Using Shadowbox with Virtuemart

March 24th, 2010

I forgot to mention in my previous post that when using Virtuemart and Shadowbox you end up with double popups if you enable the lightbox option in Virtuemart.

It’s easy to fix just following the instructions on the Virtuemart formum

To summarise you just locate the file administrator/components/com_virtuemart/classes/htmlTools.class.php and find this line at line 899.

$link = vmCommonHTML::hyperLink( $image_link, $text, '', $title, 'rel="lightbox'.$image_group.'"' );

Replace it with this instead.

$link = vmCommonHTML::hyperLink( $image_link, $text, '', $title, 'rel="shadowbox'.$image_group.'"' );
