Title: VM2 User Manual
Post by: coville on February 06, 2012, 21:20:22 PM
Hello. After searching the forums I have not been able to find an answer to this questions so I am asking:

The manual on the Virtuemart website is for VM 1.x, is there a time frame to expect the release of an operators manual for VM2.x?

Thank you for your time.

Hi all,
Same question from my side regarding user manual.
In fact, I'm I trying to configure VM2 for virtual goods (downloadable product).
The process is described in VM1 user manual but the tab Download is not available in VM2  :(
Who can help?
Regards,
Joël

Im not sure on the English manual, but I know alatak(Development Team) is working on the French VM2 manual. Im unsure if she is also doing the English one, however if you drop her a PM im sure she will be able to guide you in the right direction.

Looks like folks like me have been asking this question since February 6th, 2012, yet no response from the VM team :-\
The present online manual is totally useless for VM2 for many of the finer aspects, I know documentation is laborious thankless task (been there, done that, got the hypertension meds;), but many of us are desperate for answers that are not forthcoming ???

Why would a product be released without a manual?
I a newbie to VM and finding that the lack of documentation on VM 2.0 is more than a  little frustrating >:(
Is VM2 mature enough to use in a live environment. Should I rather be using VM1.19?

Nevermind, uninstalling VM2.0 - will be loading VM1.19 and looking for alternative shopping marts.

Unfortunately we need a volunteer who can spare a couple of hundred hours or so of their time to write a manual - that is the real reason for having no manual yet. And as more features are being added and processes changed this would be a moving target.

A book should be available soon.
