Title: product admin panel looks strange
Post by: 2cool on April 10, 2025, 15:38:09 PM
after updating to vm4.4.4 I noticed the product admin panel looks wierd?
All filter options are full width? or is this on purpose

It seems you are using the old admin.

Go to Components > VirtueMart > Configuration > tab:Shop
Scroll down to block:Advanced Settings
Set New Admin Template to Yes

Also update to VirtueMart 4.4.6
4.4.4 has an annoying issue with (not) displaying images.

Yes, I am.

If you prefer to test updates before applying them to your production site I recommend installing your site locally on your computer.

Use WAMP/MAMP as a local webserver.
And use Akeeba Backup + Akeeba Kickstart to install your site locally.

You can test updates/changes before applying them to your production site.
This way you'll know what to expect.
And when something does go wrong, nothing is lost. Just re-install the backup.

Meanwhile your production site is running normally.
