I am trying out Hikashop and am very impressed. Only thing I am looking for is a way to get the Product "Add to Cart" feature in any published article.
Like the SimpleCaddy shopping cart lets you do it by typing:

{simplecaddy code=yourproductcode} anywhere in an article. Even Virtuemart has this feature to add smal code in curly brackets to get the user the ease of adding product to cart.

Any such feature in Hikashop?
I did go through the documentation but nothing struck me as similar.

Thanks.

Hi,

We didn't do a plugin for that as we didn't think that it was really useful. When you edit a product in hikashop you have the button "add to cart HTML link". Upon clicking on it, a popup will open displaying you the HTML you can use to display a link which will add the product to the cart and direct to the checkout automatically. Basically, it's just the URL http://your_website.com/index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=product&task=updatecart&quantity=YY&checkout=1&product_id=XX where XX is the ID of the product and YY the quantity to add.
