Hi everybody,

I have some troubles to understand clearly the Shopfront Setting in Virtuemart 2.0 configuration page.

What is product layout for?
I see differents choices (default,notify, default1, pdf... ). But there is no change if I choose one or the other.

Thanks for your help.

Kind regards,

Frogy

This are the different Layouts for products details page.

Thanks for your answer.
How does it works? Why there is no change in the display when I change one to the other?
Is there a file I can override?

Kind regards

I dont't now, why you have no changes if you change the layout. I tested it with different installations and it works for me.

You can override the layout. Copy the file

components/com_virtuemart/views/productdetails/tmpl/default.php

to

your_template/html/com_virtuemart/productdetails/default.php

and change what you want for custom layout output.

Thank youvery much for your help.
Now it works.
I have overrided the file default from components/com_virtuemart/views/productdetails/tmpl/default.php to mytemplate/html/productdetails folder
I rename it and now I can see it on the list of the Virtemart configuration with the others.

Great.
