Editing addresses doesn't work ?!

[melsonmarketing]

I just updated a site and now it's impossible to edit customer accounts in the FE.

calling "index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=user&layout=edit" leads to a "0 - Call to a member function get() on null"

Php7.2.18
J! 3.9.13
VM 3.6.10

disabling

- overrides
- JCH Optimize
- SEF

Doesn't make a difference.

Thanks for your assistance

use Joomla debug to get the full error trace so we know where the error is thrown

Ahh dam. My error. You can solve it by having a menu item for your account maintenance. But it should also work without.

Or use the attached file. Remove the .txt and upload it to yourRoot/components/com_virtuemart/views/user

[Linnemann]

Dear Milbo,

thank you for quick reply.
After making a menu item and changing the file Root/components/com_virtuemart/views/user/view.html.php the problem with editing adress is solved.
But now I have a problem with the Joomla Register funktion.
If I click on the "Register" link in login form I get an error ...

Debug Mode now says:

0 Call to a member function get() on null
/*ROOT*/components/com_virtuemart/views/user/view.html.php:362

Can you help me, too?

Kind regards

[Milbo]

alright, the error is two times there. So last time I fixed only one place. Comes due an optimisation, but I should find a pattern which more failproof.

[Linnemann]

Now it works fine in my installation.

Thank you. I'm glad you're taking on the ploblem so quickly.

[melsonmarketing]

It's working here too

Thank you!

Is it possible the create an alias for url ../index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=user , to use a more friendly url when people want to register themselves / create an account?

[Linnemann]

Is it possible the create an alias for url ../index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=user , to use a more friendly url when people want to register themselves / create an account?

Yes it is possible, you just have to creat a menu item. With Munetyp "Virtuemart" -> "VirtueMart Kontenpflege" (in german) [it is the 8th one].

I already have to menu option, but only for registered (logged in) users. That works correct with the alias.
When I use the same menu option, with a differrent alias for Public users, it doesn't work.
But when I am writing this, i've found out what is wrong. I use a template with a direct link ../index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=user. My menu with the alias for this doesn't work now, of course. When i change the link to the alias, it DOES work.

and if u add the &Itemid=xxx to it?

although this bug will be fixed in the next release ( already fixed in the test VM3.6.11 series )
