Hi,

Note: The procedure is exactly the same for Virtuemart3.x and Virtuemart 2.x

As you might know, CleanMart comes a feature of showing more than 1 product thumbnails in the category browse page.
But there is small patch that should be applied to Virtuemart Core file in order to achieve this. Don't worry, this is not a Core Hack, it is an innocent customization.

1- Open this PHP file:
2- Based on your Virtuemart version, apply the following coding patch:

For VM3.0.14+:
find:replace with:

For VM3.0.12+:
find:replace with:

---

For VM3.0.0 - VM3.0.10:
find:replace with:

---

For VM2.x:
find:replace with:

---

And that's it. You are all set.

From now on, all the additional product pictures will be visible in the category browse page.
You might also consider to change that number "1" to "3" or "5" instead of completely eliminating, so... that many product pictures will be visible only. For instance, if some of your product has 10 additional pictures, it would make sense to make that number 4 or 5, so there won't be any layout corruption in the browse page.

Every time you update Vrtuemart to a newer version, you need to apply this patch manually (each time) because your change would get back to stock once you update your Virtuemart.

Regards.

Hi, guys!

Ten days ago you verified my website and said that everything was OK (and actually, it looks like that it is). Then I feel that some pages weren´t looking like that template (ClearMart) and couldn´t find how to show them the right way. At this moment, I was seeing my CATEGORY PAGES with 3 CATEGORIES PER LINE, with multiplke lines.

Then, I applied again your Tutorial, copying again the DRAG AND DROP files to my template HTML folder; Now my category pages shows only ONE image per line (distribuidoradafec.org.br/s1/index.php/cat-generos).



You already have my credentials at this email replies we exchanged before ("Re: I bought and I am not sure about what I bought!"). If you need that I send it again, please also send me your IP number, so I can ask to give you access for FTP (last time you used ProFiles, from inside Joomla).

Thanks again for any help. Waiting the 2 days time.

PS: I cheched this hack and everything is OK, except that the command line is around line 120.

Regards

Hi,

Because your Joomla Template has this CSS rule:
which is ridiculous css rule, i don't know why your Joomla template has this rule. It forces to category grid has 100% all the time.

To fix it. Open this CSS file:
distribuidoradafec.org.br/s1/templates/rt_epsilon/html/com_virtuemart/assets/css/flexibleVM2Global.css

and include this CSS rule:
and you will be good to go.

just a quick one the code in VM 3 have changed and it is now

from:
$productModel->addImages($this->products, VmConfig::get('prodimg_browse',1) );

replace by:
$productModel->addImages($this->products, VmConfig::get('prodimg_browse') );

Thanks for raising this M Heos,. in VM3.0.12, the line has been changed in the Core file.

But actually you are little mistaken, you should replace this:
into this:

FYI: Looks like VmConfig::get('prodimg_browse',1) is a variable that is taken from Virtuemar Config file.. But honestly, there is no field in the Virtuemart backend to match that variable. Maybe I missed it? Anybody noticed a new parameter in the VM Backend >> Configuration that controls the VmConfig::get('prodimg_browse') ?

regards.

thank you i don't know for this variable :)

I suppose, VM Team thought about altering the image-count for the category-page, but then forgot to create the field in the VM configuration dashboard ;)
