How can I change the "Product details" text to a text of my own like only "Product", in a Joomla Virtuemart installation? example here

I've tried looking in the used template's css files but didn't find anything right to modify or add. And also I've looked in the administrator panel of Joomla Virtuemart, but no option there neither.

what's in the red circles

Try this,

Its a text that comes from the language file, You can find the file on the following path.

language\en-GB\en-GB.com_virtuemart.ini

COM_VIRTUEMART_PRODUCT_DETAILS="Product details"

Just change these text with what ever you want..

Its a core edit keep in mind while the VM UPDATION.

Hope it works..

  • This may happen due to no default shopper groups in VM or current logged in users is not assigned to any shopper groups. So check admin->VM->Orders and shoppers->shopper groups-> Make sure one default shopper group is available for the Shop. Also check if current users have proper groups. – Jobin Feb 05 '14 at 03:06

Rather than editing the language.ini file, I would suggest you use a Language Override. The problem with editing the file is that if and when you decide to install an update for VirtueMart, you will lose your changes.

To perform a Language Override:

  1. Login to your Joomla backend
  2. On the top menu, go to Extensions >> Language Manager
  3. Click on the Overrides tab. then click New
  4. In the field Language Constant, type in COM_VIRTUEMART_PRODUCT_DETAILS
  5. In the Text field, type in Product which is what the button text will be replaced with.

Hope this helps
