Title: front page
Post by: alillowr on April 26, 2012, 01:03:27 AM
How do you make virtuemart the front page when I go to my website.  I tried to do a search but it came up with all kind of topics that weren't related.  I guess maybe it is to basic of a question.  I looked through the different manuals while installing and as far as I saw didn't cover this step.  Is there a manuals that can be applied to the latest version of virtuemart that helps with the first steps?  Ive gone through the basic installation guide, and the beginners installation guide.  Just looking for the next steps.

I guess you are also a new Joomla user? Although the Joomla docs refer to the older 1.5 version of Joomla the principle is the same for Joomla 2.5 - http://docs.joomla.org/Menu_Management

See VirtueMart 2.0 30-Minute Quick Start Guide on http://oscmanuals.com/virtuemart-fdm-26.html

Basically you need to make a Joomla main menu link to VirtueMart / Front page  or to VirtueMart / VirtueMart Categories Layout  and make that menu item the default homepage in Joomla's menu manager.
