## Installation

- 1) Download the module on our website via the download link provided to you after the purchase.
- 2) Install it on your Joomla website via the extension manager or via the "install plugin" button of System > Plugins on Wordpress.
- 3) On Joomla, go to Extensions > Modules, find "HikaShop Comments" and configure it.
- 4) On Wordpress, you will have a block "HikaShop Comments" which you can add to your pages and you'll be able to configure its settings.

## Configuration

- **Number of comments**: how many recent comments to display (default: 5).
- **Ordering**: choose between Latest (newest first), Random (random selection on each page load), or Most useful (comments with the most "useful" votes first).
- **5 stars only**: when enabled, only comments with the maximum star rating are displayed.
- **Carousel**: when enabled, only one comment is displayed at a time and it automatically slides to the next one.
- **Carousel delay**: time in seconds between each slide transition (default: 5).
- **Progress bar**: display a thin progress bar at the bottom of the comment showing the time remaining before the next slide.
- **Alternative Layout**: the layout of the comments. Default is the module's own. To change the HTML, create an override of mod\_hikashop\_comments in your template: the default override replaces it, and a copy saved under another name in the same folder appears in this list. For colours and spacing, CSS rules on the module's classes are enough.
- **Module Class**: CSS classes added to the module's block, to style one module differently from another.
