Hello,

If you use manufacturer page (by creating a menu assign to manufacturers), or by using the module Module: VirtueMart Manufacturers [mod_virtuemart_manufacturer], or by clicking in the product page or wherever there is a manufacturer link, you can click show all manufacturer products and receive them all in "category" style without categories.

What you can easily is to create some menu items that points to each specific manufacturer OR directly to manufacturers products view. From that page you can select easily the manufacturers from your dp list like in categories, but without categories.

PS: You understand when you using category view it is obvious that categories will be shown and applied.

You can use the free version of custom filters for that.
The manufacturers filter contains the "Any Manufacturer" which returns all products without the categories list.

balai, thank you!

it looks really great and I will get the PRO Version to support your work.

nearly perfect, but 2 things:

The URL from a manufacturer is acually:
www.yourshopurl.com/component/customfilters/no-category/manufacturerexample?Itemid=104

coud it bee like:
www.yourshopurl.com/manufacturerexample or better:
www.yourshopurl.com/manufacturerexample.html

second:
above the list of products of one manufacturer, there is no title and no description of manufacturer.
could it be possible these things there place?

Unfortunatelly this is the way that joomla builds the sef URLs. It uses the component's name in the URL.

Because it is a filtering extension and other criteria can be used too (categories, prices , custom fields), displaying the selected criteria at the top can become incomprehensive for the users. We will think of that in case the user selects only 1 criteria.
