Title: can I use modules of VM 1.9 version with VM 2
Post by: raunhar on January 13, 2012, 07:55:21 AM
For 1.9 there were certain modules like, Random Products, top ten products.

Can I use these on the VM 2.0 version.

no, but if you install the AIO component, it has all those in there

AIO does not have Random Products or Top Ten products module.

VM - Best Sales module (installed with aio) can be set to show random products and best sales (top 10) as well as featured and latest products - it is an option in the module settings. Duplicate the module if you need more than one of these options.

Thanks a lot.
One more question.
On the VM product pages, the logo of Paypal is being displayed.
How do I remove that.

But can "best sales" module show a list of products, not with images just simple list like in 1.x virtuemart ?

The product module has 2 layouts, You can add as many layouts that you want, and 1 without the image. You have to remove the image code from the layout

Thanks for your kind answer, but then follows the second question : how to add layout ?

I have only one to select : default.

you copy the file, rename it, and place it in the same folder.
The module will automatically recognize thje layout.

THEN: you edit the file

Thanks, I got it.

Sure some php knowledge is necessary, so maybe will find some pre-made layouts :)

Where can I download the AIO ? I just installed the VM 2 in Joomla 2.5.3 and only the component is shown. Where is the user login, the cart module?

Thanks!

The AIO component is the second one in the com_virtuemart.2.0.x_extract_first package

See http://dev.virtuemart.net/projects/virtuemart/wiki/Installation_of_VirtueMart_2_with_provided_packages

For Joomla 2.5.3 install VirtueMart 2.0.2
