error trying to register
« on: October 20, 2014, 04:49:11 am »
I tried to register using the 'Account Maintenance' menu item. I get the following error:
-------------------
 Fatal error: Call to a member function getInCheckOut() on a non-object in /home/randlieb/craftingtheweb.net/websites/visualrhythms/components/com_virtuemart/controllers/user.php on line 184
------------------
Thanks for any help. If you can tell me what to do with that file I can edit it myself.

I am now able to register, however. I click on the customer account link, even though I am not registered yet, and it takes me to the registration page for VM. I fill it in and click register and get a success page that I must click on the link sent to my email address. I never received the email. My new account is showing in the admin user manager page but not enabled. I have joomla config set to Self to send email to new user to click link to activate.

using VM 2.9.9g on joomla 3.3.6

why do you want clients to validate their registration - no better way to loose clients - if they go to the trouble of wanting to buy from your shop why make them jump thru some more hoops to try and give you some money?

50% will stop there or won't understand or wont be able to find the email or the validation link opens in another browser .. or ....

I see your point about the email link to activate. This is a small store and probably is not necessary. Thanks for the input. It looks like everything else is working now.
