Title: Remove Manufacturer, Availability and Product Dimensions and Weight
Post by: dezineer76hd on January 15, 2015, 14:16:05 PM
Hello,
I am running VirtueMart 2.0.26d
Joomla! 2.5.28
Want to remove
Manufacturer: That Popcorn Shack
Availability:in stock 1000 item(s)
Product Code:
Product Dimensions and Weight
Product Length: 8.0000IN
Product Width: 8.0000IN
Product Heigth: 8.0000IN
Product Weight: 3.2500LB

I have gone into the configuration and unchecked Show Manufacturers  in the templates tab but it still shows up.
Can you give me some insight into where I can remove the items listed above from the products pages.

From the image it looks like the dimension/weight information could be in your product decsription, or as custom fields or hard coded in which case you will have to remove the display code for those items in the template overrides of your commercial template. 

You are also using an insecure VirtueMart version.  http://virtuemart.net/news/latest-news/462-security-release-of-vm2-6-10-and-vm2-9-9b

Thank you for our reply.
I will look into that part of it. for product and description

What about removing the Manufacturer and availability?
Here is a url to one of the pages in question

I will also look into updating VM. The last time I updated it messed the entire site up

If the config does not remove those elements then you will need to edit your template overrides.

The usual "site broken" update problem is related to template overrides. Either the core files were edited instead of being correctly overriden, or the override files themselves need updating.

Looks like a t3 based template? If so all you want to remove are in the productdetails default.php override
