Thanks")* Hi, I don't know what com_dacshop is but it's not a HikaShop file you're loading if you have com_dacshop instead of com_hikashop. I tried to load the helper of HikaShop in a onPreprocessMenuItems trigger of a system plugin and do overrides of com_banner translations and it worked just fine. Please note that next version of HikaShop will have use that trigger to remove the different menu items based on the ACLs and it won't load the HikaShop helper (to avoid having to load it on every page of the backend which is not really nice).
