Hi

Joomla 3.4.4, VM 3.09

How do I Hide a Module  (eg. VM Categories which appears on Left Position of template) on my Cart/Checkout Page only.

I tried creating a menu item called CART of type VM Shopping Cart.
Under the module assignement tab for the above I tried disabling the module (VM Category).

The VM Category now dissappears from ALL pages instead of just the Cart/Checkout page.

Please give me some ideas how to solve my problem.

Thanks in advance.

You should set the menu assignment in the VM - Shopping cart editor itsef. Set the module to display on all pages except for Cart.

Dear Jenkinhill

Thank you. Problem Solved.

For others...These are the steps.

Under Joomla Menus
1. Create a new Menu (call it Checkout, etc)
2. Create a new Menu Item (call it Cart). Type is VM/Shopping Cart.

Under Extensions/Modules
1. Go to the Module you want to Hide. In my case it was VM Categories.
2. Under Menu Assignment, find the Checkout/Cart Item you just created and deselect it.

That's it.

Regards

Basheer

Or perhaps this way?

Go to Modules.
Select the module you would like to hide the menu in.
Select the Assignment tab.
Scroll down to "Virtuemart".
Select "Exclude".
Select "Shopping Cart".
Save.
Clear Cache.
Should work.

(Using Advanced Module Manager - everyone uses this extension, don't they?) ;)

Nope. In most cases there is no need for yet another extension.   ;)

Ok, but solution is ok, isn't it?

I wrote the last line, just in case I was wrong and this was only a method with AMM installed.

There is more than one way to do it!  AMM is just one way.
