It uses an image or a fix width which results in that problem. You have several solutions: 1. Change the text to make it fit in the button. You can do that in the tab Languages of the configuration of HikaShop by editing your translation file. 2. Modify your template's button styling so that it works properly. 3. Change your template 4. Change the option "button style" from the tab Display of the configuration of HikaShop from "normal" to CSS. That will use the HikaShop custom CSS for buttons instead of your template CSS styling.

Nice catch. ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/8.png ":)") It is interesting to note that I have used this particular template dozens of times in Joomla 1.5 without issue; however, the version I have installed is for Joomla 1.6, so I will pass this along to the template author. To correct this situation in my case, I simply widened the image and corresponding CSS in the tempalate, which was option 2 in your list of suggestions. Again, it is a mystery why HikaShop does this when I use this template. I tried using option 4 in your list, but the style changed so dramatically to a two-toned yellowish color that was in a square container, and that did not look good.
