Joomla ACL was added to VM in VM2.0.24 and extended to include orders in VM2.0.24a  - so an update is maybe a good idea, especially as 2.0.20a is known to be insecure.

Thanks Jenkinhill, I appreciate your quick response.

I have tried updating to all versions of joomla and virtuemart, however, I then have other errors that seem to be worse and one of hte biggest problems is in those updates, my website then loses its template theme on certain product pages....any thoughts/input on this problem?  I also was still unable to receive system emails in the updates.

I just figured out that on one of my test sites the "notify shopper" checkbox is not automatically checked for order status, so they do not receive a confirmation email, but if I update a status and check the box, I do receive the email and so do they....is there any way to make this automatically checked always? Even as an order comes in and if I am not making changes to it?  I hope that makes sense....

I appreciate your assistance and quick responses!

Thanks so much,
Erica
