Title: Edit the look of my product layout
Post by: minxb on November 23, 2011, 13:11:12 PM
Hi I'm using joomla 1.5 and virtuemart 1.9.8 and would like to change the way that my product is displayed, when I click on the catergory in my left menu on my web page it take me to the page where the product are displayed but it doesn't look very good with the text on top of the image etc. I used firebug to figure out what I might want to change but am not sure what file to edit or where to find it. Which file do I make changes in to change my product view please?

thank you so which php file do I need to find to change the product view and where do I find it? There see to be a lot of them but I can't find the one that matches the lines that  found with firebug. So I don't actually know which file to edit, I'm really new at this I wanted to instal 1.1.9 but it ept failing and the only one that seems to install properly is 1.9.8 so I've been trying to make that work.

#1: components/com_virtuemart/views/categories/tmpl
#2: components/com_virtuemart/views/category/tmpl
#3: components/com_virtuemart/views/productdetails/tmpl

There are folders you need to take a look in, for product details page, the folder is #3
