Jack Hittle	Is there any way to stop so much SPAM coming from Ask A Question about a product?

Support	Hi, It is a big problem for all websites. (not just virtuemart or joomla) You can block %90 of them by adding Captcha human-verification plugin. Look here: extensions.joomla.org/extensions/access-a-security/site-security/captcha/18364 As far as now, this non-commercial (free) extension works okay with VM2 (but i haven't tried it yet, just give it a try) Regards. Forum Support.

Jack Hittle	Thank you so much. Works Great! Next issue - "Mail sent successfully" - "Thank you for your Question. We will contact you as soon as possible. Close (button)" Close button doesn't work. Is that part of the theme or is that Virtuemart2?

Hi,

That problem has been fixed already but probably the PureMArt version you are holding is lack of this patch.
The solution is pretty easy though.

First find this PHP file:
ROOT/components/com_virtuemart/views/askquestion/tmpl/mail_confirmed.php

And copy this file to here:

ROOT/templates/<yourjoomlatemplate>/html/com_virtuemart/askquestion/mail_confirmed.php

then open it, and find this LINE:

<button on-click="parent.jQuery.facebox.close();" type="button"><?php echo JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_CLOSE'); ?></button>

And change it with this:

<button on-click="parent.jQuery.facebox.close();history.go(-1);" type="button" formaction="">
	<?php echo JText::sprintf('COM_VIRTUEMART_CATEGORY_BACK_TO', $this->product->product_name); ?>
</button>
