3. Display->Content modules AND also other setting pages and tabs, but could not find any setting option(s) for "Compare list". The fact is the Compare button was being viewed for a while after I did make the above mentioned 2 settings (in bold), but suddenly it just disappeared. About Wishlist, by activating the debug mode of Joomla!, I could not detect any new errors, a white window appears with the error: "An error occurred", nothing new. ![:(](/media/kunena/emoticons/22.png ":(") Moreover, when a product contains Option(s), "Choose options" button is visible correctly but the "Add to wishlist" button disappears. Sorry, I did deactivate the Wishlist as it was producing error. I have reactivated the module so you can try it.

It use a generic product listing without using menu options. After that you can check the page : [ googledeal.com/fi/products/14-pariisi-ranska.html](http://googledeal.com/fi/products/14-pariisi-ranska.html) You can see in the page a div with the id "hikashop_module_167". It means that if you edit the HikaShop module with id 167, you would find the options for this listing (display add to cart, display wishlist, etc). In the page you would find a div (parent to the previous) with the id "hikashop_category_information_menu_738". As previous but this time with an HikaShop menu, you would find the options for this menu. Your page is a compilation of default option, with menu options and module options.

I am trying to work on turning on the Compare feature. I just created a new test menu item and page (hidden for now during testing) using the hikashop category option/layout. When you go to the product listings page from that new category view, you get the compare checkboxes and everything works fine (option was turned on in the Config/Features tab). However, we had previously created several K2 Content pages that include K2 articles at the top of the page, then added a Hikashop content module (product in div layout) to the lower portion of that page. It works and looks fine for virtually everything. However, it does not have the compare feature/checkboxes on this or any of the other pages like that. I've read the thread above, but I am still not seeing any option to turn on Compare in the various content modules for the hikashop content (v2.1). I have looked in the menu options (those pages are set in the menu as a K2 Content page), the hikashop content module assigned to the page, and nowhere is there an option to turn on or off the Compare feature. I even checked the menu options for the new test menu item for the Hikashop category page, and there is no option there to turn off and on the Compare feature. Is the display of those products controlled by the specific content module, plugin and/or general configuration? If so, I cannot see anything to turn on or off Compare. Is there a master content configuration for all those hikashop content modules we created for those pages that is somehow changing what is showing regarding Compare? Help!!! I am sure it is obvious, but I cannot find it. Thanks.

The comparison feature is only activated on HikaShop listing menu items. It's not the case on your end since the menus are K2 menus. You would have to edit the file "listing" of the view "product" for your frontend template via the menu Display->Views and change the code: JRequest::getVar('hikashop_front_end_main',0) && JRequest::getVar('task')=='listing' && $this->params->get('show_compare') to: true and do the same change in your item box layout view file (probably "listing_img_title" of the "product" view) so that the comparison would be activated everywhere. However, note that the comparison system won't work properly if you have more than one products listing on the page (which is why it is restricted to listing menu items by default).

Each of our menus only show a single selected product category. Would that work? Is the True/False flag in that line of code the 0 after front_end_main? If so, I changed that to 1 from 0 and it did not activate COmpare on those pages.
