HikaMarket, the multivendor add-on for HikaShop has a new major release!
It includes the full support of HikaShop 4. Also, almost all views have been refreshed with a new design
Required HikaShop version : 4.0.0 or newer
HikaShop 4.0 has just been released and it provides cool new features and a new design for the arrival of Joomla 4. Thanks to HikaMarket 2.0 and its transaction system, we were able to start the work on the order creation for the vendors.
With our Joomla 4 tests, we wanted to give a big fresh up on our interfaces so we started to create new designs for the front-end.
If you already updated to HikaShop 4, you saw the new customer panel which is one of the new designs we made.
Since HikaMarket 3.0.0 is a major release, please do not update your live website without proper tests.
What's new:
Features
- Lot of re-designed interfaces
- Order creation in the front-end, even for vendors!
- Geographic location for vendors with a map in their vendor page (using openstreetmap)
- Vendors cannot edit the email content anymore but can add a customized message and select what details they want to send
- New plugin "vendor pay taxes"
- Support of the HikaShop preview of emails
Improvements
- Support of billing/shipping addresses in the customer edition
- Usage of FontAwesome 5 icons provided by HikaShop 4
- Nameboxes now have a resize capability
- Important modifications of the control panel statistics organisation
