VM Redirecting Problem 1 Year, 7 Months ago  
Hi Peter,

I'm using the AMM to show on VirtueMart Category List pages (menu assignment) and 'disappear' when someone clicks on a product on the list, which goes to the product details page (excluse URL 'flypage=flypage.tpl').

This works very well!

The tricky thing is when someone post a product review/rating on the product details page. Upon submission, VM route the page back to the product details page... however AMM reappears because now the URL is just plain 'index.php' without the trailing stuff i.e. 'flypage=flypage.tpl'.

Now how do I hide AMM on any site/index.php page?

Please help!

Then you'll have to use the PHP field to evaluate the actual flypage.
Try something like:
$flypage = JRequest::getCmd( 'flypage' );
return ( $flypage != 'flypage.tpl'' );

Or
$flypage = JRequest::getCmd( 'flypage' );
return ( $flypage == 'the flypage you do want to show it on.tpl'' );

works very well to hide the flypage...

however the problem is... once the rating/review is submitted via the flypage... VM redirects to just plain-jane index.php without the trailing flypage... hence the 'reappearing' of AMM...

this is a tough one

Re: VM Redirecting Problem 1 Year, 7 Months ago  
When your url is just index.php, it mean VM is sending the data via post instead of url.
The php method checks for the flypage value whether it is sent by post or get (url).
So maybe you should check on another value instead of flypage. I am not sure what values VM sents via post on the tating/review. You could see that if you look in the form html of the page.

Re: VM Redirecting Problem 1 Year, 7 Months ago  
actually I just want to assign to the menu link page (which is the VM category page). Once the visitor clicks on any product to go deeper, I want the AMM to go hiding (in fact on all pages, except the assigned menu link). Is there a rock solid way to do that?

    <input type="hidden" name="option" value="<?php echo $option ?>" />
    <input type="hidden" name="page" value="<?php echo $page ?>" />
    <input type="hidden" name="category_id" value="<?php echo @intval($_REQUEST['category_id'])  ?>" />
    <input type="hidden" name="Itemid" value="<?php echo @$_REQUEST['Itemid']  ?>" />
    <input type="hidden" name="func" value="addReview" />

That would mean it should only show up on the url the menu item has, right? Why not only assign to that url?

I did assign to that menu item (and a few more). But I don't understand why it doesn't work... I had to put in the PHP statement to make sure AMM doesn't appear after the rating post.

I don't mean the 'Menu assignment', I mean the URL assignment.

Re:VM Redirecting Problem 1 Year, 7 Months ago  
cos URL assignment won't work

the menu item is
option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=77&lang=en


the flypage url is
page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=23&category_id=7&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=77&lang=en


you can see both contains the same 'option' and same 'Itemid'
