VM 4.2.0

[Teejay]

We run a Joomla 4.4.1 with VM4.2.0 plugins, is the VM 4.2.4 compatible with Joomla 5.0.1, reason being the current version we run VM4.2.0 is prompting us to upgrade, which is not free anymore, equally getting Joomla upgrade notification, will appreciate assistance here

Not compatible. Add-ons will also not be compatible with the J5

Thanks, what about VM 4.2.4, with membership fee, in the config, there is this identification number, what happens after using registration, am assuming its not the same as certification, don't like the constant prompt to upgrade, appreciate your help

You can turn off the update prompt in Joomla settings in
/administrator/index.php?option=com_installer&view=updatesites

A membership ID number generally gives you nothing, and its absence does not obligate you to anything.
Simply by using this number you can download the latest version of Virtuemart directly from this server.

If you are annoyed by the information that your membership number is missing in the Virtuemart menu, the easiest way is to hide it here using CSS.
Just add this line to the file /administrator/templates/vmadmin/html/com_virtuemart/assets/css/default-white-blue.css

#vmuikit-menu-offcanvas-toggle .uk-offcanvas-bar > div:last-child, #vmuikit-menu-offcanvas-toggle .vm-installed-version, #vmuikit-menu-offcanvas-toggle .vmuikit-menu-bottom {display: none}

Regardless, I recommend purchasing a membership. Thanks to this, the author of Virtuemart has more money for the development of this component and for the vacation leave he is entitled to, which he is also entitled to

Thanks Hazael, been able to restore back to previous Joomla 4.4.1, running VM 4.2.0, also successfully upgraded Joomla to J4.4.2 as prompted, however our whole alternate language function is totally out, the products menus, category & article not live, when i activate Joomla SEO friendly URLs button(which was ever set to active), now its just causing havoc, how can i solve this

Have you installed the language versions for Virtuemart?

https://virtuemart.net/community/translations/virtuemart
https://virtuemart.net/community/translations/virtuemartplugins

Your products are added in NL by default:
https://altenagala.nl/jeugd-prins-en-prinsescarnavalskostuums-html
https://altenagala.nl/en/jeugd-prins-en-prinsescarnavalskostuums-html

In order for the same product to be displayed in a different language version, e.g. EN, you must open it in the administrator panel and save it in the selected language version.


You do the same with categories and manufacturer's name

For these language options to work, you must first select all the languages ​​you are interested in in the Virtuemart settings - select NL as the default - necessarily with the "global configuration" option
