I didn't see any HikaShop category or HikaShop product being displayed on your website. To display HikaShop categories/products on your frontend, I invite you to follow the tutorial that we have on that here: [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/6...splay-front-end.html](http://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/67-hikashop-content-display-front-end.html) Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzMyLWNvbnRlbnQtY3JlYXRpb24vODYyMjI1LWNhbi1pLXVzZS1teS1jdXJyZW50LW1lbnU/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[karendanaher](/forum/user/28227-karendanaher "View karendanaher's Profile")** - [![karendanaher's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/28227-karendanaher "View karendanaher's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/28227-karendanaher) Less More - Posts: 16 - Thank you received: 0 - - 13 years 1 month ago [\#124639](#124639) by [karendanaher](/forum/user/28227-karendanaher "View karendanaher's Profile") Replied by *[karendanaher](/forum/user/28227-karendanaher "View karendanaher's Profile")* on topic *[Can I use my current menu](/forum/32-content-creation/862225-can-i-use-my-current-menu#124639 "-- url of the page with the problem -- :http://thehawaiiconcierge.com/index.php/maui -- HikaShop version -- :HikaShop Starter: 2.2.1 -- Joomla version -- :2.5.14 -- PHP version -- : 3.3.8.1 -- Browser(s) name and version -- : Firefox I'm a newbie and don't really know what I"m doing.

I've looked at that before but I'm still confused and I'm sorry if I sound like an idiot ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/8.png ":)") . I guess what I need to know is do I have to replace what I have already on the site - the Maui activities menu with a Hika Shop menu or can I use what I have? I need to be able to have the user click on the category then click on the article and be able to place the order from the article. I'd be willing to pay for tech support if you could let me know what package I need to buy to have someone show me how to do it. If someone can get me started with the first few I can take it from there. Thanks again. Aloha!

The menus you have are Joomla categories/articles menu items, they can't display HikaShop categories/products. There is nothing complex. Simply follow the step by step instructions of the tutorial I gave you and you will directly see your HikaShop categories/products on your frontend. On top of that, there are already pre configured menu items installed by default when you install HikaShop. For example, if you set as default the HikaShop categories listing menu item that you will find in the HikaShopd default menu of your joomla menu manager, you will directly see a listing of your HikaShop categories on the home page of your website.

You just have to create a menu type "product listing", and select the category of these products. In the menu options, you can enable "Display add to cart button", and many other options. To not link to the product page, there is an option too for that, "Link to the product page".

I want the hika menu to link directly to the article where there will be an "add to cart" button. Is this possible?

For this part it is only Joomla related, HikaShop is not involved. After that, in your Joomla article, thanks to the plugin "insert product tags" that Nicolas gave you ( [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/1...-product-insert.html](http://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/137-hikashop-product-insert.html) ) you can insert an HikaShop product into an article (with the "add to cart" button etc).

What i was missing was the fact that I had to have my Joomla menu rather than the Hikashop menu. Perfect!! I am on my way..just a few more tweaks and hopefully it will be smooth sailing.
