VirtueMart User Manual

Publish (show)/Unpublish (hide) Fields

You can publish and unpublish fields by clicking on the icon in the column "Published". After that

the publish state will be toggled.

Changing Fields

You can access the field form by clicking a field name in the User Field List. In this form you can

modify all settings except the field type.

5.7.4.3. Deleting Fields

You can delete all non-system fields from the User Field List. You just need to click on the Trash Bin

icon at the end of the row of the item you want to remove. You can also select the checkboxes of the

fields which you want to delete and then click the "Remove" button in the toolbar.

5.8. Order Administration

Your shop is online, your catalogue is bursting at the seams, you’ve run all of your payment processing

tests, and you're ready to go live! Well, maybe not quite. You need to know what to do when those

orders come flooding in. When someone orders a product through your VirtueMart website, a record

is created in the system with the details of the order.

The order record has a ‘status’ to indicate where the order is in the stream of events – for example,

whether it has been paid for, shipped, or cancelled. The actual values you use for status are up to you,

but by default you are given status values of Pending, Confirmed, Cancelled, Refunded, and Shipped.

If you want to define your own status values, you can do so by selecting "List Order Status Types’

from the ‘Order Status’ sub-menu of the "Orders" menu.
