joomla Constancemart更改列表产品视图

Question

The site I am working on is here , using Joomla v1.5.23 and Viruemart 1.1.9

I need to add new way of listing products, so that the customer can change views. I don't know where to start. I googled a lot but it is still very confusing to me.

Do I have to make new modul, theme or templates or there is some magic button in admin panel where I can change the view? Can you give me some links to tutorials?

Answer 1

The way a product is displayed in VM is with the "flypages" (that's what you want to google for). The installation provides a few samples (they're not particularly great), though they give you an idea how to modify the appearance of the page. You can specify which flypage to use in a link, but I think VM natively chooses one based on the category in which the product exists (A product can be in mulitple categories too).
