Title: [Solved]: VM Product details pages not showing
Post by: chrisrbk on April 22, 2015, 14:42:40 PM
Hello everybody,
I'm having a grave issue with my site on Joomla 3 with Virtuemart 3.
Unitil yesterday evening everything was ok , but this morning when I click on the "more details", "product details" or the image of the product, it shows the detail page path but send me to the category page. It's impossible to reach the single product page.

The test site here http://www.easylabs.it/test/en/ (http://www.easylabs.it/test/en/)

What could have happened?
Please, could anybody help me?

Thank you very much for any help,
chrisrbk

Hi
thank you for your quick reply.

I'm using Joomla 3.3.6 and Virtuemart 3.0.6.2 and PHP 5.5.22.
I'm working on a Gavick template (shop and buy template).

The only thing I did yesterday night was the definition of shipment and payement, and everything was working fine.
Now I unpublished the shipment and payement methods but product links to the details still send me to the category page.

I can only see the product page that I have linked to the menu. I really can't understand.

Can I give you more details?
Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thank you,
chrisrbk

Thank you GJC,
I switched off Search Engine Friendly URLs in Joomla Global Configuration and the links work fine, not with the same template but they work.

So, what do you think I have to do to restore the site as it was before (SEF enabled)?
What happened?

Thank you

I finally found that SEO suffix field in virtuemart configuration was empty.
I filled it with "-detail", as I've seen in another forum and everything works fine.
I really don't know how it could have happened...

Sorry for disturbing you and thank you for your attention,
