Found bug in the Search of Virtuemart 2.9.9b and its solution!

[LorenzoPi]

Hi guys! I'm working with Virtuemart 2.9.9b for Joomla 3 and when i was searching various products on my site and changing some of the default filters ( for example the Orders of products or the Number of products in display ) the sistem didn't applied the filters and redirect me in Home page! So i search in the various files of Virtuemart and i saw this:

Code Select Expand

$getArray = vRequest::getGET();

To resolve this issue you must change this files:

- joomla\administrator\components\com_virtuemart\models\product.php

and replace line 2189 with

Code Select Expand

$getArray = vRequest::getRequest();


- joomla\administrator\components\com_virtuemart\helpers\vmmodel.php

and replace line 1162 with

Code Select Expand

$getArray = vRequest::getRequest();

Now the Search of Virtuemart 2.9.9b is working fine for me.

It is more weird. the problem is that in joomla 3, the GET variables are not available, if you have SEF activated. It must be taken from the router then. To use Request is not good, cause it holds also the cookies. The fix is already in svn.

So the solution is something like

Code Select Expand


if(JVM_VERSION<3){
$getArray = vRequest::getGet();
} else {
$router = JFactory::getApplication()->getRouter();
$getArray = filter_var_array($router->getVars(), FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
}
