Title: Finding the variable to show the description on the admin order confirm email
Post by: jimleeder123 on April 30, 2015, 12:12:38 PM
I found the file components - com_virtuemart - language- en-GB - en-GB.com_virtuemart.ini which has loads of variables and their associated strings. However I can't find the one to bring up the long description as entered in the admin product area (and shows on the normal front product page).

Does anyone know the variable I need? Is this the right file or should I look in a different one? Thanks.

Hi,
you speak for administrato language, this are not loaded in front-end.
The file you "en-GB.com_virtuemart.ini" is only a translation file, the string are not always associate to a real field.
If you need a specific translation, you can always add or overide it , in the Joomla language overides here:
JOOMLA/administrator/index.php?option=com_languages&view=overrides

Basically I need the description to appear on the admin order confirmation e-mail. I'm guessing I can do this by showing a variable like "COM_VIRTUEMART_PRODUCT_DESCRIPTION" or similar.
