I don't understand why Virtuemart is so complicated! I uninstalled it a while ago and I had a lot of problems removing it fully and now it still making problems in my joomla:

Whenever I make a new menu item, the default link for the menu item automatically shows as:

www.SITENAME.com/com_virtuemart_menu_store/com_virtuemart_menu_store/Menu's Name


What should I do to stop it adding this com_virtuemart_menu_store/com_virtuemart_menu_store to any menu I make??

Thanks

I'm not sure if you understand what I mean, maybe I explained it bad. what odes making a menu item to VM Homepage does to solve my problem?

I made a menu item with external url and linked to VM, but nothing changed.

So it sounds like you have not uninstalled VM completely, including removing the db tables.  Removal advice is in http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=134060.msg465429#msg465429

in the past I uninstalled VM in a wrong way so a thing remained in my plugins list and everytime I tried to remvoe it, it said you have to install vm core first. so I used the instructions and removed all vm tables from DB and all folders from ftp. what else could be the root of problem?

I don't undestand why when I want to make a menu for example for a category in my website, it add this com_virtuemart_menu_store/com_virtuemart_menu_store  to the address?

stray menus still in DB?

check in menus table and remove all with com_virtuemart?

I added

$q = 'DELETE FROM #__menu WHERE `link` = "%option=com_virtuemart%" ';
$db->setQuery($q);
$db->execute();


To the function removeAllVMTables to prevent this.
