Title: Link for module where user can add products from the frontend
Post by: thenorman138 on November 05, 2021, 04:27:04 AM
I've seen references to an old extension that seems to not exist anymore but here's my issue:

Our site allows people to register with a store name and we can then approve them. Once approved, they can add products to associate with their store name. Is there a module that I can use for VM 3.8.8 where the user can click on a link/button on the frontend, once logged in, and add products from the frontend?

as standard all admin views and functions can be accessed from the frontend .. it is just a case of getting your permissions correctly setup

I think the permissions are good to go pretty much, do you happen to know which view I need to hook into for adding the products?

Correct permissions make icons appear in frontend, click on appropriate icon to start adding products.

@Jorgen thank you I'll have to look into that. I have to find which one it is because I want to create a custom button from it

Add a simple module > custom and place your add a product button link
The link is YOURSITE/?option=com_virtuemart&tmpl=component&manage=1&view=product&task=edit&virtuemart_product_id=0
Of course you have to add the users in the specific Joomla group with the right permission and you have to hide this modules per Joomla Access
