how to get shipping address from joomla user details?

[Stannite]

Hi all,

I am using joomla 2.5.10 and virtuemart 2.0.20b.

When a user registers, he also needs to fill in his address. i got this working by using the standard joomla user-profile plugin. But virtuemart doesn't use this address as shipping or billing address. how can i achieve this?

thanks in advance

Either use VirtueMart's registration as intended or maybe you could use this plugin.

How do i use the virtuemart registration? somehow i am not able to find this. I looked in the plugins and modules.

When i disable the joomla plugins, a customer register with name, username, email and password. With the joomla plugins enabled, the user registers with address details as well.

When a customer registers, the user is created in joomla and in virtuemart, except the address isn't placed in virtuemart.

Sorry - it was late and I forgot to add the plugin link.  https://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=100959.msg334299#msg334299   VM won't get data from the J profile plugin without hacking the core (which we do not support) as the data tables are different.

Ok, Thanks. I will look into this.

There is no option for virtuemart registration on the elements menu types. How do you accomplish that?
