I am running Virtuemart 1.1.9 & Joomla 1.5.25.
When users click on register, they are only prompted for Name, Username, email, password, verify password. What do I have to change to get a registration page similar to this??
My site is ssgiorder.com.
AHIA,
LarryR.....
From the VM admin,you can configure the custom fields, and whether or not they appear, as well as whether or not they are required.
The issue was that the Home menu option permissions was set to Registered. Once this was changed back to Public, it worked correctly....

I am trying to access my localhost version of the Joomla Administrator, however each time I navigate to the administrator directory, my Joomla website index page loads instead?
I suspect the htaccess file may be the issue but not 100%?
Any ideas?
Cheers
Ok seeing as you have some protection plugin which re-directs the user from the admin panel if they try and access the page, you won't be able to to either.
And seeing as you can't login to disable it, you will have to do it manually via PhpMyAdmin. Follow these instructions:
Enter PhpMyAdmin
Open the table called jos_extensions (jos is the prefix which may be different for you)
Find the protection extension you have installed which is causing the redirect and go to edit it.
You will find a column called enabled. You need to change the value from 1 to 0
You should then be able to login to the Joomla admin panel
Hope this helps
My client has Joomla! ver 1.5.14 installed on the remote server. I logged in using the url /administrator/ with login 'admin'. When landed on the admin page after successful login, I observed that the top menu has only two elements, Site and Help. All other elements like Menus, Content, Components, Extensions etc are not there.
Also I do not find any way to access those elements (menus, components). There are not icons on the screen to access them.
Could someone please help me figure out this issue?
Thanks in advance

EDIT:
Following is the screenshot of the admin page

user admin belogs to the group 'Super Administrator'
Thank you
It's very strange that this should happen unless your client has been fiddling with the core Joomla files or database tables.
Update the site to the latest version of the 1.5 series (1.5.26)
Download the full Joomla package, extract the administrator, components, includes, libraries, modules and plugins folder, zip them up and upload to the server, replacing the current folder. Not to worry, this will only override the core files which I assume haven't been edited.
Try downloading and installing another admin template.
Else the only other thing I can think of is reconstructing the website which might take a while, depending on the amount of work that went into it.
In Joomla! 1.5.x a common security step was to create an alternate "super user" and downgrade the default admin account to a standard registered. Due to issues in early versions of 1.5 though it wasn't recommended to delete or disable this account.
This sounds like what is going on with your admin account.
You can check this by looking at the database checking the table jos_users look for the username admin and see what it's usertype is set to. At the same time look for a user that has an usertype of Super Administrator (yes, really the words Super Administrator).
Once you have the username of the Super Administrator, you will need to find the password. If the client doesn't know it then you will have to recover the admin password.
This problem started with me needing to add a module to my frontpage so only guests will see it, after they login the module disappears. So I read this tutorial :
Basically says to do this..
Create a Guest Group in the User Manager
Add a new Guest Viewing Access Level
Change the default guest group in the User Manager options
And it works! But the problem now is when I login with my administrator account on admin panel, i get only 3 icons from Zoo component, no admin bar menu, nothing! And if try to login to the admin panel with a default user account I get the same thing! I´m now in the joomla database to try and see if I can delete the user group I created before and maybe it works?
I cannot lose the content of the website, it´s important! Please help. I´m the latest version of joomla.
Thanks very much
Backup your files and database and set your website in offline mode: edit your configuration.php file and set:
public $offline = '1';
After that, you can try your solution.
I am running Joomla! version 1.7. I've set up a registration page in the menu manager, however, when I click the link, it says I need to be logged in to register.
Not sure what I going. Can anyone help please?
Thanks!
Check the access level of that menu link.
It should be public. But you have set something else.
Turns out registration was disabled in the user manager settings.
I want to create a custom Joomla registration form and a profile to show the information saved. For this I followed the answer on this thread. I have cloned and changed the files of the user profile plugin. Now the problem is that the edited profile form is not displayed after I have enabled the plugin. I have a login link on my site, which on success redirects to a profile display page after that. When I click edit on the profile display page, the edit profile form is still the same old one and it is located at profile?layout=edit. All it has is:
Name
Username
Password
Confirm Password
Email
Confirm Email
Basic Settings
Why is this not working. The installation was also fine.
Is this even the right way of doing this.
Please help with this. I appreciate all the help. Thanks!

I ended up going with Community Builder. It has amazing search features.
