General Questions / Re: Excessive bandwidth usage ...
Last post by ThijsE6 - August 04, 2025, 15:28:34 PM
Hi, thanks for your replies.

A couple of weeks ago, I installed Akeeba Admin Tools, and things seemed to improve a bit. The site was still quite slow, but the bandwidth usage dropped significantly. However, the website is still very slow, and sometimes it's even completely unreachable.

This website is a webshop that sells caps. The database contains a lot of unused images from old products, which I plan to delete soon to free up space.

At first, it seemed like Akeeba Admin Tools was helping, but unfortunately, the site is still using about 1.4 GB of bandwidth per day, which is way too much and definitely not normal.

To come back to NorrNext's question — what kind of details would you like to know?
I don't have much insight into what exactly is using up the bandwidth, other than that it's being consumed by Apache.

The website in question is: https://www.beterpet.nl

Thanks in advance!

It is hard to make a conclusion without details. Maybe the site got DDOS.

ThijsE6, do you have additional information concerning the anonymous bandwidth usage? It is interesting to know this case.

General Questions / 404 not working when homepage ...
Last post by sandomatyas - August 01, 2025, 11:50:55 AM
Hello,

I have a Joomla 5.3.2 website running VirtueMart 4.4.8.
The homepage of the site is set to a VirtueMart Category Layout, where the selected category is the Top Level Category.

In general, it works fine, but I noticed that there is no 404 page.
If I type any random path after the domain (e.g. mydomain.com/adfjkhakljgljakh2424234), I always get the homepage content, regardless of the setting of "Enable VirtueMart 404 error handling".

If I change the homepage to any non-VirtueMart menu item (e.g. a Joomla article), 404 pages work correctly, even when VM productdetails is the homepage.
This issue only occurs when the homepage is a VirtueMart Category Layout, regardless of whether it is the Top Level Category or a specific category.

Is this a routing issue in VirtueMart?
Is there a known workaround to make 404 pages work with VM Category Layout as the homepage?

Thank you!

General Questions / Virtuemart 4 Cart prices (prod...
Last post by finbarr69 - July 31, 2025, 08:52:12 AM
Hi, VirtueMart 4.4.10 11120 on Joomla 5.1.4

I have not made any template overrides.  In the shopping cart, the product price, the Subtotal Shipment Payment and the Total do not display (please see attached image).

When the payment screen is reached, the charged price is correct, so it is just a display problem on the cart page.

If it matters, there is no tax/vat on this UK site.

As far as I can see in the Configuration, all the relevant price display options are enabled.

Please can anyone advise how to get the prices to show?

The default cart and also the VP One Page shopping cart both have the same problem.

I am due to open the shop today.  :'(

Plugins: Payment, Shipment and others / Re: PayPal Checkout Plugin
Last post by rosydam - July 31, 2025, 05:01:24 AM
Quote from: sohopros on May 21, 2025, 19:39:49 PMWe are using Joomla 4.4.8, Virtuemart 4.2.12 11014, and trying to migrate to the PayPal Checkout plugin (version 4.2.12)/Payment Method. We were successful in enabling the plugin and adding the Payment Method, but to configure the payment method, we are being prompted to connect the plugin to the PayPal account: "Merchant onboarding here. Use this button to let PayPal configure the plugin Geometry Dash or to create an account". This was attempted, and the resulting dialogue box said it was successful, but the data (Merchant e-mail, Merchant id, Client id, and Secret) does not populate into the fields (and cannot be populated manually because the fields are "grayed-out" and inaccessible). Has anyone run into this issue and have any ideas what may be causing this?


Can you access or unlock the grayed-out fields by switching the plugin to "Advanced" or "Manual" mode, if such an option exists?

Quote from: AnSit on July 29, 2025, 22:25:14 PMBefore we buy the template from you again, I need to know whether you have fixed the critical errors in it that I wrote to you about or not. I can list them here.
1. On the Virtuemart registration page, if the user has not filled in the required fields, then registration still occurs successfully, without errors and warning the user that he has not filled in the required fields.
2. The template does not work correctly with the standard ReCaptcha v.3 plugin. In particular, on the registration page.

I would also like to clarify that the latest version of the template does not have any such issues. You are facing these problems because you are likely using an extremely outdated version of the template, which is incompatible with the latest Joomla and VirtueMart.

You registered on our site but have not purchased a template from us. To access our support forum, you must have an active subscription. Only the purchaser of the template is entitled to access the support forum. We clarified this information in our communication on July 29, 2022, when you first registered on our site and reached out to us. We had an extensive discussion and exchanged several emails, which I believe you recall.

Please note that this platform is not our support forum, and we cannot provide product support here.

Well, finally you answered at least here! Thank you for that too! Jumbo!, where and when did you answer? I haven't received a single letter from you anywhere. Although I sent you three letters through your feedback form on the website. There's nothing in the spam folder.

We were not involved in any resale or transfer of licenses. As a website developer, I was given a template officially purchased from you and I installed it and am working with it.
I tried to ask a question on your forum. I registered, but as soon as I I try to go to the forum and write, your site immediately redirects me to the payment rates page and does not allow me to do anything else. Apparently, there is even a topic on the forum with the problems I encountered in the template, but you do not even let me read these topics.

Before we buy the template from you again, I need to know whether you have fixed the critical errors in it that I wrote to you about or not. I can list them here.
