Hikashop on any J3 template?

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Hello, I'm redesigning an eCommerce site which I originally built in osCommerce. - www.uncommonhound.com
I love JoomlaBamboo templates and have looked at quite few, including New Lifestyle, Client, Arcadia, Grid3 and Zenbase. I'm having a hard time picking the one I want to use. What are the advantages of using the New Lifestyle template over other Joomla 3 templates? What exactly does "support for Hika Shop" mean? I am using Hikashop Business version.

I'm relatively new to Joomla 3 but have a quite a bit of experience editing php and css. A unique design is important for me so I know I will be customizing any template I use extensively (which makes me think maybe I should start with Zenbase) I just wondered what I will be missing by not using a template made for Hikashop?

I was also wondering if you're planning on updating the Lacuna template to Joomla 3? I really like that one (although the preview link currently leads to shopIgnition)

Thanks in advance!

Hi

Welcome on board :)

It means that styling for hikashop is included in the template - it will save you some time rather than creating styling from scratch

You may also want to check out the Base3 theme as a starter template

At the moment updating Lacuna to J3 isn't imminent I'm afraid

Thanks for the heads up on the link I will fix that tomorrow (2am here at the moment :)

Cheers
Paul

Thanks for the welcome Paul and for you lightning fast reply!

I'll check out Base3. Right now I'm playing with Arcadia.. what a fun template!

I'll let you know which one I choose when I get along further. :-)

Cheers!
