Virtuemart Ajax Product Search

We've developed a new Joomla and Virtuemart extension which enables you to search your products the Google way. For demo please visit http://testvm.rupostel.sk/ and search for RuposTel VirtueMart Ajax Search with input box "Product Search" at the left modules.

 

This extension is provided as is, with no additional support unless agreed otherwise. The extension is provided "as is" and includes a hidden back link to our site. Please don't remove the link if you like this extension and want to support us. These are the features:

VirtueMart Ajax Product Search module which does not depend on any javascript platform such as mootools written in pure javascript. - Includes own SQL search queries
- ajax results can be styled with own code
- Creates and shows own thumbs for products (GD Required)
- Caches the result of the search thus making it much faster
- Uses post for AJAX
- Supports SEO extensions
- products are given the deepest category id so breadcrumbs and VM menu shows correct paths
- uses your Virtuemart's language files - no translation is necessary
- installs and uninstalls cleanly with joomla installer

hello Ruben, this seems to be a problem with SEF component. I will investigate if it does in Artio SEF as well. Which SEF component are you using?

Hi.
The mod is working well, thanks for it, but when I start typing it shows this message at the bottom :
Fatal error: Class 'shSEFConfig' not found in /.........../root/plugins/system/shsef.php on line 279

Well I am using SH404SEF. Maybe Conflict?
Is there a fix for it?
Thanks a lot.

-1 # Limit the searchStoyan 2011-08-03 10:16
Hello there,
I wonder is there an option to limit the search in sertain category? For example: I make two categories in my online shop - "Clothes" and "Shoes". I want to put a copy of the module in "Clothes" and another one in "Shoes". When a search is performed on each of the copies of the module, to show results only from the particular category. Is this possible?

Thanks a lot in advance!

-1 # Custom SQLadmin 2011-08-03 11:28
Hello Storyan,
please have a look into /modules/mod_vm_ajax_sea rch/ajax/index.php where you can customize your SQL queries. In the next version Ajax search will work with joomfish-virtuemart sites and will be able to search translations of the product.

-1 # RE: Custom SQLStoyan 2011-08-03 14:13
Hey, thanks for the fast replay! :) I looked at this file but I don't know PHP and I don't understand what should be changed in order to customize the SQL queries. Anyway, I'm not sure that's what I need. If anything is changed in this file, this will limit the search for all the copies of the module I make. I want to make one copy for category "Clothes", another copy for category "Shoes" and etc. That means for each copy of the module, different settings. The settings in the index.php file are going to reflect for all the copies of the module, aren't they? What I need is more like an option in the beckend settings.

-1 # redirect the default search addressSearching 2011-08-09 19:28
The default search call is going to the default root level instead of the relative path for the Joomla install. where in /modules/mod_vm_ajax_sea rch/ajax/index.php would I adjust the default seach call to default to the root of my joomla install instead?

Example: When submitting search string it goes to;

www.randomurl.com/.../

needs to be changed to:

randomurl.com/.../...

If I can get this little bit figured out this mod will be a perfect solution for my search needs.

Thanks!

The live search works but.

After typing a search string and clicking the search buton it doesnt delivers any results in the search page. 0 Results.

If you press "enter" after typing works well.

tested on testvm.rupostel.sk/ using FF, IE, Chrome

If you are getting problems with relative path such as /CATALOG/index.php being just /index.php please make sure your URL and SECUREURL in Virtuemart configuration at Security tab is properly configured.

I have the same problem.
I have correctly configured URL and SECUREURL in VirtueMart.
I looked through all the code default.php.
Adjusting of $base_dir did nothing.
I adjusted line 43, adding 'CATALOG/' before index.php, and when I make a search on the site, each time the script duplicated the 'CATALOG'. (That is, when you try to use searching, you get 'http://MYSITE.com/CATALOG/CATALOG/index.php?keyword=SEARCH&Itemid=10&option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&Search=blablabla')

hello, please have a look into the source code of the generated ajax page which you can find in you /cache directory and let me know the urls of the images and if they are generated. It requires a GD library.

Hey! Thank you for this great module, it works wonders on the site I'm currently working on since it is the only ajax search that I found to be properly working with VM. I do however have a problem with the images - just as mentioned before there are no images generated when I search for something, only grey boxes. I checked the cache folders and there wasn't anything generated there too. I also get an error on the bottom of the results stating "Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/instock/public_html/shop/plugins/system/rokcandy_system .php on line 125". I would be really grateful if you could help me!

0 # Thumbs Problemadmin 2012-05-11 15:12
Hello, pls make sure you have appropriate permissions on the cache folder and also for the VM image path. It uses GD to generate the thumbs, so please check if your hosting supports it. The ajax page is loaded in different path than joomla's index.php file which can cause problems with some of the external plugins. If i have a little bit time, i can rewrite it into module with a component helper so it loads as a normal joomla page.
