Hello everyone!
I'm very new to VM, have been reading documentation and playing on my own test site as well for a while. I'm just wondering how I can setup a image gallery for a certain product just like the demo site: http://demo.virtuemart.net/index.php?page=shop.product_details&category_id=11&flypage=flypage_default.tpl&product_id=20&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=6&vmcchk=1&Itemid=6


Any hints or instructions would be greatly appreciated!

You need to develop/use from Gallery script to achieve this. There are many GNU scripts are available over net to show the images in a thumbnails gallery. You need to modify the following file for the same: components\com_virtuemart\views\productdetails\tmpl\default_images.php or use html override in your Joomla Template.

Hello, I'm trying to do this as well. Are you saying that the only way to do this is to hack the files for VM? There must be a way to "plug in" something like this???

Hi guys,

Firstly, VM allows you to add more than one image to a product by default. Read the manual if you need to know how to do it.

Secondly, this topic has been discussed at lengths on numerous posts. Here are some of the outcomes and solutions.
