Storefront Template problems

CCT27

Hi
I have a list of Deprecated errors after installing the quickstart template Storefront.

To begin, after following installation instruction from the Joomlart website, the installation failed saying "No configuration file found and no installation code available. Exiting…". I then used Akeeba Kickstart to do the installation and it seemed to install ok.
Once installed the template is not near a replicate of the demo site. When I seen all the deprecated errors, I updated Joomla Core and all extensions. There are a lot of overrides to check also.
I also setup a new menu item to a virtuemart category, it also doesn't display properly. Menu item "Cameras" is on main menu with a submenu "Digital Compact Cameras". There should be 1 product in this category.

Can you please explain why all 3 issues are happening and how to fix them.

Thank you

CCT27 Hi

The deprecated messages are from the compatibility issues with PHP 8.1.

I updated 2 files on your site for mod_menu & mod_custom:

/templates/gk_storefront/html/mod_custom/default.php
/templates/gk_storefront/html/mod_menu/default.php

It's working fine now.

Kindly check.

Hi
Your answer was for the deprecated part of Question 2, why is it not like demo? Also what about question 1 and 3? Could you please answer all queries in full.

Also, still deprecated errors as listed below on page index.php/virtuemart/category-layout. (This was only one page I visited, there maybe more)

Sorry if you are the only one to answer and fix support queries, as that appears to be so, but we run a business and subscribed to Joomlart's best package to help speed up our site building, the Joomlart website sold this to us but so far we are building slower to due template problems and very slow support response. Can you please pass this on to whoever is responsible, I really hope you get more help with support soon, this is not encouraging us to continue using Joomlart and partner products.

Thanks

CCT27 Hi

1 - I don't know which quickstart version you used to install and your site is running already so I guess it's ok now

2 - For the deprecated errors, we released a new version of this template, pls backup your site and install latest version into your site: https://www.joomlart.com/member/downloads/gavick/joomla-templates/storefront

3 - In the category view of Virtuemart, it will show products like you configure via Virtuemart settings, if you assign that menu item : /index.php/cameras/digital-compact-cameras/ to Cassiopeia template - the standard template of Joomla, you will see it's showing the same products like our template.
