Plugins was created by Sapphire

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.4.0
-- Joomla version -- : 3.3.6
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : Firefox 37.0.1

I am trying to configure the Hikashop Social Media and Search plugins. Although I am publishing the plugin and completing all the parameters I am unable to see either the social buttons or the search box on the front end. Is there something I may be missing? I have attached some screen shots to show what I have done.

I appreciate your help.

UPDATE: I seem to have the social media buttons appearing now on my product pages ... is there a way to also show them on the Home page? - The search box is working I think.... but is there a need to change the CSS to make it more attractive... and is there a way of showing product images in the search? Also, is there a way to create a button on my facebook page to connect to my Hikashop store.

Thanks again.

Sue

Hi,

Please check in the view "product / show_default" that the following lines are present:

Code:

<?php
	$this->setLayout('show_block_social');
	echo $this->loadTemplate();
?>

And check that you have the view "product / show_block_social" with that content:

Code:

<?php
//PLUGIN hikashop social
$pluginsClass = hikashop_get('class.plugins');
$plugin = $pluginsClass->getByName('system', 'hikashopsocial');
if (@ $plugin->published || @ $plugin->enabled) {
	echo '{hikashop_social}';
}else{ //backward compatibility added on 31/07/2014
	$plugin = $pluginsClass->getByName('content', 'hikashopsocial');
	if (@ $plugin->published || @ $plugin->enabled) {
		echo '{hikashop_social}';
	}
}

If you have these codes, and the hikashop social media plugin published and set up, so that must be displayed.

Regarding the search plugin, once configured with a correct itemid value, you just have to use the Joomla search module and put it where you want in the page.

Sorry to come back again.

The view I have in product/show_block_social is:

Code:

<?php
/**
 * @package	HikaShop for Joomla!
 * @version	2.4.0
 * @author	hikashop.com
 * @copyright	(C) 2010-2015 HIKARI SOFTWARE. All rights reserved.
 * @license	GNU/GPLv3 http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.html
 */
defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');
?><?php
$pluginsClass = hikashop_get('class.plugins');
$plugin = $pluginsClass->getByName('system', 'hikashopsocial');
if (@ $plugin->published || @ $plugin->enabled) {
	echo '{hikashop_social}';
}else{ //backward compatibility added on 31/07/2014
	$plugin = $pluginsClass->getByName('content', 'hikashopsocial');
	if (@ $plugin->published || @ $plugin->enabled) {
		echo '{hikashop_social}';
	}
}

Is this correct? I still don't see the social icons on my front page.

Thanks

Sue

Hi,

The content of the view is good yes.
But more than content of the view ; the feature requires a system plugin : "hikashopsocial".
You have to check that this plugin is right published (in your Joomla plugin manager).

Thanks for your reply. I do have the plugin hikashopsocial published. I have attached a screenshot of this. I really can't see what to do. Should I have a separate social network extension such as spshare? If so do I need to connect this with hikashop some way. I have also not found a way to show my products in search..

I appreciate your help

Sue

Hi,

I don't see why you keep looking to that view since in your first message you said that you saw the social networks like buttons on the product pages, which is what this view does.
If you want to have social networks buttons elsewhere, you would need to use another extension for Joomla.

Regarding the search, if you don't see any products in your searches, please make sure that you configured properly and activated the Hikashop products search plugin via the Joomla plugins manager.
