I am building a website in Joomla! 3.3.0  and Virtuemart 2.9.3.

I found a few things that might help you improving VM3.

Can't change category order. After adding they are all 0. I can fill in the number in the ordering field but there is no safe button.
When I click on ordering and than on the arrows to change the order it doesn't work.
Nothing happens when I click on them, the order remains 0.

I can't add images to products.
When I go to VM - Products - Tab Product Images, it says on the botton of the page:
Upload File, I select Upload at Image Action, browse and select for the image, but can't upload it as the Upload File button is  missing.
It's just written Upload File, but it's no button.
I don't know if it has anything to do with this but below it says:
The server supports mime type recognition
Supported filetypes for thumbnail creation GIF, JPG, PNG, WBMP
/customers/e/c/d/mydomain.nl/httpd.www/images/stories/virtuemart/product/ :: Writeable
/customers/e/c/d/mydomain.nl/httpd.www/images/stories/virtuemart/product/resized/ :: Writeable

When I go to components - Virtuemart-aio, I see this:
An error has occurred.
404 Component not found

When I go to admin - extensions - modules manager - new, it shows:
    mod_virtuemart_cart MOD_VIRTUEMART_CART_DESC
    mod_virtuemart_category MOD_VIRTUEMART_CATEGORY_DESC
    mod_virtuemart_currencies MOD_VIRTUEMART_CURRENCIES_DESC
    mod_virtuemart_manufacturer MOD_VIRTUEMART_MANUFACTURER_DESC
    mod_virtuemart_product MOD_VIRTUEMART_PRODUCT_DESC
    mod_virtuemart_search MOD_VIRTUEMART_SEARCH_DESC

This doesn't look like it should and according to an old post in your forum "VirtueMart Featured Products" is missing here.

Hope it helps.

Seems you do not know virtuemart itself? This is the standard behaviour since vm1.9.8. It is stilll good that you test, we could enhance this with an ajax.

Please read here http://docs.virtuemart.net/

Should I fix your bug, please support the VirtueMart project and become a member

Thank you for your reply. I will study the documentation as indeed I am quite new to Virtuemart.

Also thank you for sending me VM2.9.4 over Skype.
However, I installed it succesfully, but it didn''t change or fix any of the problems I experience.

Also, I would like to add 2 other issues that I just bumped into:
Joomla! 3.3.0 
Virtuemart 2.9.4
beez template

I activated product reviews, but when I fill in the text field and press send, I am forwarded to a white empty screen.
When I refresh, the review is not safed.
What does work, is to leave the textfield completely empty and press send.
In the last case it is possible to rate a product.

Another thing is that I created custom fields for my products.
However when I fill in those fields on the tab custom fields, they are not safed but I get this message again:
No custom Fields. Please use select list to add some new fields

Thanks again for sening me VM 2.9.4 over Skype again. I installed it succesfully and it solved 3 "isssues":

1. I am able to save the custom fields of the products.

2. I don't know if you fixed this or if I just found out how it works, but I am able to safe productimages by selecting them and pressing the safe button at the top of the page.

3. I am able to change category order.

Thanks!

Also I tested the other things, but I do not see any changes/improvements:
- can't send product reviews
- components - Virtuemart-aio, I see this: An error has occurred. 404 Component not found
- extensions - modules manager - new, it shows: mod_virtuemart_cart MOD_VIRTUEMART_CART_DESC (this is not important but anyway)

Thanks again.
