Hmyeah...
We need more information: Joomla version, VirtueMart version, etc.

Can you post the URL to your webshop so we can see the code.

Can you post the Joomla Forum Post Assistant?

3rd party extension / Re: Simple VM4 Product Cart Va...

Last post by fasterjoomla - September 22, 2025, 23:53:34 PM

Thank you @AH great plugin!
The language format is now incompatible with Joomla 5.3.3, it just wouldn't load any translations at all. Newlines are no longer allowed in the ini files.

I simply removed all space from VMCUSTOM_QVARIANT_EXAMPLES and it works like a charm.

I cannot upload the updated file, just remove all newlines in the string VMCUSTOM_QVARIANT_EXAMPLES in en-GB.plg_vmcustom_qvariant.ini and empty en-GB.plg_vmcustom_qvariant.sys.ini as it's not used in the name or description.

The file en-GB.plg_vmcustom_qvariant.ini should look like this:

Security (https) / Performance / SEO, SEF, URLs / Dynamic links

Last post by lombiz - September 22, 2025, 19:03:57 PM

Hi,
I have had problems with virtuemart creating dynamic links like .search, by product , descr etc
Try to handle it with robots.txt to dissallow and removal with gsc.

It is really bad for seo.
Isn't there a way to turn this off so I dont have this problem
All my links from web are sef and looking good.

Thanks in advance!

Hi ViPeS,

Are you talking about: https://shop.st42.fr/en/products/multi-language-for-virtuemart.htm ?

It seems it's not compatible with VM4.

I also have a problem with canonical URL: While scanning my VirtueMart product pages with Google Search Console and Screaming Frog, I received a warning stating that I don't have canonical URL. When checking the <head> section of my product pages, indeed, I couldn't find any trace of a canonical URL.

Any ideas?
