Then you are just not looking good enough ;)

https://dev.virtuemart.net/projects/virtuemart/files

Just download the latest version from there, there it should be fixed. However, it will not fix it for images that were uploaded during the period, the problem was introduced. For that you will need the query that fotonio posted.

plgVmConfirmedOrder is the event. the data is in $order. You  can also use plgVmOnUpdateOrderPayment but then you need to check for the order status.

Plugins: Payment, Shipment and others / Re: PayPal Checkout Plugin
Last post by Milbo - September 08, 2025, 10:15:36 AM
The problem here is from our side paypal. The merchant onboarding process should setup the stuff from paypal. But this works only, if your account is completly setup already, which is usally not the case. if the account is not ready, paypal sends you to your account that you should login, but they dont say anything what todo.

and they have us as contact. and I wrote them already, that the merchant onboarding worked for my sandbox ( I had to prove them, that it works,...),  but that it does not work live, in the wild.

And as I said, instead of that they send some data back, they do not send any data and show a "login to your account".

It's pretty obvious that the more plugins you use, the worse your site's performance gets. For years there's been an ongoing debate between WordPress and Joomla — which CMS is better? The answer is quite simple: it depends. That said, WordPress is fast, but once you start stacking too many plugins, it begins to choke so badly that Joomla eats it for breakfast.

Still, optimization is key — the fewer, the better. That's why I don't get why you'd install separate plugins like PayPal and Stripe, when Stripe already has everything built in.

Support for Joomla 4 ends this year – after October 2025 no further security updates will be released. It's strongly recommended to consider upgrading to Joomla 5 to ensure the stability and security of your website

Language/Translations / Batch translation of products ...
Last post by Aleksej - September 06, 2025, 08:37:52 AM
Hello. The site has about 11,500 products, about 210 categories and about 2,700 manufacturers. Currently, the site has one language. But I plan to set up Joomla multilingualism and add two more languages.
I am looking for a ready-made extension or someone who can write an extension for automatic batch translation of products, categories and manufacturers using Deepl or something similar.
Maybe someone knows about such an extension? Unfortunately, FaLang is not compatible with VirtueMart.
Maybe someone can write such an extension?

Joomla 3.9, VirtueMart 3.4, PHP 7.3.

Last post by rosydam - September 06, 2025, 05:47:34 AM
Hi everyone,
I'm currently running VirtueMart 4 on Joomla 4, and I've noticed that the checkout page becomes noticeably slower when I enable multiple payment plugins (PayPal, Stripe, local bank gateways, etc.). When I disable some of them, the page loads faster, but obviously, I still need to provide multiple options for my customers.
Has anyone found a good way to optimize checkout speed while keeping several payment methods active?
Is it better to load payment methods via AJAX?
Are there caching strategies that work well with VirtueMart checkout?
Or maybe specific configuration tips inside VirtueMart to reduce the load time?
I think many shop owners who use VirtueMart with multiple gateways may face the same issue, so I'd love to hear about your solutions or best practices.
Thanks in advance!
