Hi all,
Have a problem in that I'm using a different template for the e-commerce section of the site, all works well until you hit the "Show cart" option, it displays in the template I used for the non-e-commerce part of the site. I've changed the template settings in VM and the menu item that points to the e-shop to use the e-commerce template (Beez3) but still have this problem.
Any ideas?
Cheers
VirtueMart 3.0.12
PHP 5.5.12
Joomla! 3.4.8 Stable
Hi,
The team decided to remove the SEF link to the cart vm in 3.0.12, maybe the problem is there?
Some in the forum, have revert the code manually to have the standard Joomla link or perhaps you need to add a Joomla menu link to the cart.
Thanks for that, will try that.
Cheers
Sorry to bang on about this but I've tried to alter the code in the mini.cart.php file but can't get it to work, is this the correct file?
Thanks
Cheers
there's no such file in VM3 ..
there is mini_cart.php but think it is only for backward compatibility
if u mean for the popup of the add to cart function it is
components\com_virtuemart\views\cart\tmpl\padded.php
Thanks for the reply, sorry, I did mean mini_cart.php
I'll experiment with components\com_virtuemart\views\cart\tmpl\padded.php
Cheers
Hi,
Not having much luck here, I've included an image to show things a bit clearer.
If I click on the "show cart" in the LHS module. the correct template (Beez3) displays.
If I click on "show cart" pop-up, it displays the site default template which I don't want.
Strangely, if I delete this line: echo '<a class="showcart floatright" href="' . $this->cart_link . '">' . vmText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_CART_SHOW') . '</a>';
in the padded.php file, it doesn't make any difference.
Any tips.
Cheers
padded is definitely the popup
I just fixed a module display prob in the cart page by adding $this->cart_link . '&Itemid=xxx'
but on the left that is the module
the link comes from $data = $cart->prepareAjaxData(); in modules\mod_virtuemart_cart\mod_virtuemart_cart.php
prepareAjaxData() is in the FE vm helpers/cart.php

A solution is to exchange $this->cart_link with the real llink
jRoute::_('index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=cart')This should give you the right link, if the Joomla menu have an associate menu item to this link.
Else you can force the menu item as explained by GJC Web Design
Thanks for the replies folks,
I'm not sure how I should insert this link, this the original code from padding.php file, I would be grateful if you could show me what I should be inserting & where please.
Thanks in advance

Hi folks,
Played around with those suggestions but can't get it to work, I must be doing something wrong.
To make it easier for all I have uploaded to my server, please have a look here: http://www.codefarrier.nz/
Please click on the "e-shop" menu tab, I've setup a temp demo shop. If you view the cart by clicking on the "VM - Shopping cart" show cart, everything looks correct but click on the show cart that is within the pop-up and it loads the wrong template. Templates has been set in VM config to Beez3.
Your words of wisdom please.
Cheers
have you set some menu to Virtuemart cart with right template? because this link need it.
Note; you don't need to assign any modules to this menu
Thanks but it still doesn't work. I tried unpublished the e-shop menu tab in the main menu, created a new menu with A VM Front Page link and that doesn't work either.
I can't understand why the "show cart" works in the LHS module but not in the popup box?
I don't know too much about PHP but isn't it just the wrong code in this line from the padding.php file?
echo '<a class="showcart floatright" href="' . $this->cart_link . '">' . vmText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_CART_SHOW') . '</a>';
Cheers
of course not wrong.. it is a link formed in the cart helper ...
have u done this?
$newlink = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=cart');
echo '<a class="showcart floatright" href="' . $newlink . '">' . vmText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_CART_SHOW') . '</a>';
or this with the menu id you made?
$this->cart_link . '&Itemid=xxx'
It worked!
$newlink = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=cart');
echo '<a class="showcart floatright" href="' . $newlink . '">' . vmText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_CART_SHOW') . '</a>';
I know I tried that before and for some reason it didn't work, anyway it's working beautifully now, thank you very much for your help and patience.
Cheers
Phew........
