Hej Guys!

Im kinda new to Virtuemart and i ran into a problem. Im making this computer website and in my menu i have a button called ''Gaming Computers''
Click that and youll see all the products under the category of Gaming Computers. This is all good and i can work with that. The next problem is when i try clicking on of my products displayed whether its the name or the iimage of the product i just get error 404 page not found. How do I make it so ill see the product description?

I want to go from this:
http://demo.virtuemart.net/default-products

To this:
http://demo.virtuemart.net/default-products/vm-t-shirt-multi-variant-detail

Just with computers instead but its the easiest way to show.

Hope its an easy fix and hope you will help cuz im kinda stuck in my website building right now...

First thing is to switch off ALL SEF so you can see what is actually happening -- SEF is one of the last steps in site dev

WOW thx a lot that fixed it for now!

But what do I do when i turn it on again?.. then the problem will still be there

next step is to test with the std template..  Protostar ..  this will tell you if it is a template problem or not

you give no info as to any other 3rd party sef ext. etc that u may have

I tried switch to Protostar and turned on SEF = same problem page not found.. So its not a template error

Im not using any other SEF extensions. I only have Joomla, akeeba and Virtuemart install right now.

I tried clear the cache in Joomla with no luck either

Out of ideas - here is a Joomla3.4/VM3.0.6.2 with full SEF (htaccess enabled) that I am building
http://www.allvinyldecals.com/welcome-decals
as u can see it simply works...  no 3rd party extensions.
Based on Spyros's template at http://www.virtuemarttemplates.eu
