It is based on the parameter name, not the value you give to label. Label is the actual value to be displayed. The label is output by appending _label to the parameter name. (See below) e.g. Parameter Type: Testing Parameter Name: test Parameter Label: Test {Testing:test_label} {Testing:test} would output Test this is a 123 test...

Thanks for your (very) quick reply. Love it. It works fine now!! In which file do I have to delete (or comment-out) the code that provides the 'info icon' and parameter description hover - I don't want that functionality. screen: (turned of page-styling for better view) Thanks ^_^

Remove the short description or description from the product type (I can't remember which!) If it exists the icon and mouse over are generated, if it does not then it isn't.

Re:Product Types Modification 3 Years, 11 Months ago

Hi, I attempted to post this on the mod page but it did not show up. I love what I have read about what this will do. The problem I'm having is, after applying the mod and adding what I think are all the required details to the product, when I go to the product page to see it I get the message

Code: :


 {product_type}

where the details are supposed to be. COuld someone please help me figure this out. Thanks a lot!

Oh, Iforgot to mention, I'm running Joomla 1.0.13 Stable with VM 1.0.14 Stable.

Re:Product Types Modification 3 Years, 11 Months ago

Because your flypage has not been altered, {product_type} is no longer used with this mod!

This is explained on the mods page and earlier on this thread!

if your product_type name was new_type and your first parameter was param1 then to output the label you would use this in your flypage

Code: :


 {new_type:param1_label}

and to output the actual value stored you would use

Code: :


 {new_type:param1}

Re:Product Types Modification 3 Years, 11 Months ago

So I have altered the file shop.product_details.php as shown and replaced the file ps_product_type.php with the one from the zip download. Was I supposed to mod another file or specify a different flypage? The message

Code: :


 {product_type}

is showing in the store under the product. I am very sorry to trouble you with my NOOBEness (I'm such a "noobe" I don't know if that's the right spelling for noobe). I may not understand what you mean as I am fairly new to VM. Thanks again.

Re:Product Types Modification 3 Years, 11 Months ago

Yes, you have to edit your flypage!

Your flypage defines how your product details page is layed out.

Product types would normally be displayed in a list, the whole point of this mod is to enable you to place individual elements of a product type anywhere you wish on your flypage and not just as a table!

For help on flypages, where they are etc, please refer to virtuemarts site. I am not going to explain here how to edit a flypage when there is a whole forum board just for this on VM's site.
