Security (https) / Performance / SEO, SEF, URLs / Re: some site links component/...
Last post by mehmesen - April 13, 2025, 16:08:20 PMHello iWim.
First of all, thank you for your reply and sorry for writing late.
I can't update to virtuemart 4.4.6 because I can't make paypal payments from my country. (I sent a support email for the credit card payment option)
My problem is this:
The site exports all products (plugins like rocsvi, sitemap) in the backend as follows.
For example: https://www.yedekci.com/component/virtuemart/elektrikli-supurge-motoru-detail?Itemid=101
Also, the virtuemart products module located under the article on the front page gives the wrong link ( https://www.yedekci.com/component/virtuemart/elektrikli-supurge-motoru-detail?Itemid=101 )
Please see (at the bottom of the page) https://www.yedekci.com/makale/bir-anne-tum-dunyayi-degistirebilir
The interesting part is that the same module is in another location (virtuemart gives the correct link under the product page https://www.yedekci.com/urunlerimiz/elektrikli-supurge-motoru-detail )
A Virtuemart category menu has been added to the site; Ürünlerimiz and all my products appear with a good link under the https://www.yedekci.com/urunlerimiz/ link.
I would be glad if you could help me.
Best regards.

General Questions / Re: After migration to joomla ...
Last post by iWim - April 13, 2025, 10:51:59 AMThat may not be a VirtueMart issue.
What is your php version?
The warning comes from an override file in your template.
Compare your override file and the original file and apply the changes.
Override: ~/templates/shaper_helixultimate/html/com_virtuemart/sublayouts/snippets.php
Original: ~/components/com_virtuemart/sublayouts/snippets.php
Also I recommend updating to VirtueMart 4.4.6.

Administration & Configuration / Re: product admin panel looks ...
Last post by iWim - April 13, 2025, 10:38:55 AMYes, I am.
If you prefer to test updates before applying them to your production site I recommend installing your site locally on your computer.
Use WAMP/MAMP as a local webserver.
And use Akeeba Backup + Akeeba Kickstart to install your site locally.
You can test updates/changes before applying them to your production site.
This way you'll know what to expect.
And when something does go wrong, nothing is lost. Just re-install the backup.
Meanwhile your production site is running normally.

Last post by iWim - April 12, 2025, 11:00:25 AMIt seems you are using the old admin.
Go to Components > VirtueMart > Configuration > tab:Shop
Scroll down to block:Advanced Settings
Set New Admin Template to Yes
Also update to VirtueMart 4.4.6
4.4.4 has an annoying issue with (not) displaying images.

Virtuemart Development and bug reports / Order confirmation email parti...
Last post by sandomatyas - April 11, 2025, 18:48:29 PMHi,
Joomla 3.10.12 + VirtueMart 4.4.6 + latest language files.
I noticed something strange:
Everything on the site is properly translated to the selected language. However, when placing an order, the order confirmation email contains some parts still in English.
For example:
In the product table header → everything is in English except for the product name (COM_VIRTUEMART_PRODUCT_NAME_TITLE), which is translated correctly.
"Order date" is in English.
Customer field labels like "First Name", "Last Name", etc. are in English too.
Everything else in the email is displayed in the correct language.
I checked for example the COM_VIRTUEMART_ORDER_PRINT_SKU constant — it exists in the language file.
When I view the order from the backend or as a customer (browser), everything is translated correctly.
There are no template overrides in components/com_virtuemart/invoice.
Any idea why the email uses English for these parts?
Thanks in advance!

Virtuemart Development and bug reports / Toggle hidden field issue in V...
Last post by sandomatyas - April 11, 2025, 17:15:00 PMHello,
I'm using VirtueMart 4.4.6 on Joomla 5.2.6 and I've found a strange behavior:
In the VirtueMart admin → Custom Fields list, I can toggle the "Admin only" and "Hidden" columns directly by clicking the eye icons (toggle functionality).
When I want to enable the Hidden field (clicking the grey eye icon), it works fine — the icon turns green.
But when I want to remove the Hidden attribute (clicking the green eye icon), it doesn't change back to grey. Instead, I get an error message:
vmError: There was an error toggling is_hidden
vmError: VirtueMartModelCustom::toggle 99
Thanks!

Virtuemart Development and bug reports / In Frontend Managing: Missing ...
Last post by minnemedia - April 11, 2025, 11:21:08 AMVirtueMart 4.4.6 / Joomla 4.4.13 / PHP 8.3.14
When logged in with managing rights in the frontend, many internal links are missing the tmpl=component parameter. This causes VirtueMart managing views to be loaded within the default Joomla site template instead of a clean component view.
This leads to UI conflicts, unnecessary template elements (header, footer, sidebars), and JavaScript/CSS clashes.
Example:
http://vm.test/index.php/manage?view=product&task=edit&virtuemart_product_id=1
loads with the full Joomla template instead of the intended managing layout.
Please advise how to resolve these issues or let us know if a patch or fix is planned.
Best regards,
Martin
