Hello,
I need to build a website to sell books, with 3 pages : welcome page, catalog page, contact page. All that with Joomla and ... ?
So, I would like to know if I can create this catalog display with HikaShop (other pages not concerned with HikaShop I think):

The catalog page should be divided in 3 parts:
- on the left: the menu, same on all 3 pages, I guess it comes from Joomla and you can select the product category from there (theater, novel, comics, ...)
- in the middle: the products list of the selected category, displayed in a tab form (no images, just the title, the writer and the price of the books, all written on a single line for each book)
- on the left: the selected product detail view. So when the user is selecting a line in the products table, all details of this product are displayed in this area.

Is that possible ?
Thanks

Hi,

For the third point that won't work like that:
When you select a product on the product listing, the product listing will be replaced by the product information page.
Other than that, yes you can do that with HikaShop.
Here is a tutorial to do that:

Thanks Nicolas,
I understand this is the normal behavior: the product page replace the product list.
But is there any mean, perhaps by programming or changing the code, to make the product page display next to the product list, together at the same time on the same page ?

It's always possible if you can program it.
What I would do in that case is this:
create a module to display the product page on the left area of your template and edit the product listing view so that the URL to the product page goes on the current page with an additional parameter to tell the module which product page to display.
