Hi Kent,

I don’t have this particular template loaded but I’ll take an educated guess.
In your VirtueMart control area where categories are listed…click on the category you are wanting to hide…and then look at the parameters. There should be a “Show Category Title” area…and select “hide” or “no”.

If you would share a URL of your site…I could pin point other ways to get rid of it.

Thanks,
John.

that must be a code included in the template and you must find in the particular document to see waht line of code it is.

tell me it is in the products flypage or in the browse category page that you have this???

i ha ve made some tweekings yet with one sites i work for and i will point you in the right direction

the way to comment in php is as it

if you want to comment one line use the following
//

if you want to comment a block of code use the following
/* */

Hi,

I have already install VM theme for JA Mesolite.

Shertmann is right. I have actually done it once before but I forgot which file I should go for to comment out. I login to virtuemart.com, but the stupid website doesn’t load.

Honestly speaking, joomlart is more active and more helpful than virtuemart.com.

Anyway, I will search for it and get back here.

Hi,

I used the same way to comment out and delete the codes below, it worked on other template but not on JA Mesolite.

<?php
defined( ‘vmToolTipCalled’) or define(‘vmToolTipCalled’, 1);
echo $vendor_store_desc.”<br />”;
echo “<br /><h4>”.$VM_LANG->_(‘PHPSHOP_CATEGORIES’).”</h4>”;
echo $categories; ?>
<div class=”vmRecent”>
<?php echo $recent_products; ?>
</div>
<?php

change to

<?php
defined( ‘vmToolTipCalled’) or define(‘vmToolTipCalled’, 1);
echo $vendor_store_desc.”<br />”;
//echo “<br /><h4>”.$VM_LANG->_(‘PHPSHOP_CATEGORIES’).”</h4>”;
//echo $categories; ?>
<div class=”vmRecent”>
<?php echo $recent_products; ?>
</div>
<?php

even delete them:

<?php
defined( ‘vmToolTipCalled’) or define(‘vmToolTipCalled’, 1);
echo $vendor_store_desc.”<br />”;

<div class=”vmRecent”>
<?php echo $recent_products; ?>
</div>
<?php

but not worked on JA Mesolite, it worked on other templates, any advice?

Thanks!
Kent

Hi,

I have tried another way but still not working (because the code is not there at all), I believe that the JA Mesolite VM theme has been changed.

Here is another way I found, the code is not in this file:

Edit the file ps_product_category.php, located at:

administrator/components/com_virtuemart/classes

So, what can I do now?

Thanks!
Kent

Hi,

Sorry forgot to attached the code, I am really headache because of this, already few days, keep wasting time only looking for this solution:

In that file, around line 884 comment out or delete the line that says:-
$html .=$VM_LANG->_PHPSHOP_MORE_CATEGORIES.'<br />’;
