Installation, Migration & Upgrade / Re: Upgrade versions

VirtueMart 4.6.4 works on Joomla 5.
The package is bundled with tcpdf.

I always recommend to do a test update on a copy of your site on localhost (WAMPserver, MAMP...) first.
That way you can see if something needs your attention.
And while you are working on your testsite, your production site keeps working.

Virtuemart Development and bug reports / Search, pagination and charact...

Last post by jflash - January 25, 2026, 19:17:37 PM

Hello!

When I enter a search term that contains Estonian characters such as ä, ö, ü, õ - for example, the word "käepi" - and click the search button, the search correctly displays the products that contain this word.

However, when I then change the number of products displayed on the page (for example, from 12 to 24), the page reloads and the search term in the search box changes: the letter ä is removed, so "käepi" becomes "kepi". Naturally, no products are shown anymore, because none of the products contain that word.

Virtuemart 4.6.6 (same on older 4.6 version)
Joomla 5
PHP 8.3.30

Installation, Migration & Upgrade / Upgrade versions

Last post by sohopros - January 25, 2026, 01:01:14 AM

We are currently on Joomla v4., VM v4.2.12 and beginning an upgrade to J5 and PHP8.3
Is VM4.6.4 the best choice for a stable installation?
Does it have a working TCPDF library bundled with it? On the TCPDF github site (https://github.com/vdm-io/tcpdf/issues), it says it is only compatible up to Joomla 4, so we're confused about that and thought we may need a different component. But the VM download page (https://virtuemart.net/download) seems to imply, by the text in the download button, that it comes with a working TCPDF library.

Thanks in advance for the assist!

This is the solution (components/com_virtuemart/router.php at about line 495):

Code Select Expand

$limitstart = intval($limitstart);

                $limit = intval($limit);

                if ( $limitstart>0 ) {
replace with

Code Select Expand

$limitstart = intval($limitstart);

                $limit = intval($limit);

                if ( $limitstart>=0 ) {

Yes, that's correct. It works as a workaround for now, but a final solution would be highly appreciated.

Okay, I see now what you mean. The problem with the pagination started with version 4.6.0 and is not solved until now.
The proposed solution by Jumbo! helps but is not the final solution. The problem you mentioned in your last post remains.

But at least you can now access the first page.

Hi,

if you open this page

https://www.holz-liebe.de/holz-liebe-shop/miniaturwerkstaetten/malermaurer.html

and navigate to page 2, 3 or 4 you can see the correct products. But if you go back to the main shop page

https://www.holz-liebe.de/holz-liebe-shop.html

and open "Miniaturwerkstätten" and afterwards the category "Maler & Maurer", you see the products from the previoiusly opened pagination page, instead of the products 1-10 from the first page.

In the "default" category page URL there is no "results,1-10" and it does not show the first 10 products.

Kind regards,
Tobias

Hello patbe60,

if I add this fix to the router, the pagination works again and adds "results,1-10" to the URL, but if you open the category again from the shop pages the same problem occurs. If there is no "results..." in the URL it is not working and shows the previously opened sub page products.

Kind regards,
Tobias

I checked your site but can't replicate the problem. Everything seems to work fine.
What do you mean with "open the category again from the shop pages"?
