Hello,
When clicking on a product in a menu showing a category of products the product is not displayed with a template. This is really not the goal !
I spent my day on that problem and found the reason.
This occurs in the creation of a menu and Menu Item Type is Category Layout in the Virtuemart category view settings tab if Show categories is set to NO.
I do not know wether it is a virtuemart problem or a template problem. But it worked well before I updated virtuemart to 3.2.2 (still under joomla 3.6.5).
I hope that this will help you find and correct this bug.
Regards
Kris

Hello Milbo,
Thanks for being so quick ! but I think I was not clear in my question, because your answer was not what I expected.
In fact since update to virtuemart 3.2.2 the product layout is not rendered as before the upgrade. And above all, it is different when accessing from the category menu or from a direct link to the product page ! Does it make sense to you ?
Here is the discussion I started at the beginning of my investigation on the template provider, if it can help :

Read only my first post because I think I got confused and lost and the rest is not sure.
I hope you can help, because I am blocked. I can give you an access to my testing site with admin access as well as ftp account if needed (in private).

Kris
P.S. : If it helps more...
I have seen something. There is a difference in the link that works well from a module (though I am not happy of the %C3%A9 meaning é in french) :
http://localhost:8888/la-boutique/adhesion-revues/formules-dadh%C3%A9sion/consultation-des-actes-publications-detail.html
And this is the link from the virtuemart category menu and it displays a wrong layout
http://localhost:8888/la-boutique/adhesion-revues/consultation-des-actes-publications-detail.html
If you want to see it working on the online site (not upgraded) just replace http://localhost:8888 with http://www.cgla44.fr
If you want to see on my testing site (home) replace localhost by my ip that you can see under my post.
I checked this 2 links on the site that is online and they both work correctly with virtuemart 3.0.16 and joomla 3.6.5
On my test site, with virtuemart 3.2.2 and joomla 3.6.5 there is the bug. See image on the gavick forum (first post)
