Hello all.
I would like to know how to remove category images completely. Currently it shows the "no image" image which I also need to be removed. The end result should be a 3 x X list of categories with no images.
The site is currently on my local machine so no link. I am using a default version of Virtuemart 2.
Thanks
Harvey
Hi harvey2805,
You know you can have a normal HTML page on the front ( wrapped) - or you can even just have a Joomla Article on the front page and when you type your list you can have your set up page to just jump to
the url of each category - this would stop having to hack or change a template.
there is a little playing with - the home page but you will get the idea.
* Just for ease of option - I would just use an article as you can easily update the article over time and if you wish to go back just change th front page module to your VM page.

thanks for the minimum effort, but you could at least say where to edit those files.
It happens some times in VM, this that should be extremely easy makes you lose hours.
I just don't want to have an image in my category page. Why does it have to be so hard?
VM uses a std. template over ride technique .... this enables you to have almost any display you can imagine with a little research, testing and technical knowledge
The files PRO showed you are where you need to make your changes - surely with a little effort it should be obvious to you what is displaying the images?
Find it and comment it out... you can't expect with free software and a free forum for contributors to do all the work for you..
Have a look at those files - what's the worst that could happen if you make a mistake? You undo what ever change you made.. and try again ..
This is called knowledge accumulation.. have fun with it... learn something...
And there is documentation: http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/templating-layouts.html
