Title: VM modules?
Post by: jiapei100 on September 20, 2012, 18:22:28 PM

Hi, all:

Joomla 2.5.7 + VirtueMart 2.0.10
Please refer to      http://foscambc.ca/


At the bottom of leftside bar, there are 5 items

QuoteVM - Shopping cart
VM - Search in Shop
VM - Currencies Selector
VM - Manufacturer
VM - Category


It seems they are the modules from VM, but why are they just showing there? How can I put those things into the sub-menu (page Shopping Cart?)


Best Regards
Pei

Assign the modules to the appropriate Joomla menu item using Joomla's module manager.

Fantastic... However, is it possible to turn VM - Category into a menu item?
Clearly, for my website http://foscambc.ca/
My menu items
QuoteH.264 Products
MJPEG Products
are just duplicated  against the VM module Products (original name is VM-Category)

BTW, the appearance of these modules doesn't look good... Is there any module appearance for us to select?

Thanks jenkinhill, Thank you !!


Cheers
Pei

Module appearance can be controlled by your joomla template css, and with a little editing is easy to style.

Hi, thanks everybody...

Now the only problem is subcategory.
Please visit my website http://foscambc.ca/ .

If you click All Products, or some sub-subcategories, including Indoor Pan Tilt under subcategory H.264, everything seems to be fine. However, if you click the subcategory H.264 Products, only sub-subcategories are showed, but the products under such a subcategory are not shown.

In fact, I summarized a lot of problems about category of VM2.0.10.

Please can anybody solve this problem?


Cheers

Does your "H.264" category have products?

If the products are only in the subcategories they won't display.
To overcome this assign the products both to the parent category and to its subcategories

Thanks man. .Thank you balai...
It seems now, I need to proceed with some coding on those php files?
I really want the review is shown on a tab, rather than at the bottom of the page describing product's details.




cheers
Pei
