Hi,
The field "vendor_id" is already accessible in the HikaShop import product.
It is not possible to create vendors or specific the vendor name but it is possible to link the product to a vendor thanks to his ID.
The HikaShop import system should be a little bit improved if we want that HikaMarket use it for import.
I don't think it would be useful to implement another import system in HikaMarket, the HikaShop one is quite good but would require one or two more features to be extensible by HikaMarket.
Could you explain a little more the "have a status available/not on the vendor listing page" ?
Do you mean, the product listing page for vendors ?
If so, it is already possible to override the view if you want to add some columns. But it could be interesting to add some useful data, I agree
Thanks for your requests.
