Resolved Hikashop Template

Hello Don,

You can make them yourself as you do for VirtueMart. However you must be using CSVI 6 as this is the only version that supports HikaShop.

What do I do, use CSVPro & Custom Import?
Where do I find the listing of fields?
Thanks Again,
Don

Ok I see now. I have to download 6.0 but where do I find it?
In downloads I see 1 Beta 6.0 but says not to use on live site.

Hello Don,

In downloads I see 1 Beta 6.0 but says not to use on live site.

That is because CSVI 6 stable is not yet available. Sure you can use the beta on your live site but do know it is fairly new.

Do know, you can't just update CSVI 5 to CSVI 6, you will need to do a clean installation.

"Do know, you can't just update CSVI 5 to CSVI 6, you will need to do a clean installation."

OK, where and how?
Sorry, I'm confused

Hello Don,

See the Uninstall CSVI tutorial on how to uninstall CSVI completely. It is important to make sure the tables are removed.

What a battle!!
I have installed CSVI into a new installation of Hikashop so no tables to delete. On your page, I need 6.0 for the Hikashop to work but the latest version I see is 5.21.2
I downloaded that, opened in Hikashop, but has no fields at all to put into a upload file for import.
Why can't I figure this out? It has to be something simple!
Don

Hello Don,

but the latest version I see is 5.21.2

Scroll down on the download page, it is below the 5.21.2 version.

You can't use 5.21.2 with HikaShop, since you installed 5.21.2 make sure you clean out the system as mentioned before.

<b>This is a beta release of CSVI 6 Pro. Do not use this on a live site.???</b>

Also, it is a .zip file so we can upload it but comes with all the files extracted. How do I upload?

Hello Don,

The CSVI 6 zipfile is no different than the CSVI 5 zipfile. If the zip is automatically extracted, it is most likely because you are using a Mac and it auto-unzips it.

The installation is just by uploading the zipfile of both the CSVI 6 component and the HikaShop addon via the extension manager.

I got the 6.0 uploaded, can't add field etc into a template.
I give up
How do I delete 6.0?
I'll just make my own CSVI file and go through Hikashop import

Don,

Did you also install the HikaShop addon?

If you want to remove CSVI 6, it uninstalls just like CSVI 5 as I posted the uninstall link before.
