Hi

I have Joomla 1.5.5 and latest Virtuamart 1.2.2 (Manual installation)

My shopping cart does not look like the demo on JoomlArt.

See: http://www.cotnevents.org.uk

How can I update my cart and how can I move the Currency Convertor slightly upwards?

Thanks

Paul

Check out this thread:
http://www.joomlart.com/forums/topic/virtuemart-your-shopping-cart-module-problem/

If you didn’t install from the QuickStart (I don’t believe you did based on a quick look at your site), then you need to go into the VirtueMart settings and change to the VM template ja_mesolite. Here’s how.

In Joomla Admin go here:

VirtueMart -> Configuration -> Site

There is a Layout section. Set the Layout to “ja-mesolite”

…

That fixes your cart problem. To move the currency selector, grab a copy of FireBug for Firefox and select the element, then you can play with the CSS easily to get it just how you want it.

Change what part of the layout?
I don’t seem to have that option.

Are you using VirtueMart 1.1.x or 1.0.x?

In 1.1.x there is an option under the Layout section in

VirtueMart -> Configuration -> Site

to change the layout. If you are using 1.0.x I can’t help you, but someone else here might.

Im using 1.1.0 stable.
The options I have are:
Select the theme for your Shop
Configuration
Default number of products in a row
Category Template
FLYPAGE
Enable Dynamic Thumbnail Resizing?
Thumbnail Image Width
Thumbnail Image Height
Any of the above correct?
No mention of Ja Mesolite anywhere.

I have worked out how to fix your problem;

what to do is the folder you download from joomlart.com should have a sub folder called extentions and then > there should be a file called ja_vm_theme.zip > unzip that file and click through till you get to the file that just say ja-mesolite and click copy.

NOW go to your joomla files in your site directory then open the components folder, then open com_virtuemart then open themes and now paste your ja-mesolite folder in there. Now when you go to the layout setting within virtuemart the option will be there to change this to ja-mesolite.

Hope this helps:)

Im experiencing the same problem. I have FTP the theme folder to the location specified in the instal manual (and on this thread) and when I try and change the layout to Mesolite, all there is in the dropdown box is default.

Using VM 1.1.2

Any ideas please ?
