Hello
In case you have not noticed in vm3 child products are selectable from the category view, this was a great addon but they had to ruin it by redirecting you to the product details view after each selection.
You can check it here
http://demo.virtuemart.net/default-products with any of the products at the lower part of the site.
The only one that does not redirect you is the "simple cart variant". No stock control, no unique photos, descriptions or dimensions and the price gets added from the parent so if you were thinking of changing your child products to cart variants like me... we are doomed there also, useless.
-------------------------------
I spoke with Max Milbers and the cost for solving this and he said around 500 € which of course I'm not gonna pay alone for something that should be have been done right from the start but I'm happy to pay this with other users.
I told him about hiring an indian programmer or someone cheaper but I encounter the risk of the code being of poor quality and not getting added to the core.
------------------------------
We need child products to reload and stay in the category view without forcing the customer to a page he didnt choose. Any user that finds this redirect annoying contact me by private so we can help them develope this. They are never gonna change this without paying them, thats something I learned.
If any of the programmers here is capable of solving this issue in a way it could be added to the core please contact me.
I have no problem paying but not 500 € where I could buy 5 copies of Hikashop or Eshop which already make things how they are supposed to be made.
PD: I just wished sometimes you programmers had a bit of pride to release quality products and improve your system. This redirect is bullshit, nonsense and I cant believe no one is complaining for this crap.
