Since I disabled "Link to the product page" from configuration and there is no product page, I decided to show comment on category page. But when I took a little look at configuration and database I noticed that comment system is only available in product page and for a single product, not category of products.

So it's not easy to add that to the categories. It's not impossible, but it requires a developer to work on that. Adding jcomments on the listings should be easy on the other hand. You can add such code: Code: <?php $comments = HIKASHOP_ROOT . 'components' . DS . 'com_jcomments' . DS . 'jcomments.php'; require_once ($comments); echo JComments::showComments($this->element->category_id, 'com_hikashop', $this->element->category_name); ?> in the file "listing" of the view "product" via the menu Display>Views and that should do it.
