Product creation / Re: COM_VM_CUSTOM_FIELD_VARIANT_PRICE not show

I just use two cart plugins for a good onepagechechout and for the shipment by payment method. But this is just the similar VM custom field with caracter. So I set the + price and write there the custom text, and that display below the product price. There is 0 with FREE text, and + XY money with this COM_VM etc. text.

Virtuemart Development and bug reports / Re: Image resize, more variations

You do go to tyhe product page where those files are coded to display? The files are generated only when required to display in the frontend.  Or am I mis-interpreting what you are trying to do?

Virtuemart Development and bug reports / Re: Image resize, more variations

« Last post by EvanGR on Yesterday at 16:00:04 »

Hello,

It seems that displayMediaThumb does not generate new thumbnails when I call it from the template file.

e.g. for testing I am doing this..

Code: [Select]

$thumbfile = $product->images[0]->displayMediaThumb("",true,"rel='vm-additional-images'", true, true, false, 280, 280);
$thumbfile = $product->images[0]->displayMediaThumb("",true,"rel='vm-additional-images'", true, true, false, 200, 200);
$thumbfile = $product->images[0]->displayMediaThumb("",true,"rel='vm-additional-images'", true, true, false, 160, 160);

Then I look into the product/resized folder, sort files by last created, and do not see any files with the sizes given above.

Any idea?

almost as if Joomla doesn't read the states directly from configuration.php but stores them elsewhere .. can't find anything like this though (DB or xmls etc)

but the problem is repeatable

just changed and saved the config but it doesn't change in JAdmin -- no caches etc configged..

hmmmm

debugging directly in administrator\components\com_config\model\application.php the correct state is shown but the select still doesn't update

and directly at the form template still shows wrong even though $this is correct  [dbtype] => mysql

administrator\components\com_config\view\application\tmpl\default_database.php

ah....  there is no mysql value

<select id="jform_dbtype" name="jform[dbtype]" style="display: none; font-family: Arial;">
   <option value="mysqli" style="font-family: Arial;">MySQLi</option>
   <option value="pgsql" style="font-family: Arial;">PostgreSQL (PDO)</option>
   <option value="pdomysql" selected="selected" style="font-family: Arial;">MySQL (PDO)</option>
   <option value="postgresql" style="font-family: Arial;">PostgreSQL</option>
</select>

so if config is set to mysql it just defaults to the 1st one which is mysqli

Virtuemart Development and bug reports / Re: Use customer's email address as vendor email's reply-to address

Hi think that the problem is due to GMAIL web because from GMAIL App (Android) you will be able to answer. Please check it and try also another email client.

oddly I had exactly this problem yesterday with a site upgrade...
and this is the weird part...

In Joomla admin config it clearly showed mysqli  in the dropdown but VM still said mysql on install.
The installer takes this directly from the configuration.php

      $config = JFactory::getConfig();
      $type = $config->get( 'dbtype' );
      if ($type != 'mysqli' and $type!= 'Jdiction_mysqli') {
         JFactory::getApplication()->enqueueMessage('To ensure seemless working with Virtuemart please use MySQLi as database type in Joomla configuration', 'warning');
         return false;
      }

when I checked the configuration.php by ftp it did say public $dbtype = 'mysql';

I have no idea how this can be possible but manually changing this to public $dbtype = 'mysqli'; and the upgrade worked fine
