About VirtueMart - not for support posts / Obligation for stores to retur...

Last post by sylwekb - May 22, 2026, 12:55:39 PM

Hello,
Will there be an update for Virtuemart's one-button returns? Failure to do so will result in significant penalties.


Obligation for stores to return items with one button from 19/06/2026

New EU consumer regulations (Directive 2023/2673) will come into force on June 19, 2026, revolutionizing online shopping. Every online store will be required to provide consumers with a digital "Withdrawal from the contract" function (e.g., a dedicated button) enabling quick and easy returns.

What exactly is changing?

One-Click Returns: Stores will be required to provide a simple withdrawal process directly on their website, without the need to manually complete and print forms.

Automation: After submitting the declaration, the consumer will receive an automatic email confirmation with the exact date and time of its submission.

Penalties for Failure to Implement: For ignoring the new requirements, the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) may impose a fine of up to 10% of annual turnover on the business.

Standard Consumer Rights (forming the basis for the amendment):

Decision Time: The statutory 14-day withdrawal period without giving a reason (counting from the day following receipt of the shipment) remains in effect. Returns deadline: From the moment you submit your withdrawal declaration, you have another 14 days to physically return the goods to the store. Refunds: The store is obligated to refund your money immediately, but no later than 14 days after receiving your declaration.

Btw all Select. must be select. So just lowercase

Maybe that helps you Saverock. But this error is really fixed since 2 years or so.

rare that this can happen, but yes. I added an if empty check to prevent that. Thank you for reporting.

The next vm4.9.3 has a fixed installer. It has also a dropdown, so it should be possible to use it without, or chosen, or choices.

Hello Guys, great work. I am sorry, that I was not available, the short story is, that I bought a new computer, was just ready with installing, which took longer because i had to learn Linux first... and then it broke,.. hardware. My hold monitors killed the power supply. But I had to install again and lost so much time, that I was just working on the next version. Okey, there is a bit a problem with your solution, because you use $app->input. But it is crazy for me, that you have this bug, because i paid extra attention to it.

hmm and both of you use the j5.4...
Hmm on VM5,.. it works, but I get a link like ,1-20.

Maybe that is the right way to go

Code Select Expand

$limitStart = vRequest::getInt ('limitstart', -1,'GET');
if($limitStart < 0){
//We were already in the category/manufacturer, so we take the value stored in the session
$limitStartString  = 'com_virtuemart.' . $view . 'c' . $cateid .'m'.$manid. '.limitstart';
$limitStart = $app->getUserStateFromRequest ($limitStartString, 'limitstart', vRequest::getInt ('limitstart', 0,'GET'), 'int');
}

Heyho, i am sorry that I answer that late. But we talked already about it in Discord. I think that is the right mode

Code Select Expand

WHERE MATCH(l.product_name, l.product_s_desc, l.product_desc, category_name, category_description)
      AGAINST ('+Safety +Helmet' IN BOOLEAN MODE)

This alternative fix works fine and is really better than modifying the router.php.
