VirtueMart 2 Theme (works with your current joomla template)

[rustynuts]

Hi I have just purchased your template and the site looks great now THANKS

I do have a few bugs/modifications that i need to iron out though.

1: I would like to display the product short description in the "detailed" template but don't know what parts of the code to remove.

2: On most virtuemart pages (for some reason a couple of pages display fine) when i browse on a smart phone it does not load the "responsive" template. I have checked to see what templates they use and both working and non working pages are directed to the same template. If i change to an old template that does not include your files it all displays fine.

3: If a customer logs in during checkout the "update quantity in cart" box disappears leaving just the number which can not be modified. This can only be fixed by pressing on the update quantity refresh button, but not the browser refresh button.

Hello Danny,

please replace the line:

$html.= '<input type="hidden" class="quantity-input" name="quantity[]" value="1"/>';

with the following lines:

(!empty($product->min_order_level)) ? $minOrderLevel = $product->min_order_level : $minOrderLevel = 1;
$html.=             '<input type="text" class="quantity-input" name="quantity[]" value="'.$minOrderLevel.'"/>';



Sincerely,

Eugen Stranz

Hi Eugen,

To take it a bit further, what would I have to do to make the quantity field increment the same as the min_order_level ?
Just like it does on the products-detail page. So if the min_order_level is 25, one click would change it to 50 and not 26 as it does now
I've been trying for day's now, copying the step and script code from the details page, but I can't get it to work.

Please advice

Regards, Martin

Hello Martin,

to realize your project, it requires a modification in the code. For this we would need to try it myself once before we could ever describe it in individual steps.

Surely you understand that we would quickly reach our financial limit if we would offer such an effort as a free service.

We will note your request and try to implement this in a future update.

We will gladly provide you with a non-binding offer to your request in a timely manner to implement for you. If you are interested please send us a message on our page http://www.developing-and-design.com

We look forward to hearing from you.



Sincerely,

Eugen Stranz

2. Our template is not responsive yet. We are working on that.

3. Yes - browser refresh wouldn't work in any case. This is the only way we can do it right now. I'm sorry.

Hi Eugen,

i bought your brilliant theme and i'm actually very satisfied.
Since my client wants some "minor" changes in the template structure i'm sometimes stuck.
Is there a possibility to get the "top ten" (it's the recently viewed products, right?) onto the product details page under the related products?

Best regards,
Jan

Our VirtueMart Theme gets responsive in a couple of days. Isn`t that cool ;-)

Sorry I was under the impression it was already responsive.

I can see from the last few replys that small code changes or suggestions will not be supplied by the developers unless payed for.

Does anyone else know what code i would need to insert or enable to get the product short description in the "detailed" template view?

"works with your current joomla template" clearly it does not

[Eugen S.]

"works with your current joomla template" clearly it does not

Off course it does. The fact that the short description is not visible does not mean that the theme isn't working.

You should really start to realize what a big gift you get with the FREE VirtueMart. Seems this gift is not enough and you asking for free modifications. Would you explain 100+ people how to modify code every day for their individual requirements? I don't think so... Only Bill Gates could afford this currently...

In your case please open the following file:
/templates/ your template /html/com_virtuemart/themes/grids/products/detailed.php

Change Line 79 - 86 where you see

Code Select Expand

// Output: Product Short Description
/*if (!empty($product->product_s_desc)) {
//  && $show['show_product_desc'] == 'yes'
$html.=     '<div class="product-short-desc">';
$html.=         shopFunctionsF::limitStringByWord($product->product_s_desc, 60 , '...');
$html.=     '</div>';

}*/

replace it with:

Code Select Expand

// Output: Product Short Description
if (!empty($product->product_s_desc)) {
//  && $show['show_product_desc'] == 'yes'
$html.=     '<div class="product-short-desc">';
$html.=         shopFunctionsF::limitStringByWord($product->product_s_desc, 60 , '...');
$html.=     '</div>';

}

Thanks Eugen I do appreciate your assistance.

My comment about it not working with my current joomla template is more in regards to my understanding that your template was reactive, like my current joomla template.
With nearly exactly half of my customers browsing on tablets and phones and the importance of this function to SEO it was a feature i was really looking foward to implementing.

So i do appologise for my reaction. It has more to do with my frustration than your product.

I do realise what a gift it is to have free products and community support. I also don't have any problems buying custom solutions like your own and have done so.

I was of the assumption that the code needed was very much like the "add to cart" modification discussed earlier in this thread so i didnt think it was out of bounds to ask for a suggestion.
Especially when this is a community that thrives on people helping others with discussion, this is the best place to have problems and solutions listed.
I would also think it would not be uncommon for others who use your template to want this information either.

However i understand your comment on having to explain to 100+ people a day and the cost to you guys. I will be using your paid service just as soon as i can make some minor adjustments and am satisfied that it is ready for the final clean up.

Again thanks for your assistance

Oh any idea on when the template will become reactive?

[Eugen S.]

no problem.

I think you mean "responsive" - we will release a version in 2 weeks ;-)

[Eugen S.]

1.show my product in each subcategory (random 3-5 product in subcategory)
to show on front page, for example

The easiest way to do that is to use our module "All About Products". This Module can be placed / assigned on / to your frontpage. It allows you to show products of specific categories.

2. show products last viewed by your visitors

The above mentioned module "All About Products" can also do this!

3. Can I customs css style ?

Absolutely. It's totally allowed to customise everything to your needs. No restrictions.

4. your extension compatible with all template?

Yes!
