Title: No Price on the Frontend
Post by: stargazer1682 on November 24, 2015, 01:38:11 AM
I'm build a Virtuemart 3 upgrade of an online store, and I cannot get the prices to show up on the frontend.  I've gone through countless posts on this topic, and even planned to reply to at least one of those posts, but given the auto-prompt recommendation to post a new thread, because of the age since the last activity of said thread, here we are....

I have created a vendor, set the currency, configured the shopper groups to "show prices".  I have tried several alternative, default templates to see if the template we're using is interfering with the option.  I have tried being logged in and logged out on the frontend.  I have set a store owner using the user ID, and subsequently re-congifuged the vendor and shopper information based on that account, since the store owner is not me.  I have even gone into one product and changed the price, since with the upgrade we will be updating the product prices to include shipping costs, in lieu of a flat rate shipping module for Virtuemart 3.  What am I missing?

The upgrade site can be found here: http://simuride.com/jupgrade/our-store

And this is the product page of the product I tried modifying the price for, but still to no effect: http://simuride.com/jupgrade/our-store/alcohol-goggles-bac-of-0-04-0-06-detail

The price html is there so it isn't a template issue

can only be shopper group stuff

set all SG settings back to default .. i.e.

no settings (unchecked) for
Enable shoppergroup specific price display

and nothing set in the price SG -> i.e available for all

When looking for the options you suggested to change, I tried changing the shopper group set for one of the products; it was set to default, so I changed it to Available to All, as was suggested, and just that change made the price visible. 

Thanks

Now I need to research how to use the shopper groups to define different prices based on location; to reflect shipping cost increased for overseas orders...

I'm having this same problem also.  I have already reset VM and deleted the data to start new.

No price on the back end
No price on the front end
No categories created
No vendors created
Settings as you indicate
Base price entered based on ????

I just don't understand what's happening here.  I've used VM before.  One store displays just fine though it was installed almost two years ago and updated a few times.  This instance of VM just doesn't want to play nice.  It can't be the template (from RS Joomla), because the one in question was used successfully for another store and it worked just fine.

I'd be grateful for some help.  Nothing seems to work and it's making me crazy.

Just wanted to update this for others who are having a similar problem.

You MUST add yourself to the store and complete the configuration info in Shop->shop->shopper information

I neglected to do that at first setup because this is a new business and we didn't yet decide which address we were going to use.  Thought this might help others who are having trouble.

Carry on.
