Hi guys,

When I select an category in my webshop, there are no products to show.
Every category contains some products but unfortunetely these categories don't work.

I've got the same problem when I use the module "VM-search in shop" there are no products to show after searching.

I tried to search for people with simular problem but no solution found yet.

I hope anybody is able to help me further.

@RensvN the category template is used to display the search results as well as the category products.
Are your categories published? Are you using any template overrides? Have you tested just using the Beez template?
Suggest you update to VM3.0.3 as a lot of fixes have been made since VM3.0

You should turn off all SEF until the site is debugged and ready to go live, as SEF urls make identification of problems more difficult.

Are your categories published?  - Yes I do

Are you using any template overrides? No, I don't

Have you tested just using the Beez template? Yes I did, but same result. no search results

Suggest you update to VM3.0.3 as a lot of fixes have been made since VM3.0 Done

I didn't put my webshop on the frontpage of my website, It was a bit hidden because it's not working yet.

I don't know how to enter the "homepage" of my webshop without using SEF, because before I used www.myurl/webwinkel to enter it.
You can enter it via this linke but the category selection and search-button are missing then.
When selecting an product and try to go back to category, there are still no products to show.
This url the URL than: /index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=category&virtuemart_category_id=1

hmm - IMHO it has to be your template .

I can see the product but all your cat urls views are empty

http://www.zoolac.nl/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=category&virtuemart_category_id=1

http://www.zoolac.nl/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=category&virtuemart_category_id=3

etc - I don't even see the start html of the cat display template in the source

p.s. your supposed to at a minimum have a menu item (shown or hidden) to index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=virtuemart&productsublayout=0

i.e. the VM homepage view - where is this menu webwinkel?  if exists for testing purposes display it

I think I have found the problem.

I entered my menu manager and than, edit menu-item.
I set page-layout to default instead of no-override and it works fine now.

Many thanks for you help!
