Account Maintenance in VM2
robertcorsescott:
Hi Guys sorry to be a pain, I am just struggling with a few things and it looks like a few people are.
I have searched the forum high and low for some answers.
Please help:
I am reading about AIO component needs to be installed and this contains all the modules which are required for VM2. I see it in the installation pack but dont really understand how it is to be installed.
Is it just upload like any joomla component? from the extension manager?
Basically I understand that the Joomla Login works with VM now, so we dont need this login module. The registered user is asked for shipping details in the shopping cart process or they are asked to register.
Once registered and an order is placed, how do we set up account maintenance?
Any help appreciated

Hi, I'm also having major issues with VM2! Yes just install the AIO component and it will install all the the cart, category, currencies, manufacturer, product and search modules. Then uninstall the AIO component and your modules will remain.
The problem remains how can users manage their account? I published the default Joomla login but there is nothing VM related there. There is no longer a VM user module or all in one module.
So it seems the only way is to create a new menu item with a link to Account Maintenance. I did this and it almost works - users can edit their billing, shipping address, username, password and so on.
They can also change their shopper group which is dangerous for obvious reasons! They can also view or edit their "Customer id/Internal VM user ID" - I hope this can all be removed in template overrides, I couldn't see it in shopper fields in admin.
Anyway sorry for babbling on! the main issue is still that there is no way for customers to view their past orders that I can find - I must be mistaken?

Agreed, the module only says:
Welcome Super Admin,

AS far as I know you just make a menu link to "VirtueMart List Orders" - you can add this to the user menu for logged in users.

Thanks Jenkinhill, yes I had tried this also but to no avail. I just get "Hello <username>"
Hopefully it is related to not seeing any orders in the backend which I think is fixed in VM2.0.1...
