Then, maybe you would add a link on the quote request display page to go to another fabrik form so that the vendors could provide a quote to the user. So HikaShop / HikaMarket would almost not be involved in this. Now regarding to possibility to have that in HikaShop / HikaMarket, that's not realistic I think. It's too specific. It could be developed as a plugin to add to HikaShop / HikaMarket but so far, you're the first one talking about that so it's not a priority to work on that for us for now. I would rather recommend to have that capability developed as a custom job.

We sell online training and bespoke training. Online training works fine with Hikashop as that has fixed prices and discounts. However, when we list bespoke training, we have to choose "Free and "No Stock" in Hikashop and tell our customers to email us for a quotation, which is not satisfactory. Is there a way (as a minimum) of replacing the "Free" and "No Stock" with a button that allows them to email us with their contact details? We can then get back to them and sort out a quote. Even better would be the same facility plus a form for them to fill in with their requirements. Hope you can help!

You can use another translation override to change the text of the button to something like "request a quote" for example. And regarding the contact form that you get once you click on the button, you can create additional fields via the menu Display>Custom fields, by creating new custom fields of the table "contact".

Any changes to make and in which file? 2) it si possible to insert the login button inside the form? (which file should I edit?)

That would indeed require custom coding. Supposing that we're talking about the product details page and that you're using the default layout, you would want to add such code : Code: $my = JFactory::getUser(); jimport('joomla.access.access'); $userGroups = JAccess::getGroupsByUser($my->id); $contact = false; if(in_array(XX, $userGroups)) $contact = true; after the code: Code: $contact = (int)$this->config->get('product_contact', 0); in the file product / show_default.php via the menu Display>Views. This will display the contact button only to the users in the user group with the id XX. 2. I don't understand what login button you're talking about ? You mean you want to display a link to the login form instead of the contact button when the user is not logged in ?
