If you want to display the description of the products, you have to change the "type of item layout" from "image and title" to "image and description". For advance usage, you can also create your own "item layout" using the view editing in HikaShop. Regards, --- Jerome - Obsidev.com HikaMarket & HikaSerial developer / HikaShop core dev team.
