Hello,
I'm using the latest Joomla 3 and Latest VM 3
When in the backend admin area of VM and I click on shop if I try to edit anything and save I get this error:
Save failed with the following error: Username in use.
But if i'm adding a product or category it saves just fine with no errors.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
Solved my own problem. But I will tell you what was wrong for anyone else:
I transfered my old VM 1 cart to VM 3 even the users. So I have 2 users using the same emails, my old admin account and my new admin account had the same email. I deleted the old account and now I no longer get that error.
All You need to do is as follows:
open your database file with phpMyAdmin
find _virtuemart_vmusers table
change present virtuemart_user_id number on your super administrator id number (it can be found in joomla control panel - Users-Manage)
save settings and njoy!!
Thought I'd record this, as much for my future self as for others!
I had this issue, and it turned out to be my password manager browser extension/plugin, LastPass. It kept changing the username to mine, rather than the vendor's. Once I logged out of the LastPass extension, I was able to save the shopper configuration.
