Max products per view in frontend

[Sophia23]

I have set Max products per view in frontend to 24 but only 9 products are showing per page (although 24 are showing in the frontend's drop down menu as default value).
This used to work just fine for me till version 2.06 I belive.
Changing Default Number of Products per Row (from 0 to any other value) in the Product Category Form completely messes up the layout.

How can I fix this?

VM 2.08e
joomla 2.5.6
PHP 5.3.5-1

Thanks.

I have the same problem... I have been taking a look some of the actions in the code and the template in the component and it gets 9 items sent from the view.... and that is something I seams to be reciving some value that tells it to limit the number og items from a config that is not displayed in the admin panel.

... I am going to take a look at this and see if i can spot it...

Hi, I'm having the same problem now where total products display per page is not following the setting "Max products per view in frontend" i set.

My case is:
4 items per row(working)
20 for Max products per view in frontend (not working, show only 8 items with pagination)

Do you find any solution?

Thanks!

I did make some hard-fix on this issue but John2400 has another solution that I am going to try also. See here http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=103473.0;topicseen

Hi John,

Sorry for late reply. Do you mean enable SEO in both joomla global configuration and Virtuemart? If yes, I did turn them on and still not able to make it works.

Joomla:
Search Engine Friendly URLs : YES

Virtuemart:
SEO Disabled [Unchecked]

Joomla 2.5 + Virtuemart 2.0.10

Would like to hear from you if you have any suggestion. Thanks!

Hi all,

I would like to share the solution for max products per view if you not yet get the answer.

Problems: Products per page is not changed although configuration in virtuemart for Max products per view in frontend
Solutions: You need also change the value for Category Form Initial Display Records in your product category (Products > Products Categories).

Thanks!
