User Manual
- Pls. see it in your installed AllVideos plugin
Add videos &Tabs to VirtueMart products
- The procedure:
- Here's the solution to enable the plugin for the "product details" page:
- Open up the file <Joomla Directory>administrator/components/com_virtuemart/html/shop.product_details.php and in the end of it, look for:
/* Finish and Print out the Page */ echo $template;
- Add codes so that the overall the change is:
// start modification for "content type" plugin parsing global $_MAMBOTS; $_MAMBOTS->loadBotGroup( 'content' ); $row->text = $template; $results = $_MAMBOTS->trigger( 'onPrepareContent', array( &$row, &$params, $page ), true ); $template = $row->text; // end modification for "content type" plugin parsing /* Finish and Print out the Page */ echo $template;
- This will load the "content type" plugins in VirtueMart. That means that you can use the AllVideos Plugin to add videos in your products (as showcase) and even use the "Tabs & Slides in Content Items" Plugin to display your product's details in Tabs and/or Slides!!

Related Problem: "Forbidden Error"
- Ref: SiteGnd Support ticket ID:172500 -- 2007-03-13 10:30am
- Problems:
I tried to access the following directly in a web browser: http://www.myanmarartclub.com/_Files/g2data/albums/Multimedia/Audio/Welcome.mp3 but... not successful due to the below "Forbidden Error": =========================== Forbidden You don't have permission to access /_Files/g2data/albums/Multimedia/Audio/Welcome.mp3 on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. ============================ when moving the mp3 file outside the "g2data" folder, e.g. public_html/_Files --> it's accessible and the mp3 auto-played by quicktimes in the browser Actually the "g2data" is created by the Gallery2 photoalbum system during its installation. I have checked that the whole directory path, i.e. public_html/_Files/g2data/albums/Multimedia/Audio/ has been set with permission "755" and Welcome.mp3 with "644" so pls. check what's wrong with the "g2data" folder? i.e. what settings make the mp3 file not accessible? and how can I make all the files and sub-folders under the directory: public_html/_Files/g2data/albums/Multimedia be accessible? While... not affecting the security measure of the Gallery2 Album! |
- Response:
Hello, I have carefully investigated your case and I have found a .htaccess file in the g2data directory. This file contained a directive "Deny from All". I have modified this directive to "Allow form All" and now http://www.myanmarartclub.com/_Files/g2data/albums/Multimedia/Audio/Welcome.mp3 is accessible. However, there is sensitive information in the g2data directory if you want it to be unaccessible again, just edit: _Files/g2data/.htaccess and replace "Allow form All" with "Deny from All".
