Hello,
I installed plugin vmimport to add products into article content. But there is problem, that it shows long description of products info and I need short.
Could you please help me how to reach it? I have this code:
<?php if($showProductDescription){?>
<div class="product_desc_container" style="color:<?php echo $desc_color;?>">
<?php echo $list->product_desc; ?>
</div>
<?php } ?>
I tried to change it by product_s_desc, but it does not know it.
Thank you
Hello psm this, I found answer to that question here: http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=106587.0
The right one is <?php echo $this->product->product_s_desc ?>
and better to use
if (!empty($this->product->product_s_desc)) {
<?php echo $this->product->product_s_desc;
} ?>
$this refers to the current product. The code that you post is for category page.
More information regarding $this vs $product explained here: http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=100696.0

Hello, thank you for response, I tried exsctly this solution also befroe, but it is not working in joomla article. And I do not know why.
Use print_r or var_dump to see the $list content
Check with the Dev, I dont mean that this is a Virtuemart team plugin ?
You have to modify the default.php file of the joomdev plugin, not the tmpl/default.php.
The plugin simply doesn´t put the product_s_desc in the $list structure. You have to make it happen. This is done in the main file for the pugin not the tmpl file.
