Hi all

I trying to disable the images in the product details view. I read http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=90935.0 but i coudnt find a hint to disable the images.

Hello,

Please make an override for the file default.php file for product details. This file is located under
your_joomla_folder\components\com_virtuemart\views\productdetails\tmpl\default.php
Copy that file under: your_joomla_folder\templates\your_joomla_folder\html\com_virtuemart\productdetails\default.php
if the folders com_virtuemart and productdetails does not exist, you create them.

Now, edit the file default.php in out new location. Around line 147 you will find the following code
<?php
echo $this->loadTemplate('images');
?>


So, comment out that line ... like

<?php
//echo $this->loadTemplate('images');
?>


So, the template that is responsible to show the images will not load.
