Hello,

I’m using your template with Virtuemart.
Is it possible disable the masshead module and use default titles?

If not, how can I associate titles to virtuemart categories?

Both the following are not working:

[Masshead option=”com_virtuemart” view=”category” Itemid=”1″ title=”Abbigliamento” ][/Masshead]
[Masshead option=”com_virtuemart” view=”category” virtuemart_category_id=”1″ title=”Abbigliamento” ][/Masshead]

Thanks.

Hi,

Basically, you can use one of these 2 formats for JA Masshead:

[Masshead option=”com_name2″ view=”view_name1″ layout=”layout_name2″ task=”task_name2″ id=”id2″ title=”Title2″ ]Description 2 here[/Masshead]
[Masshead Itemid=”page_id1_1,page_id1_2,…” title=”Title page 1″ ]Description page 1 here[/Masshead]

In our demo site, we use the 2nd one, for example: [Masshead Itemid=”514″ title=”wheels” ][/Masshead]

If you want to use the first one, you need to disable SEF url in global configuration first, then look at the URL of page you want to add JA Masshead module, it will helps you to configure easier: http://prntscr.com/2aipiu.

Here is format added to configuration conditions:

[Masshead option=”com_content” view=”category” layout=”blog” id=”78″ title=”Here is skateboards here”][/Masshead]

Yes, this is all written in the guide and I already know it.
But do you tested it with Virtuemart?

Ho do I associate to this url?
http://www.mysite.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=category&virtuemart_category_id=8

Thanks

Hi,

I suggest you use the second format. For example:

– I create a new menu item which shows products of ‘Skateboards‘ VM category. then it has menu item ID = 595

– Go to configuration condition in JA Masshead module, I add: [Masshead Itemid=”595″ title=”skateboards” ][/Masshead]

Also in backend settings of this module > Menu assignment section > I select to view this module to above created menu item

It should work.

Regards

Thank you for your reply.
I can’t use your method because the category and its subcategories are all associated to the same Itemid.
I resolved after modding the helper.php file to parse the url for virtuemart_category_id instead of id.

BUT,
having lots of categories is a pain associate in the module every single id, so I ask if there is a way, disabling the module from Joomla to show the standard page title.

Now if I disable it I get NO TITLE AT ALL.

Thanks again

Hi,

May I know which standard page title you’re mentioning? Could you send me screenshot or link to sample page including it?
