Hi Max

When installing the core I saw an error message which didnt happen in 2.5.2.

I installed the core and then the AIO as usual.



        JFolder: :delete: La ruta no es una carpeta. Ruta: /home/ourserver/public_html/administrator/components/com_virtuemart_allinone/languageBE
        JFolder: :delete: La ruta no es una carpeta. Ruta: /home/ourserver/public_html/administrator/components/com_virtuemart_allinone/languageFE

Translation: La ruta no es una carpeta. Ruta= The URL is not a folder. URL=

Seems the only effect of this is in the AIO which shows like this:



Seems a minor thing anyway, thanks for the great updates.

NOTE: Spanish language is 100% translated and I even reinstalled it after updating to check if that solved it but not.

[Milbo]

ah yes thanks. We moved the language files, but I noticed yesterday myself that we must have the "sys" language file in the normal joomla folder.
Btw your Mr/Mrs problem is solved!

testing captcha at checkout

VM 2.5.4

Code Select Expand

<?php
// captcha addition
if(VmConfig::get ('reg_captcha')){
JHTML::_('behavior.framework');
JPluginHelper::importPlugin('captcha');
$captcha_visible = vmRequest::getVar('captcha');
$dispatcher = JDispatcher::getInstance(); $dispatcher->trigger('onInit','dynamic_recaptcha_1');
$hide_captcha = (VmConfig::get ('oncheckout_only_registered') or $captcha_visible) ? '' : 'style="display: none;"';
?>
<fieldset id="recaptcha_wrapper" <?php echo $hide_captcha ?>><div id="dynamic_recaptcha_1"></div></fieldset>
<?php 


Works well except that the captcha jumps out at you with no additional message to let you understand that it is because you are trying to register an account:

Maybe a message prompt in place of or as well as the java pop message might help??

<fieldset id="recaptcha_wrapper" <?php echo $hide_captcha ?>>
                        <?php echo JText::_ ('COM_VIRTUEMART_REGISTER_AND_CHECKOUT_CAPTCHA_MESSAGE'); ?>
                        <div id="dynamic_recaptcha_1"></div></fieldset>

There is a JS alert message.

[bestimweb24]

Hi guys, is compatible with this one Joomla! 3?

No, vm 3 will be for J3. ATM vm 3 is in development.

There is a JS alert message.

Yes, I see the JSpop  I did note that but if you fail to enter the captcha you get an error anyhow

Maybe a message prompt in place of or as well as the java pop message might help??

But there is a bigger issue with multiple js prompts.
Users will get the firefox option in the js pop:-

Code Select Expand

Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs
This is firefox "feature"  If the dialogs follow one another closely in time, then the user gets the option to disable. and is very confusing (it is the first time I have seen it in FF )

Revealing the captcha and a message on registratin click would be far friendlier that poping a JS "error" notice

I like the captcha feature - can you clarify if this will prevent spam-bot registrations as they ignore JS??

If I decide not to register after seeing the cpatcha, I cannot "continue as guest" as the registration fields are being tested.

"- old ACL of vm is completly removed, proxy functions are still there, but using joomla authorization internally"

Don't know exactly what this means but administrators cant view the order list. This was reported in previous versions.

Please take a look we currently have to set our workers to super users so they can view the orders which is not the ideal solution.

Administrator viewing orders in the BE works fine for me, and they can also edit orders. When the only allowed option in VM is orders, then they cannot access any other VM area, they get "You are not authorised to view this resource." But orders are fine.

This is with VM2.5.4 from 18 March

Hi, the strange thing is that the order list is accessed by the administrator but only 2 orders created by that same admin appear.

I have checked the access and all the order/customers tab is set to allowed for admins.

I'm using 2.5.4 too.

I cant understand what is the goal of vm 2.5.x. Where can I read information. There is no news about it.
