VirtueMart Plugin for SOBI2

VirtueMart is a very nice shop- and SOBI2 a powerfull directory-component for Joomla, with that many tasks become easy to solve.

Now the VirtueMart -Plugin for SOBI2 by Netzelf should serve as a little bridge between both components. This plugin allows you to select VirtueMart categorys in and the products from these categorys then will be shown in the SOBI2-Entrys.

VirtueMart Listing form

Features:

  • Add, remove and sort categorys
  • Resize the window in the SOBI2-forms
  • Allow/deny editing in frontend
  • De-/activate display of products price, “add to cart”-link and categorys title
  • Setting, if row if there should be a break between categorys or if products should be displayed one after another
  • Number of columns adjustable

    Then you go in the entry-form and assign categorys with doubleclick.

    The plugin description says
    “De-/activate display of products price, “add to cart”-link and categorys title ”

    How do we do that, I tried creating a new Entry in Sobi, there wasn’t any option to connect to cart nor adding a category by double clicking works, could you please provide some steps / examples.
    thanks

    I did not test it with 1.5 but i apreciate if you could report if it works.

    You can switch off if a “add to cart”-link will be shown for the products. Therefor you have to go to SOBI2->Plugins->Virtue Mart Listing. There you can set the options i mentioned.

    To add categorys to an entry go to an entry form. There you should see your VM-categorys (like in the image above).
    To add a category to the entry simply double click a category on the left side of the table.

    Hope this helps you

    Unfortunately this plugin does’nt work with the recent versions of joomla and sobi2. At the moment the time for updating the plugin is missing. Cheers

    Nope – sorry. We stoped using SOBI2 and development for it. But you’re free to adapt the plugin for your needs

    Cheers,
