We are almost there. Our new version is being tested daily in various test environments and most features are working to our satisfaction. So well, in fact, that the first VM testers are planning to go live with smaller stores soon.</p>
<h2>VirtueMart 4 Update Procedure</h2>
<p>Upgrade or Migration? Don't worry, the changes in Joomla 4 are substantial in some areas, but we have made sure that you can update from VirtueMart 3 to VirtueMart 4 like a normal update, mostly with just a click of a button. We can provide you with an installation package that is compatible with Joomla 3 and Joomla 4.</p>
<h2>VirtueMart 4 loves Testers</h2>
<nav>
<p>Due to the extensive changes we still have some work remaining and would be happy if you test our current RC versions for Joomla 3 and Joomla 4, which you can find at <a href="https://dev.virtuemart.net/projects/virtuemart/files">dev.virtuemart.net</a></p>

<h2>Next Release</h2>
<p>We will soon provide a new version, even if it is not yet fully perfected for Joomla 4, as we have also made many enhancements for existing VirtueMart stores with Joomla 3.</p>
<h2>When to Update?</h2>
<p>Joomla 3.10 is officially supported until August 17, 2023. So there is no need to rush to update to Joomla 4 immediately. Joomla 4 is still a new software, so we recommend to wait a bit with live store updates until the community has fully tested Joomla 4. New software always tends to have some bugs that need to be discovered and ironed out in the beginning.</p>
<p>Help Joomla 4 and VirtueMart 4 by testing in your test environments.</p>
<p>We expect that late spring 2022 will be a good time to update the first live stores without any problems.</p>";}i:1;O:8:"stdClass":3:{s:4:"link";s:103:"http://virtuemart.net/news/503-release-virtuemart-3-8-8-updated-administrator-interface-template-design";s:5:"title";s:74:"Release VirtueMart 3.8.8 - Updated administrator interface template design";s:11:"description";s:7492:"<p>Here are some words by the leader of VirtueMart (Max Milbers): <em>These are ambivalent times. On one hand life changed completly for most members, on the other hand it offers new opportunities. In my case, I am currently very busy with the lockdown problems. Literally getting a simple screw is suddenly a big time consuming problem. Politics divide people and business. I got indirect questions, asking if VirtueMart is going to take measures concerning it's 'political correct use'. When I joined <em>VirtueMart</em>, my goal was to create a free shop system for the people. VirtueMart is a free Open source system for anyone. No community member can controll, what you sell with it. It is not our responsibility. Personally I believe in the good will of people and that no one should judge about others without walking in their shoes for a while. We, the VirtueMart communtiy, have members all over the world.&nbsp;Let's keep it that way! </em></p>
<p>Now back to VirtueMart. We tried already a year ago to create a new admin template. This time our team member Valerie Isaksen of alatak.net broke through the obstacles and lightend a new fire for the new administrator template. The old template will be later merged into the new template and provided as style, or theme (it won't be exactly the same). The new admin template is currently provided as backend template. Updaters should use our <strong>package</strong>&nbsp;(use the big blue download button) to get the new admin template. You can just install the package over your current installation. It ensures that you get also the latest tcpdf and vmbeez. But you can also extract it and install the vmadmin.zip. This way ensures that the changes in the backend template do not interfere any productive installation.</p>
<h2>Updated administrator interface template design</h2>
<p>A new administrator template is available for testing which improves mobile and desktop appearance and usability for shop administrators.</p>
<p>Modern icons are used to represent key features and give the interface a cleaner appearance.</p>
<p>Feedback tells us that the rich core features and configuration flexibility remain a core aspect of why VirtueMart is a great choice for Joomla ecommerce.</p>
<p>This is therefore a template UI update and not a complete redesign of administration pages. Shop owners will still find their business information and configurations in the same place.</p>
<p>A small number of configuration screens have had their look slightly modified using icons and give a more consistent alignment of features/fieldnames with input/selection.</p>

It took a while to reproduce it, because it was caused by the manufactuer dropdown, which is not always activated. The problem itself was easy to fix, although the value was whitelisted everywhere else, it was missing for the manufacturer drop-down list.</p>
<p>Since the previous release some features got added. The long desired multicart system got implemented. Multicart means for a multi-vendor shop, that there is an extra cart for each vendor. So when a customer buys products from different vendors he needs to do a checkout for every vendor. This system is very interesting for real marketplaces, which offer products of different vendors.</p>
<p>Another nice new feature are payment/shipment restrictions by coupons. This can be used to offer customers other payment methods over the phone, such as bank transfer for example. Or it can be used for marketing campaigns like "use this coupon to get free shipment".</p>
<p>The textinput plugin can now be used for mandatory text, as we have introduced a required characters check.&nbsp;iStraxx contributed the toggleCartButton.js with MIT license for the required characters check.</p>
<p>StAn of RuposTel has provided a useful overhaul of the VirtueMart recaptcha system. It now works according to the new Joomla standards and works with any joomla captcha plugin. Read more about this on <a href="http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/administration-configuration-vm-2/243-new-captcha-system-in-virtuemart-3-8-6.html">docs.virtuemart.net</a></p>

It was planned as simple version with an optimisation boost and bugfixes for VM 3.6.10, but it became a lot more than that. Many people are affected by a corona stasis. One of our members had to go in quarantine (without being infected) where he had a lot of time tor develop and donate smaller enhancements. Personally, I had been preparing for coming restrictions since the end of February since it was clear that Germany will follow the other countries. My wife and I are now taking care of our children's homework and home-education, which are aged from 3 to 11 and my development time is severely impacted. On the other hand this period allowed to really hard-cook this version in the debug process. It is already in use on some live shops for at least the past 2 weeks now.</p>

<p>The biggest change under the hood are the new optimizations that avoid massive sql requests and use booleans to decide whether we need to load data from an xref table. The technique has some implications, which are described on docs.virtuemart.net <a href="http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/development/241-reduced-database-access-by-using-booleans-for-reference-tables.html.">http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/development/241-reduced-database-access-by-using-booleans-for-reference-tables.html.</a> When I worked on that pattern for categories, I noticed that we can enhance the loading of a category tree in a similar way. Rough tests with more than 200 categories (organised as years) indicate a 5 times faster loading time.</p>
<p>The customfield_value created a permanent performance bottleneck. VirtueMart now creates database keys shortened to the first 50 values, which is a reasonable compromise between using a customfield_value as a simple information value and using it as a searchable value.</p>
<p>The VirtueMart native Language Switcher, which is currently part of the VirtueMart membership <a href="https://extensions.virtuemart.net/support-updates/virtuemart-membership">https://extensions.virtuemart.net/support-updates/virtuemart-membership</a>, now works more more reliable after some really hard work on the router. The new language switcher creates any SEF Urls for different languages. This means it can switch between product details or just the account maintenance - of course without landing on the homepage. Maybe not that interesting for shoppers, but of importance for administrators. <a href="https://extensions.virtuemart.net/support-updates/virtuemart-membership"> </a><a href="https://extensions.virtuemart.net/support-updates/virtuemart-membership">https://extensions.virtuemart.net/support-updates/virtuemart-membership</a>.</p>
