Hi,
I want to ask a question about ugrading. I'm using joomla 2.5 plus virtuemart 2.0.
When new versions of the component (vm) is out to upgrade, which of the files are modified?
This is because I have modified some css, product template and so on.
Thanks,
Kind Regards.
For full version updates, eg from 2.0.14 to 2.0.16 a lot of files are changed. That's why the updates are made by installing a full new version.
As for template/css edits these should always be made using overrides so that the edits are not lost. The process for this is very easy. For template overrides see http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/33-templating-layouts.html and http://www.ostraining.com/blog/joomla/overrides
For css overrides, either add your new/revised styles to your Joomla template css or make a custom css file and add a link to it into your Joomla template's index.php
Thanks a lot jenkinhill, my question is solved now. I'm using latest virtuemart version and although I have modified some core files and css of the component, I have an override into my template, so I think the changes won't be many.
I will be around to learn lots of things about the powerful component, which I'm using to suit my clients needings.
;)
Kind Regards.
