Startup + Virtuemart

Hi,
How can I incorporate the Gk Bike virtuemart theme to GK Startup, please advise.

Hi


1)

Copy this directories:

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

into ../gk_startup/html/

2)

Copy also template vm css files
../gk_bikestore/css/vm.css
../gk_bikestore/css/vmframe.css

into ../gk_startup/css/

3)
Identify all vm classes on:

../gk_bikestore/css/style1.css
../gk_bikestore/css/style2.css
../gk_bikestore/css/style3.css

and reproduce them on the startup style files (naturally colors must be changed).

4)
Next open the following file:
../gk_startup/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');


5)
Be sure that you have "Use Joomla default" theme on "Select the default template for your Shop" and "Category Template " Virtuemart parameters on Configurations > Templates.

Basic should work now, but it might need css adjustments on override classes.

Cheers

Hi Seichinha,

Thank you so much for the quick respond, you guys are the best, that is why I am going to renew my membership for the fifth time, you create beautiful/functional templates and your support is awesome.

Thanks,

That's excellent news

I just have 2 minor issues, the add to cart button shows the "Green Default" one the product page and Current Stock Level doesn't show up on the category page, even though I copied the vm folder to images folder, please advise.

Go to Virtuemart settings > Templates and make sure that you have "Using the VirtueMart CSS" parameter disable.

Thanks
