Online T-shirt site --Rocket Theme: Perihelion

[cassidyb]

Aloha VM community,

We just did a full redesign of our online t-shirt site and I would love you all to come over and let us know what you think.

Http://www.socialpropaganda.com

This is the 2nd redesign while using VM and I have to say it only gets better with age

Thanks for the feedback,

//Cassidy B.

really nice - was this created with latest version of vm?

one minor point - the title of the site says 'Welcome to the Frontpage'!

Are you thinking of SEO for the site and if so do you have any components in mind?

excellent work!

Very nice site!

I have 2 questions:

1. how could you make the "new" tags on the module list in the homepage?

2. the In stock: 3 and the dropdown quantity box how can be dynamic? I mean its follow the stock? (in this case I can buy max 3)

stucked at "0"

nice flypage, which hack is the product images handling?

[bulesz]

I would increase the dropdown submenu's width by 10px...look at "Stores/Social Propaganda" the arrow doesnt fit in...

[Nirm]

I think the image handling is with Phoca Gallery

Oh, yes...the dreaded "white space".  This problem haunted me on a dozen different sites.  I played with the Joomla templates and hacked the site all to he** just to find the solution was fairly simple.

Go to ADMIN --> CONFIGURATION --> SITE(tab)   then under the cell "Layout" select "configuration" link.

Here you'll see a drop-down list for Product List Style.  The options are:

• Product Listing with a table (default)
• Flat Product List (fixed to 1 product per row, using table)
• Product List (no table, div based)

Changing from "Div Based" to "Table" or vis ves seemed to fix the problem.  The problem lies between this configuration and it's correlation to "Category Template" you've selected.[/color]

Make sure the "Category Template" is 'div-based' if you've selected "Product List" or that it's using a 'table' if your "Category Template is "using a table".


This worked for me on the Perihelion template.  There are other Joomla templates in RocketThemes (Dimensions) that just don't play well with Virtuemart.  Good Luck!

Any luck with the flypage theme Nirm?

[Tom Behrens]

Yes, please help here.  I'm having the same problem with Perehelion and VM playing nicely together and nothing presented here seems to resolve the white space issue, which is different depending on which page you are on. 

For example, on the category flypage, product listing behaves nicely, but the Featured Products module is pushed all the way below the right hand (or left, it doesn't matter) modules.  When you click on the Product Details page, it is completely blank up top with the product info pushed below the modules.

I've searched all over this forum before posting here, hoping that someone will give us some wisdom.
