General Questions / product sorting my manufacture...

Last post by Panta123 - March 07, 2026, 22:04:00 PM

In VM 3.8 it was possible to sort the products by the manufacturer's name. In VM 4.6 I cannot find this option.
Is it still available or is there a workaround?

Many thanks!

Stano from Rupostel found the root cause. It was caused by ProductXport plugin.
The solution is to disable this plugin before updating Virtuemart or rename this folder: plugins/system/productxport

this completely locks the administrator in Joomla, you can't access any other page or even get to VM to do this. I've done it again with fatal catcher by rupostel and it points to administrator/components/com_virtuemart/plugins/vmplugin.php:160

undefined constant VMPATH_ADMINISTRATOR

second one refers to libraries/src/Plugin/CMSPlugin.php on in 289 in file ... plugins/system/helixultimate/helixultimate.php:215

Did you try the "install or update tables" ? in the tools?


Have you checked with error reporting?
