I have been reading the forums and they say to change some code in certain files, administrator\components\com_virtuemart\html\admin.show_cfg.php for VM 1.1
I don't see the html directory in VM 2.022a. Can anyone help me?
Forget about 1.1 - VM2 is a very different much more powerful beast.
If you mean set the order in which products initially display on the front end the you can do this for each category in the backend by using drag and drop. You must use a category filter to do this.
