Hi,

I’ve found a solution, completing a part of luciffere’s code.

Modificating in
administrator\components\com_virtuemart\html\shop.product_details.php at last part.

echo $tpl->fetch( ‘/product_details/’.$flypage . ‘.php’ );

with:

$template = $tpl->fetch( ‘/product_details/’.$flypage . ‘.php’ );
$template = vmCommonHTML::ParseContentByPlugins( $template );
echo JHTML::_(‘content.prepare’, $template);

I hope it will be usefull.

Salu2

OK, so I more of a designer than a techy programmer person, so tend to just see if things work and flag them when they don’t! BUT, I have approved some comments on the blog for someone who didn’t have the right version of joomla, maybe the solution for you is there? It only works for the versions i have in the header, they were using another method of tabbing that didn’t work when the CMS and Shop were updated, hense why i found the solution i posted about.

As far as i know (although its a redesign i have been working on.. so the site has a whole history I am unaware of) thats all you need to do. But when i am next in there i will have a look and see what i can see. Let you know if anything pops up that might help.

Thanks for the post. However, I followed your solution step-by-step but nothing happens for me – the text and markup just appears in the product description. Is there something else I need to install?

For work must enable mambots in VM, and made some modifications inadministrator\components\com_virtuemart\html\shop.product_details.php arrount line 444:
change: echo $tpl->fetch( ‘/product_details/’.$flypage . ‘.php’ );

with: /*Custom mod to alow plugin to scan yout product detail template*/
$template = $tpl->fetch( ‘/product_details/’.$flypage . ‘.php’ );
$template = vmCommonHTML::ParseContentByPlugins( $template );
echo $template;
/*end custom mod*/

And now work….

Got any examples of sites you’ve added it to? I find it really hard to find decent examples or virtuemart shops.
