Hi,

Q1. I installed VM and forgot to install the dummy shop, so I uninstall through extension manager but on the components drop down the virtual mart stuff were still there e.g > virtualmart and virtual mart aio , so I re-installed the JM, installaion was successfully, is this a problem when doing this?

Q2. How Do I install a dummy store so I can see my categories etc, I can see an extension called about fruit shop, which I missed to do during installation.

Q3. When can I find a FREE Jmoola responsive VM templates for J2.5+? is there any site where everyone goes?

Q4. Now that I have installed VM, is there an easy guide to operate, administrate & upload products to VM?

Q5. I want to create a back-up incase my current site breaks, do you know of any popular extension, where I can archive and  back-up my files and DB?

Thank
Shebs

Hi Skywalker
1) In theory I can't think of a reason as long as you setup it correctly.
2) Go to - Virtuemart > tools & migration > scroll to the bottom of the DB tools and click > Reset all tables and install sample data.
3) I wouldn't bother - any free ones will be coded awfully. Find free online tutorials of response design - there are many - and earn yourself.
4) The Virtuemart manual - http://docs.virtuemart.net/ - bare in mind from my experience there is a lot missing
5) Check the JED (http://extensions.joomla.org/) or Virtuemart Extension (http://extensions.virtuemart.net/) sites

Not a problem.
