That's actually on our TODO list with a lot of other features so we can't give you any ETA for the moment, that's why we also explained you which file needed to be edited if you wanted to adapt it with how auctions work in your country, as HikaAuction is only working like main online auction system does. We're actually sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused but we had to work on the compatibility between HikaAuction and the future Joomla! 4 version. If you encounter any bug with HikaAuction will fix it as fast as we can, but HikaAuction is actually working as mains online auction system, and we also planned on improving HikaAuction but we just have a lot of projects in our TODO list. We really thank you for your feedback and we'll try to work on it as soon as we can and keep you updated about it. Kind regards, Mohamed Thelji.
