I need to migrate all data from osCommerce into HikaShop. Is this functionality built into HikaShop? If so, where is it? If not, is there a guide that details how to do this?

Thanks.

Hi,

This is not a functionality built in HikaShop.
What need to be done is to export the data of osCommerce and import it in Joomla and HikaShop.

For the products you can read that documentation to use a csv file in order to import values:
www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/73-hikashop-import.html

You will have to export the users / addresses / orders / categories / products, etc.

Pity. This may be enough of a problem for many websites using osCommerce that they decide to use VirtueMart instead of Hikashop. You really need a migration tool for all major shopping carts. Just my two cents.

We migrated from osCommerce to VirtueMart and then from VirtueMart to HikaShop. A few kinks but nothing major.

Nice way around, we have the import from osCommerce on our todo list.
Actually we are working on the import from MijoShop (Joomla) - Virtuemart2 (Joomla) - RedShop (Joomla), then we will develop for openCart and then osCommerce
