4. Modifying the Layout

The most important part of the Layout of your Shop is the Joomla template (Joomlahut.com

[http://mambohut.com/] is a good start)!

4.1. Finding the right File

When you want to modify a part of your Shop (that can't be changed in its layout using the Joomla template's

CSS), you must of course know, which file you have to modify, to create the layout you want.

To quickly find the file, which produces the HTML output you're seeing, you can enable the DEBUG mode

("Admin" => "Configuration" => "Path & URL" => check "DEBUG?" and save.

After having done that, you will see blue info icons all over the Shop, which show the file name of the included

file on mouseover.

The most changed files are

• .../html/shop.browse (the product listing / category overview)

• .../html/shop.product_details.php (the product detail page / view)

• .../html/shop.index.php (the default Shop Homepage (when the parameter page is omitted))

4.2. Modifying Templates

VM doesn't use a template engine (like patTemplate or Smarty) to parse its templates.

4.2.1. Flypage Templates

Flypage (or product details) templates can be found in /html/templates/product_details/.

They are loaded and filled with content in the file /html/shop.product_details.php.

The concept is to define placeholders in the template and replaced them by the real contents on load. This is

done using the PHP function str_replace.

The following placeholders are used:

./.

4.2.2. Browse Templates

Browse templates define the display of a single product in the product listing. So you can only modify the con-

tents of the boxes, which are filled with product information in the product listing of a category. The number of

those "boxes" - which are displayed in a single row of the product listing - can be changed in the Category Form

of that category (see Number of Products per row) or globally in the Shop Configuration (for the case that no

category_id is passed to the Shop).
