Hmm, i had follow what the instuction of you, and altered the relevant part as suit for my situation. it still not working.the links to the script file are correct. i still cracking my head for the answer. Haiz, awaiting your good news for new flypage come out..

About the 360 degree photography is not suit for product display since it need 32 images to create full spin.. and it does not connect with VM backend.. thats very headache issue

so i think another option is making an image gallery which link/connect with VM backend for display product pics slide show and using the flash to manage it, is it possible???

Example website:

1 more thing, i found that, do you disable/remove the recently view product? My opinion is, that is an important function for remind people what they had view, and can give them a clue to trace back..Further, current VM recently view product is displayed by text link, this is not good for trigger people awareness and not aesthetic. Perhaps can use product image instead of text link. that was much more better. Anyone can give a hand on this ??

the version 2 seems to be working better and i’ve set it up on another site, it’s not overly customisable unless your any good with php

with regards to the 360 photography you can use less images i think 16 is minimum but you loose the smoothness but depending on what you item is

i like you idea for the view recent products with images instead of text it sounds fairly easy to achive by replaceing the text link with product image, i’ll look in to that and see what i can come up with

just on another note does anyone know what the php call is for the manufacturer pop up and also send to a friend something along the lines of <?php echo $manufacturer_full?>

Dear infobuster,

Thanks for your advice that about the 360′ photography , i realize that is a very useful tool for many valuable product, like car, watch, and luxury goods.

I believe that the 360′ photography definitely will increase the SALEs !! hehehe

BUT is it connect with VM backend ?? May i have further info about this ?

Thanks for advice,

<blockquote>BUT is it connect with VM backend ?? May i have further info about this ?</blockquote>

how i do it is just create the 360 as a flash anim and then inport it in through the back end that way, as there are only a few products it didn’t need to have a complete back end admin to it but i don’t think it would be too dofficult to have the template setup and the images are imported into it from the back end, the only issue i could see would be you wouldn’t be able to test it for consistance and smoothness

1 user says Thank You to infobuster for this useful post

I am not really get what you mean, sorry for that, i am a novice on this issue. my understanding from your post:

import it in through the back end= Insert the flash code in the certain product flypage , am i correct?
If i correct, then if all my products using one flypage template, is it the 360 photo only display the one product pic?

Thanks in advance

how abt the progress of change the View Recent Product default text link to product pic display? is it really work? hehehe, Thanks ya

Scotty:

Something I just discovered as I was using your fix below and further developing my site. When I try to enable a module position for either the left or right, it gets pushed down the page and, in some cases, cut in half.

I don’t know if anyone else has experienced this issue or not (or if anyone else cares).

Is there a way you might suggest to configure the layout so that right and/or left position modules line up properly?

Seems it started out right in the original template –> HERE.
How can I get that layout division back?

With the kind help of Fabio I now know how to intigrate JA tabs into virtuemart but this version is the ‘lite’ version. I’ll post the JA Tabs version next week when I have it styled to Zeolite.

I have not tested this version extensivly! I have not tried it with things like Manufacturer link etc. I have not tested it in all browsers at different reolutions. So if anyone sees any problems please post them here.

The tabs can be easily styled in tabcontent.css and you can see a demo of the tabs here.

Instructions….

Step 1:Open /templates/ja_zeolite/index.php and between the <head> tags paste in the following code and save…
<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php echo $tmpTools->baseurl(); ?>/components/com_virtuemart/themes/ja-zeolite/tabcontent.css” />
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”<?php echo $tmpTools->baseurl(); ?>/components/com_virtuemart/themes/ja-zeolite/tabcontent.js”></script>Step 2:Go to /components/com_virtuemart/themes/ja-zeolite/templates/product_details/ and rename flypage.tpl.php to old_flypage.tpl.php
Step 3:Download the attachment and unzip it to your MAIN joomla directory (ie your root folder or whatever folder you have your site in). When asked if you wish to overwrite click YES. The only file that is overwritten is the flypage (which we backed up in step 2).

Please post here is you have any problems. JA Tabs version will be available next week sometime.</blockquote>

This has nothing to do with the tabs. You have edited the index.php to have #ja-contentwrap be outside #ja-contentwrapper somehow. Either that or you have a stray closing </div> somewhere.

Now why would I have gone and done a silly thing like that? :((

Hope I can figure out how to fix it back without having to start all over again.

Your HTML is being rendered like this….

<div id="ja-containerwrap-fl">
<div id="ja-container"><div id="ja-container-inner" class="clearfix">

<!-- BEGIN: CONTENT -->
<div id="ja-mainbodywrap">

<div id="ja-mainbody" class="clearfix">

<div id="ja-contentwrapper">

<!-- BEGIN: CONTENT -->

</div>

<div id="ja-contentwrap"><div id="ja-content">


It’s the </div> in red that is causing the problem.

Recently, i had study about how to add additional image in VM and link it under JA-TAB by scotty

Finally, i make it. Until now, i only realize that additional image is available in VM, thats NO HACK needed, herewith the tutorial of how to add in additional product image. Please bear with my ignorance of wasting peoples time. Sorry ya

Deeply appreciate for tcraw1010,scotty,infobuster kindness and help.

And i had add in the related code for add one more TAB in the flypage. which base on the code done by scotty. This code work for me smoothly.

The flypage path should be similar as this: /root/components/com_virtuemart/themes/ja-zeolite/templates/product_details then go to find the flypage.tpl.php which you use.

Any enquiries, please refer to this post by scotty.

Hello,
tcraw1010,scotty,infobuster where are you all….

Is it this thread ending? haiz…

Thought I would revisit this topic. Earlier in this thread, scotty did a marvelous job in creating a custom flypage for JA Zeolite utilizing tabbed content. My question at this point would be, however . . . . . .

What method could be used to add the tabbed content into ANY flypage theme?

I suppose one could examine scotty’s code structure and assume that one could apply it to virtually any flypage.tpl code – but as I am by no means an expert coder, I am hoping those of you who feel much more comfortable within the code might offer some insight as to the most foolproof method for accomplishing this task.

Looking forward to your input.

🙂

Correct. But I’m fairly certain there are a few extensions that will do this easier.
