Hello

Using Joomla! 3.10.11 -  VirtueMart 3.8.9 10473

We have been using the plugin Cat-Product for many many years but can't get in touch with them anymore.
With plugin Cat Product as a customsfield we are able to display a published Parent product with image, description and price (no add to cart on parent)
and below a table that lists all childs product with one add to cart for all children (and a lot of other options for childs).

Does anybody know if it's possible in the default Virtuemart to achieve this?

Not natively no ..  is the Cat-Prod thing not working for you?

I am still using it on VM4 - Catproduct version: 3.2.4  - though can't remember if I had to change something..

I think Studio 42s does a similar thing?

Thanks GJC - we are also on Cat-Product version 3.2.4 and it is working fine on our present
PHP Version 7.4.33 – but I have tried (via .htaccess) to update our test site to PHP version to 8 to see if everything was working but get this error:

0
NON-STATIC METHOD CATPRODUCTADMIN::GETFIELDVARS() CANNOT BE CALLED STATICALLY

yes ... php8 is very pedantic ... but normally it isn't such a big job to find and fix all errors between 7 & 8

Just go thru them step by step  - or stay on on 7.4..  :)
