Link FLEXIcontent items to HikaShop products
This extension lets editors attach HikaShop products to FLEXIcontent items and display purchase information with them.
This need arises when a Joomla site uses editorial content to explain, review or catalogue products that visitors can also buy. Joomla core provides custom fields for storing and displaying article data, but it does not provide a native relationship between an article and a HikaShop product, nor HikaShop’s cart and pricing controls. A template override could output a known product ID, but selecting products in the administrator, handling several products and respecting shop visibility would require custom development. This extension goes beyond core by supplying a FLEXIcontent field intended for that relationship.
According to the listing, the field can display HikaShop’s product block or selected details such as price, stock, image, name, product code and an add-to-cart button. It also claims product-based filtering on FLEXIcontent category pages and search by product name or code.
It is aimed at shops where product-led articles, reviews, buying guides or catalogues are managed in FLEXIcontent while transactions run through HikaShop. A conventional Joomla site without both HikaShop and FLEXIcontent 5 has no use for it, and neither does a shop that does not need editorial content tied to products.
- The listing marks it free, with unlimited usage, and says it supports all HikaShop editions.
- It requires HikaShop and FLEXIcontent 5; Joomla 4, 5 and 6 compatibility is stated.
- Hikari Software Team has 92 other directory listings shown, while this listing has no reviews. Check documentation, support arrangements, update policy, and how the integration handles custom product options, multilingual content and template overrides before installing.
