My question is after I complete the hikaSop update to 2.5.0, do I need to be aware of any complications migrating HikaShop to the new platform (3.4.x)?")* Hi, HikaShop 2.5.0 is compatible with both Joomla 2.5 and Joomla 3.4 so the migration of Joomla, if done properly, shouldn't change anything for HikaShop itself.

Updated Hikashop to Latest 2.5 2. Copied all hikashop tables to new site 3. Renamed tables to prefix of new database 4. Installed latest 2.5 for Joomla 3.4.3 and it ran fine with all settings retained etc. Yes tedious but worked and done in less time then trying to debug upgrade errors with Joomla Upgrade process.
