Hello people. I am setting up a virtuemart and in the user register there are some fields with * (mandatory), I need some of these fields are not mandatory .. to turn the code here and I do not think where to unmark ... does anyone know ???
Configuration/Shopper fields. There you can set/unset the Required option. http://docs.virtuemart.net/manual/configuration-menu/edit-shopper-field.html
Hi,
I have a similar question/request...
Currently I have Email, Username, Displayed Name & Password 1 + 2..
All 5 show in the Shopper Field screen as mandatory, with a padlock indicating they come from Joomla! core.
I'd like to not have to force usage of the username & displayed name, but just use mail address.
I'm also redirecting the Joomla! login/registration process for it to use VM ones instead (to be sure we get valid shopper information like phone & address...
Googling got me this page : https://joomla.stackexchange.com/questions/7392/joomla-registration-remove-unneeded-fields
and i will probably try the template override technique that is suggested as an answer. Was wondering if there's an easier way though..
You could also unpublish the Joomla login module and use the VM login in the cart view only. It is not required for the shop and also helps to keep some spambots away.

well in my case that's what i'm doing..
However, when i set fields to be Not Required (displayed name as example) the * disappears from the field but upon saving it still shows as required..
So we can't override the joomla core user fields required.. ?
