Hi

Honestly, if you want something simple them i would recommend K2 Store.
It's free, it's K2 addon, doesn't create any problem with responsive framework and it's supported also by our News Show Pro GK4.

And thank you for your nice words ;)

Cheers

I have tried the K2 store and the page display option was too limited. I wanted it to look like the bike store layouts.

So i looked at bike store and install virtual mart. Can I use the modules from bike store to set my site up like this?

or will I be able to do it using the modules already in game news?

and this

this is really good. How can I get my site to look like this with the boxes around the categories etc and the page display?

thank you

Hi again

Well... gamenews doesn't have virtuemart theme support, so a good start would be copying the following files from bikestore template:

.../templates/gk_bikestore/html/com_virtuemart/
.../templates/gk_bikestore/html/mod_virtuemart_cart/
.../templates/gk_bikestore/html/mod_virtuemart_category/
.../templates/gk_bikestore/html/mod_virtuemart_currencies/
.../templates/gk_bikestore/html/mod_virtuemart_search/

and paste them on
../templates/gk_gamenews/html/

Them open the following file:
../templates/gk_gamenews/layouts/blocks/head.php

and replace this line:
Code: Select all
$this->API->addCSS($this->API->URLtemplate() . '/css/gk.stuff.css');


with
Code: Select all
$this->API->addCSS($this->API->URLtemplate() . '/css/gk.stuff.css');
$this->API->addCSS($this->API->URLtemplate() . '/css/vm.css');


Next from the bikestore template, copy this file: ../templates/gk_bikestore/css/vm.css
and place it on ../templates/gk_gamenews/css/

Copy also this directory from bikestore template to gamenews
../templates/gk_bikestore/images/vm/


This is a good start.
Start doing this tests to see the result, but i warn you that it will need more adjustments.
