Title: Products Not Displaying
Post by: dazbusby on January 12, 2016, 15:36:44 PM
Hi all, I have installed VM on my website and everything is working as it should, except for when you drill down to the products in the categories, no products show at all, in any category.
I have added stock, images, prices etc.
Have I missed some really obvious tick box or something?
Ive used an older version of VM previously on a different website and never had an issue with it?

Any advise or pointers would be appreciated.

Cheers
Daz

Did the VM sample data products display OK?

To be fair, I dont know if they did or not, as a previous user I just went from installation through to population of the categories etc.

I had a look at your link and I have to admit to not putting version numbers which is something I always do, apologies!!
Im using J 2.5.24 I cant update as the template is not 3 compatible and the client loves it :( and VM3.0.8. Hope that might help.

My main issue (and I havent looked) is if I was to uninstall, can I save out my products and restore them easily enough as there are quite a few

Cheers
Daz

well .. a re-install will renew all files and keep your data

have you tried with Beez etc?  or disabled any template over rides etc

For security reasons you should be using Joomla 2.5.27 with the latest patch applied, and VM3.0.12. Assuming you are working on a backup of the live site, update the versions there to check for template compatibility and to see if it fixes your problem, and if not, switch to Beez and see if all is OK there.

Ok, im now using Joomla 2.5.28 and VM3.0.12, I have also tried using beez and atomic templates.
The only product that is displaying is the featured product, i can add this to cart and go through the motions of purchasing?
All products are published in the back end and are in the correct categories.
The categories all show up fine on the front end but when you go into them, no products!

Any further help appreciated :)

Thanks in advance.
