I have tested VM 2.9.9e on a staging copy of the live website and in the backend I see no real problems sofar. But on the frontend I have layout artifacts despite the fact that I use css overiride (VM css in template.css)
For example compare page http://staging1.keyboard-centrum.nl/nl/winkel/keyboards with the live site http://keyboard-centrum.nl/nl/winkel/keyboards and see "Prijs", "Basisprijs", "Verkoopprijs (incl. 21% BTW) and "Artikelegegevens" moving around while on the live site everything is nicely aligned.
I hope I get it fixed in time, since I am not a css expert and it already took quite some time.
Regards, Fred
We are now at VM2.9.9.2 so try that one.
Hello,
I am currently installing and let you know the outcome. Installing gives a "big message" and I wonder what it means and if I should do something with it:

The result of upgrade from 2.6.10 to 2.9.9.2:
See the screenshots in the attached pdf

More problems: see again screenshots as pictures tell more than words often: why do I suddenly have "Laatste modellen" (latest models) on the frontend?? And why am I notified that there are updates while there aren't really.
[attachment cleanup by admin]
I also installed the latest 2.9.9.2 version in the test website on the server. Attached is the result. Again I wonder about the quality of the release candidate. Who can help me with the layout errors??
Compare the layout of products on the test site versus live site:
Test site: http://staging1.keyboard-centrum.nl/nl/winkel/keyboards
Live site: http://keyboard-centrum.nl/nl/winkel/keyboards
Why is the structure corrupted?? And how do I get rid of the footer with "Laatste modellen" ????
Thanks for helping me. I am slowly getting desperate, since I have to upgrade few other websites to Joomla 3.3.6, all as volunteer in private time.

Usually using update tables again solves the problem.
Hello,
What do you mean by Update Tables? How can I do that?
Thanks for explanation, Fred
install again or use the tools.
Still very STENO/cryptic. Which tools?
See the pic.

Hello Jenkin,
The result of updating tables is attached. Errors again and in the frontend it didn't help.

I made a new staging copy and upgraded directly from 2.6.10 to 2.9.9.2 without errors this time. And I managed to fix the corrupted template.
But now HOW CAN I GET RID OF THE SAW AND HAND SHOVEL IN THE BOTTOM OF EACH PAGE?

thats the sample date, remove those products
When I remove the sample data (which I never installed !!!!) then I still keep "Laatste modellen" but instead of saw and hand shovel I see two grey thumbnails showing missing images. I want the whole 'featured products, latest models, or whatsever, out.
I dug deeper into the problem and found the solution. You can close the issue
