It's coming from the fact that HikaAuction depends on Hikashop's cron which isn't triggered as you're using a Free version of HikaAuction. We're actually working on the development of an HikaAuction cron for the next HikaAuction version, so that it won't depends on the Hikashop Cron. If you can wait for the next HikaAuction version it will be a good solution, else using a commercial version of HikaShop will do the job. > I would have also expected to be directed to my HikaShop shopping cart to make payment! Does HikaAuction allow you to pay for an item won using the HikaShop cart and payment plugin? Sure, a link will be sent to the winner so that he can be redirected to Hikashop's checkout with the auction's product and with the correct winning price. But emails actually can't be sent without HikaShop's cron, that's why we're working on an HikaAuction cron. We're sorry for the inconvenience it may have caused, so we'll try to develop that feature as soon as possible. Kind regards, Mohamed Thelji.

I doubt the new version of HikaAuction will be ready before then?? If I have to purchase a commercial version of HikShop simply to be able to achieve this, perhaps you might be able to offer some discount in light of the fact your website stated HikaAuction is fully functional with all versions of HikShop. I am doing this voluntarily on behalf of a charity...

I doubt the new version of HikaAuction will be ready before then?? The new version is actually ready with an HikaAuction Cron system. You'll just have to download the last HikaAuction version through our website, and set up a CRON like it's explained in Hikashop's documentation, but with the HikaAuction's Cron URL that you can find via "HikaAuction->Configuratinon" : [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/5...-cron-task.html#cron](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/55-hikashop-cron-task.html#cron) Kind regards, Mohamed Thelji Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzUyLWhpa2FhdWN0aW9uLzg5NzMwNC1iaWRkaW5nLWVtYWlsLW5vdGlmaWNhdGlvbnM/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[info@flashpoint.net.au](/forum/user/12203-info-flashpoint-net-au "View info@flashpoint.net.au's Profile")** - [![info@flashpoint.net.au's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/12203-info-flashpoint-net-au "View info@flashpoint.net.au's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/12203-info-flashpoint-net-au) Less More - Posts: 42 - Thank you received: 1 - - 7 years 6 months ago [\#306055](#306055) by [info@flashpoint.net.au](/forum/user/12203-info-flashpoint-net-au "View info@flashpoint.net.au's Profile") Replied by *[info@flashpoint.net.au](/forum/user/12203-info-flashpoint-net-au "View info@flashpoint.net.au's Profile")* on topic *[Bidding email notifications](/forum/52-hikaauction/897304-bidding-email-notifications#306055 "-- url of the page with the problem -- : www.roady4roadies.com/online-auction/red...hilli-peppers-guitar -- HikaShop version -- : 4.0.3 -- HikaAuction version -- : 3.0.0 -- Joomla version -- : 3.9.4. -- PHP version -- : 7.2 How do I set up email notifications whenever a bid is made?")* Hi Mohamed, I have installed the new version of HikaAuction, and can see the link to the cron task: [ www.roady4roadies.com/index.php?option=c...ron&task=executeCron](https://www.roady4roadies.com/index.php?option=com_hikaauction&ctrl=cron&task=executeCron) The link simply goes to a blank page of my template.!

As you can see through the screenshot I attached, the "Auction Roady4roadies 2019..." was validated and emails were sent. you can now check the last emails that were sent via "Hikashop->Customers->Emails".
