Hi,

You don't need to look far, the documentation helps - like almost always: [ www.hikashop.com/support/support/documen...ig.html#display\_divs](http://www.hikashop.com/support/support/documentation/54-hikashop-config.html#display_divs)

According to this, set the layout of the div to "Image and description". As you can 'override' this default configuration for any individual listing menu/module, make sure in those it's set to either the same, or at least "Inherit".

"readmore" is a standard Joomla system function/tag. Depending on which editor you're using when entering/editing your product description, you should have a button for inserting it at the cursor position.
