Creating a view is just creating a view. You have to include the view somewhere, which means, having a controller and a task which call the view content. So I will recommend you a Joomla article with modules. You can use the joomla extension/plugin "module anywhere" if you want.

For example, the show_img_block (iirc) is setup in a way to output in a certain format. Can I duplicate that but have it reference my custom file? That way I can have both view options depending on which page I want to load?

You can also create a copy of the view while editing the "show_img_block". You will see an input text which allow you to change his name. It's the copy feature. After that you will be able to select your new view and use it. Regards, --- Jerome - Obsidev.com HikaMarket & HikaSerial developer / HikaShop core dev team.

I guess the check is for other than Starter versions. Was hoping to customize as much as I could before upping to Business. I guess I have gone as far as I can. Now another question that is unrelated to the topic; When I upgrade to Business, is it a simple Upgrade thing that won't clear my customizations? If not, can I copy XYZ files to the current install to get Business options without overwriting my custom files?

You will not loose your customizations if you made them via the menu Display > Views of HikaShop or made the override in the folder "templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/html/com_hikashop" Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzI2LXByb2R1Y3QtY2F0ZWdvcnktZGlzcGxheS84NjIwMTctY3VzdG9tLXZpZXc/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation.
