I want to change email address to which orders is sent. How do I do it??
If I change this (see pic: Shop >> Additional Information), I changed MY user's email address!

I can't hardly be the first who want to change this address. No one knows?

Hello,

VM uses joomal user component. So if you want to change the mail address go to Joomla -> Users -> Users Manager -> select the admin user you refer to and change the mail address.

If you want a different user for storeadmin/admin on VM with diferrent mail address from joomla super user you have to create a new user and give him admin/storeadmin right in VM. After you must enable that user as vendor and disable the previous one (super admin).

Hope it helps.

Regards.

The suggestion is really to try and 1) update to 2.0.10 version  2) try and add another person in Joomla user and make them The super user and then make them the vendor and admin of the site - 3) delete your original person ( yourself I presume) and then re add them and reverse the process.

* really just trying to get rid of that stuck - fields - might help.

Don't lock yourself out of your site-

I saw some get stuck before - an tried this- seemed to work ok.  Similar to bytelord's idea I think.
