Hello,

In the related products section (product details page), I want the following information for each product: canonical category id

And it would be nice to have: product id, canonical category name

I probably need to customize VM core file to include this data in each related. Anyone can point me to which file/code to look for?

Thanks

Why?

JSitemap is not enough with standard core VM canonical category id?

You misunderstood me :)

I want to customize the Related Products section (the section below the main product).

product id, canonical category name

you can add in model related products (models is basic file for mysql select).
Of course, maybe this only load next basic model product, I don't know exactly now, because for related product we don't use core code, but we use modul VM product extended.

QuoteI want to customize the Related Products section (the section below the main product).

I think you have to edit:

components/com_virtuemart/sublayouts/customfield.php
components/com_virtuemart/sublayouts/customfields.php
components/com_virtuemart/sublayouts/related.php

or create override in your template.

Maybe you have to change next called core function (model product...)
