Dear Nicolas
Wonder if hikashop able to made use of this free piece of countdown plugin and implement the function in hikashop? The countdown function demand are getting higher day to day
Or even greater, any simple tweet to have the count down shown in product listing and product page? (Since there is already publish end time control in hikashop)

1) In jed many extension type exist ( Component module plugin ) but many are stand alone or implemented for JEvents, google calendar, ohanah , virtuemart. There is no hikashop countdown extension for hikashop until now ?
2) which are the requirement for a hikashop countdown joomla extension to be use in a hikashop specific product item . Could it be implemented by making a plugin that use 3 custom field ( date date price ) and custom change to the php code that retrieve price ( before render for show product and before compute final price) ?

And hope it was going to add in future version soon as a more mature solutions
1. Install thirdparty extension and enable extensions.joomla.org/profile/extension/...nts/allb4u-countdown .
2. Goto hikashop->display->view->product->listing_img_title (may vary depends on your template and view of listing, i am using image with title listing)
3. Find the line below, should be on line 17 onwards
4. Add the code below, code not tidy up yet, you may clean the unnecessary code
5. Remember to install the hide product plugin after sale end date to prevent script error
Hope Jerome / Nicolas can share the link to download the plugin again

Thank you for sharing this.
We're currently working on a countdown system for HikaDeal (another extension to HikaShop to have it work like groupon).
We'll be able to merge it back in HikaShop as an option to have a countdown like you needed.
In the mean time, your code is a great way to have a countdown on the product page.

i ll test the code to learn the logic php code that use plug in ( great way to learn in joomla howto mix mix of php css html jquery) .
Does it mean that if the time is 0 , the product ( call it product1) ll not be renderer in client side and product2 ll appear ?
does it mean we need to create another product ( call it product2 with price2 ) that ll have the same properties than product1 except the price1 > price2 and enable by "range" date availability ?
how ll be manage stock ( quantities) of product1 when count down ll be set to 0 ?
At time=0 , does quantities2=quantities1 ?

When you enter a value into "Sale End Date/Available till" the count down will be triggered if the date is in future
Do remember to install the plugin to hide due product as the original hikashop will have display problem when the product available day is hit
Dear Nicolas
Can share the link to download the plugin to hide product when sale end date hit?

Do you manage to find the display menu? It should be reachable by going Components -> Hikashop
after this you should be able to locate the "Display" menu on Hikashop menu bar,
navigate this menu should be able to find "View",
filter out your "product " & "template" layout , then you should be able to find "listing_img_title" source code
!!!!***You went to template may caused by clicking on wrong anchor text, you should click on "listing_img_title" instead of others***!!!
(take note that i am using "listing with image & title" so i edit this source code, your one may be different)
Hope this helps

Regarding a groupon feature, we're still working on it. We hope to release it before the end of the year. Before that, we'll have an auction feature released (almost ready).
