Find the following code:

function get_navigation_list($category_id) {
global $sess, $mosConfig_live_site;
$db = new ps_DB;

static $i=0;
static $html = "";
$q = "SELECT category_id, category_name,category_parent_id FROM #__{vm}_category, #__{vm}_category_xref WHERE ";
$q .= "#__{vm}_category_xref.category_child_id='$category_id' ";
$q .= "AND #__{vm}_category.category_id='$category_id'";
$db->setQuery($q); $db->query();
$db->next_record();
if ($db->f("category_parent_id")) {
$link = "url($_SERVER[’PHP_SELF’] . “?page=shop.browse&category_id=$category_id”);
$link .= “\”>”;
$link .= $db->f(”category_name”);
$link .= ““;
$category_list[$i++] = ” “.$this->pathway_separator().” “. $link;
$this->get_navigation_list($db->f(”category_parent_id”));
}
else {
$link = “url($_SERVER[’PHP_SELF’] . “?page=shop.browse&category_id=$category_id”);
$link .= “\”>”;
$link .= $db->f(”category_name”);
$link .= ““;
$category_list[$i++] = $link;

}
while (list(, $value) = each($category_list)) {
$html .= $value;
}

return $html;
}

and replace with:

function get_navigation_list($category_id, $pd = 0) {
global $sess, $mosConfig_live_site;
$db = new ps_DB;

static $i=0;
static $html = "";
$q = "SELECT category_id, category_name,category_parent_id FROM #__{vm}_category, #__{vm}_category_xref WHERE ";
$q .= "#__{vm}_category_xref.category_child_id='$category_id' ";
$q .= "AND #__{vm}_category.category_id='$category_id'";
$db->setQuery($q); $db->query();
$db->next_record();
if (($db->f("category_parent_id")) && ($i == 0) && ($pd == 0)) {
$link .= $db->f("category_name");
$category_list[$i++] = " ".$this->pathway_separator()." ". $link;
$this->get_navigation_list($db->f("category_parent_id"));
}
elseif ($db->f("category_parent_id")) {
$link = "url($_SERVER[’PHP_SELF’] . “?page=shop.browse&category_id=$category_id”);
$link .= “\”>”;
$link .= $db->f(”category_name”);
$link .= ““;
$category_list[$i++] = ” “.$this->pathway_separator().” “. $link;
$this->get_navigation_list($db->f(”category_parent_id”));
}
elseif (($i == 0) && ($pd == 0)) {
$link .= $db->f(”category_name”);
$category_list[$i++] = $link;
}
else {
$link = “url($_SERVER[’PHP_SELF’] . “?page=shop.browse&category_id=$category_id”);
$link .= “\”>”;
$link .= $db->f(”category_name”);
$link .= ““;
$category_list[$i++] = $link;

}
while (list(, $value) = each($category_list)) {
$html .= $value;
}

return $html;
}

Now after replacing the code with that there are two more files that need to be edited. Search for the next file: /administrator/components/com_virtuemart/html/shop.product_details.php

Fine the following line of code:

$navigation_pathway .= $ps_product_category->get_navigation_list($category_id);
$navigation_pathway .= " ".$ps_product_category->pathway_separator()." ". $product_name;

and replace with:

$navigation_pathway .= $ps_product_category->get_navigation_list($category_id, 1);
$navigation_pathway .= " ".$ps_product_category->pathway_separator()." ". $product_name;

And after that we have one last file to edit…almost done.

Open /includes/pathway.php

Find the following line of code:

// if it is the current page, then display a non hyperlink
if ($item->id == $Itemid || empty( $mid ) || empty($item->link)) {
$newlink = " $itemname";

and replace with:

// if it is the current page, then display a non hyperlink
if (($item->id == $Itemid && !$mainframe->getCustomPathWay()) || empty( $mid ) || empty($item->link)) {
$newlink = " $itemname";

Now you have edited 3 different files. Make sure you save your files as well that you also backed up your files. Now upload these to the server over top of the original files and you will now have working pathways for your shop.

Update:
And lastly open up all the templates located in /administrator/components/com_virtuemart/html/templates and delete the following code from all of your templates: {navigation_pathway} and this will conclude your pathway issues to make them just like ours.

Enjoy!
