Title: How can I find the specific file for customization?
Post by: Wagner Netbiis on February 16, 2012, 19:45:51 PM
Hello guys, first of all, many thanks for all the work on this project, it's amazing!

I understand the difficulty to make the docs, but I'm on 2 days searching all the web and forum, and I can't find the specific files to customize the front end.

I attached an example pic, it's the home page, I want to do things like.. show the child categories in the bottom of these main categories, where can I do this?

I read about the views stuff, but i can find the specif file about the 'home', where show the categories in home.. to I insert my custom content here...


thanks!

Look at the page url. It will include something like "&view=productdetails" 

So if you have no template override already set, then the file to edit will be
joomla_root/components/com_virtuemart/views/productdetails/tmpl/default.php
