Hi
I have a number of products that are similar - just need some slight text changes.

When I select a product and click copy - it doesn't copy anything from the product I want copied - it just creates a new product with a product code

What is the purpose of this copy function or is there some settings I need to make?

Thanks

Hi,
The copy function should copy each field of your product, which Hikashop version are you using ? Can you download and install the last version ?
Also you can also use the import/export CSV option if you want to quikly and easly copy and edit each products and category.

I downloaded hikashop from my account only last week so assume its up to date unless there is newer version since then.

I tried it again - it is definitely not copying the product at all. Just doing what I explained above.

I might download an reinstall Hika again to see if that fizes it but nothing went wrong with the install the first time.

Right - I downloaded from my account and now the product copy is working.

And the version is different from the version I downloaded last week.

I think I have asked this question before but it would be good to get email notifications of any updates to the shop we can download. I find the Joomla updater doesn't always work and you still have to go your website to download the latest version of hika.

Hi there,

We just released a new version (2.2.0) so you should check you really are update ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)")
About the joomla's updater it's working but since we just released this last version we prefer to wait for some feedback before enabling the updater.
