3rd party extension / Re: Multipurpose Responsive Vi...

We recently bought this template from you for the third time through the site. I updated to version 3.19. I checked if the specified problems were fixed. The problems are not fixed.
1. Registration is done without problems without filling in passwords. There is no such error with the standard VM Basic template and all unfilled mandatory fields are highlighted there.
2. On the registration page, mandatory fields are Name, Login, Password, Password 2 without asterisks. There should be asterisks next to their names as well as next to the Email inscription.
Help fix these problems.

Plugins: Payment, Shipment and others / Accounting integration for Qui...

Last post by swheeler - August 13, 2025, 14:01:49 PM

Greetings,

I've been offering VirtueMart integration for the listed accounting packages for years and it's also been years since I've posted on these boards.  I get the rare inquiry for VirtueMart integration, but they are truly fewer and fewer each year. I don't know if it's because VirtueMart users of these accounting packages just aren't aware of integration options, or if folks are just gravitating to newer platforms in the market.  I like VirtueMart and would like to continue supporting it, so I thought I'd post a reminder here about the availability of the CartSpan eCommerce Integration for VirtueMart.

CartSpan is a fully-automated Ecommerce integration for VirtueMart that will perform the following work:

Import Orders - Import as either Order or Invoice.  Orders can be followed by pre-payments that can be applied to Invoices later.

Auto-Creation of Items - Items that don't exist in the accounting system can be optionally created on-the-fly using default item-type and GL accounts.

Auto-Creation of Customers - Customer masters that don't exist can be optionally created on-the-fly with standardized Reference nomenclature to ensure uniqueness.

Update Stock/Price in VirtueMart - Update stock and price (optional) in VirtueMart in near-real-time using current stock availability from accounting.

If you are a Moderator reading this post, I would appreciate you reaching out to discuss posting availability of CartSpan on your partners page, as I was having some difficulty sending email through your 'Contacts' page.

Sincerely,

Scott Wheeler, Owner

General Questions / Re: Virtuemart 4 Cart prices (...

Last post by finbarr69 - August 12, 2025, 18:21:19 PM

Found it! 

The problem is the user I was testing with is in a special shopper group, not the default.

Having removed myself from that group, the prices show correctly.

Thank you for everyone that spent a lot of time testing. 

The special shopper group had all the prices ticked, and all the labels ticked, and all the rounding digits set to -1

I'm not sure what rounding digits does if it is -1 - maybe that was the problem.  I've attached a screenshot of the special shopper group settings in case it is of interest.

However, the shop owner is not going to use shopper groups for now, so we can close off this as solved.

Thanks again to everyone who took the time to look into it for me.  I hope to be able to return the favour one day.

Do you have a link of the webiste. Probably CSS of the template or a possible override in the tempalte itself

It is not a CSS or Template override problem.

I tried on a clean local testshop (just Joomla/VM) and it displays the payment/shipment prices as expected.
As does a local and live version of a webshop...

Can you also post screenshots of the configuration of the payment/shipping method itself?

Can you say something about your enviroment?

Maybe post the results of the Joomla Forum Post Assistent
https://forumpostassistant.github.io/docs/
(It's made for the Joomla Forum, but it works here too.)

And yeah, a link to your webshop may help too.

Your backend is pretty fast, so it's something on the frontend that makes it go slow. Probably external API calls or something. What you can do is disable plugins / modules and see which one is the culprit. If you want some help I can help you (i'm also dutch and i work with virtuemart, info {AT} yuzi.nl)

ThijsE6,
How do you get statistics of bandwidth usage? Are there any additional details? Which pages or scripts.
What is average daily website traffic by visitors?

The problem is complex and may appear due to different circumstances and maybe it is even not the problem with VirtueMart:

1. DDOS attack on domain (personally on your site) or on server. Do you have own server or shared hosting? It is important. Maybe other site on the same server gets attacked.
I attempted to open your site but it works very slowly (inappropriate for end users). If it happens on a regular basis, then the best way at the moment could be changing server.

2. The site needs an optimization.
The home page has 4,62 mb size. It is too big, especially for mobile devices!
Just calculate if you have 100 visitors per day and each of them loads just the 1st page, it takes 462 mb. of bandwidth.

3. Maybe the problem is in scripts of 3rd party extensions. A deep investigation is needed.
At your place I'd make copy of the site somewhere and play with it. Even on localhost. Maybe there is an old extension or bad written extension or just an unexpected situation. Also I'd recommend to have a look at SEARCH module. There is an Ajax call that works after typing 2nd letter in search field.
Just temporary disable it and compare.

By other words, it maybe not the issue related to VirtueMart. This case shows complex problems on the site resolving of them could improve the situation a lot.

Thank you iWim. If you did not change any files, then I would take a look on your price configuration in the vm config. Maybe you just do not display the right prices?

Thanks Milbo.  I think I've turned on all that I think is needed.  I have attached screenshots of the pricing settings for the cart and the currency setting.  Perhaps you can see something I've missed, having identified that currencyDisplay->createPriceDiv is returning nothing, but $this->cart->cartPrices['billTotal'] contains the correct value.

Thanks for looking at this for me :-)

The forum questions are mostly answered by volunteers.
Sometimes Milbo answers.

When you log in to extensions.virtuemart.net you could leave a ticket. Maybe you'll get an answer quicker.
There is also a discord, but you need a certain amount of forum posts...

To your question:
I remember I had something similar with a different cart extension.
In my case I had to change a setting so JS was loaded inline instead of a file.
Maybe you have a similar option in VP One Page...

Do you use something like Admin Tools/RS Firewall?
Are they blocking something?

So people who understand this much better than I do, can help:
When visiting your cart open the Console panel in your browsers devtools.

Copy the errors/warnings here...

Thanks.  I've already said the prices do not show in the standard cart, so the problem is not with the vp_one_page cart (which also does not show the prices).

The cart page shows, but the prices are blank.  See the screenshot in my original post.  This is not being blocked by anything.  To my mind it is one of two things:

1) I have not ticked the correct box to show the price
or
2) The price cannot be calculated because tax or currency are causing a problem.  Tax is turned off, currency is GBP only (British Pound).

I'm looking at /components/com_virtuemart/views/cart/tmpl/bs5-default_cartpricelist.php on line 168 which should display the total.

Code Select Expand

<div class="col fw-bold text-end"><?php echo $this->currencyDisplay->createPriceDiv ('billTotal', '', $this->cart->cartPrices['billTotal'], FALSE); ?></div>

This displays blank.  However, if I add this:

Code Select Expand

echo $this->cart->cartPrices['billTotal'];
It displays 16, which is my cart price total at the moment.

So the price is there in the data, and the problem is with the currencyDisplay->createPriceDiv function.

I'm still researching, but it seems to be a currency display problem.

For the moment, I can fix it by just bypassing the currency display in the cart, but I'd like to fix it properly.
