Last update of MegaDel II is: 11 Sep 2020. Can you assure me 100% that this template will also be updated for joomla 4 and virtuemart 4? For a quicker alternative, do you have an already downloadable template that supports Joomla 4 and Virtuemart 4? Thank you

I tried to install Tixon template on my MegaDeal II based website, to try to export MegaDeal II setting for import into Tixon, just for a test to see what could happen to the frontend, but I notice that Tixon template hasn't import/export setting option...

Hello, any news about Updating Megadeal II To Joomla 4x And VirtueMart 4x, please? Thanks

Hi

Sorry for your this long wait:(

We are considering EasyStore for our eCommerce templates instead of those third party shop management extensions now. Probably we will think in the same direction about MegaDeal II too. Although there is yet to decide about Helix3-based templates.

You can have a look into this:

Hi, I can consider EasyStore only for new website, not for existing websites made with virtuemart and with hundreds of products. Maybe I can considered amigrationfrom virtuemart to EasyStor only if there was a completely migration tools

Hello,

We are working on it. We might introduce a migration tool but there is no ETA to share. If your site is not large enough, then you can try building it with EasyStore from scratch.

Best Regards

As I wrote, my website made with MedadealII has hundreds of products, I can't built it again. I think it was a good idea for you to update these templates to be compatible with Joomla 4 and Virteumart 4 and PHP 8.x because it more fast than whaiting de production of the import tool. So our customers can continue to use theirs sites for a couple of years more.

Hello, any news about: MedadealII's update? Thanks

I would also like information regarding the update of this model, given the impossibility of moving everything to a new store....I saw that there is only a problem displaying the home page, perhaps modifying a bit of code would work ?

Any news about: MedadealII's update? Thanks

I too would like to know when this will be updated, and I would prefer being able to keep VirtueMart. Thanks!

Hi all,

Please take my sincere apology.

I will ask my team about Megadeal II and will let you know here.

Best Regards

How difficult is it to change the template from Megadeal II to something that is supported going forward?

Hi,

The Megadeal II template will probably upgrade within 2 months from now on.

Best Regards

Hi, I’m Toufiq, the Support Lead at JoomShaper. Rashida is currently on maternity leave. I want to inform you that we don't plan to update this template at this moment. We are working on our own EasyStore e-commerce extension. If you have time, you can check the EasyStore extension details.

Will this include rental functions from virtuemart? Are they supported in easystore?

My client uses megadeal_ii and virtuemart to rent motorcycles. He has the same update problems with megadeal_ii as everybody else.

Will his rental site still work normally after migrating to easystore or can easystore only support selling?

Thanks Toufiq for your time but I don't know what you answered. My question seems to be unrelated:

Does easystore support rental so Joomshaper takes their fair responsibility in this giant problem?

Explanation: Megadeal with virtuemart offered the function to create rental sites. My client bought megadeal and created a rental site. Megadeal_ii support is now being "changed" by Joomshaper from virtuemart to easystore, which is fine IF it supports the same functions as the original product. So, does easystore support rental, without me having to go read links since it's not my responsibility?

Thanks

Sorry, It does not support.

David, I don't know how much of the template-specific VirtueMart stuff is on your site. I didn't have any, I was just using the other Joomshaper elements. It took a little work to switch to a different template (I moved it to Helix Ultimate) and then update everything, but VirtueMart updated and works exactly the same for me on the new template.

I suspect if you used the VirtueMart-specific elements in MegaDeal II your upgrade will take more work to transition those over to some other element that will work.

I too think that Joomshaper should at least continue to support the MegaDeal II-specific VirtueMart elements in the future even if they don't include VirtueMart by default, just to support their customers who relied on their statements that it would be supported. That doesn't seem to be where this is heading, though.

Personally, I think this is a bad business decision for other reasons. Some Joomshaper customers (like me) don't want to be locked into a new custom proprietary e-shop solution that will have us relying on Joomshaper to be on top of security and features (and who might decide not to support it in the future). I prefer an open-source, mature solution like VirtueMart or Hikashop or whatever that has more of a chance of longevity and support. So I am now unlocked from Joomshaper for my ecommerce site.
