Hello,
What i want to do but i don't know if it is possible is to change the word "manufacturer" to something else or hide it in the url "http://www.mywebsite.gr/index.php/brands/manufacturer/bliddyspam". I have created a manufacturer layout named brands and i dont wish to show that world to customers.
Thanks in advance for your time.
Joomla 3.6.5
Virtuemart 3.0.18
you can choose your own texts in components\com_virtuemart\language\en-GB\en-GB.com_virtuemart.sef.ini
I have enabled sef in virtuemart configuration. I tried to create an overide and also changed the file you proposed but with no luck. only when i enable Translate Strings i get something different which is not preferable cause its not english.
Hi!
I removed "manufacturer" from the url by editing the router
/components/com_virtuemart/router.php
Old code:
$segments[] = $helper->lang('manufacturers').'/'.$helper->getManufacturerName($query['virtuemart_manufacturer_id']) ;
New code:
$segments[] = $helper->getManufacturerName($query['virtuemart_manufacturer_id']) ;
Thanks a lot for sharing, stepan39, fixed it for me.
