I can’t even figure out what should be on and off in the standard Joomla confuration page – ie SEF off?</blockquote>

Problem solved
here’s how –
You need to edit the joomla confiuration.php – CHMOD to 755 first
edit your joomla configuration.php and look for var $live_site = ‘ ‘;
in my case, i changed it to var $live_site = ‘http://www.moldavite.me/2009’;
save
CHMOD back to previous setting
For anyone else who is confused – you turn the SEF ‘on’ in the Joomla Config page

So much for that – it did work but you can’t set up an account in Virtuemart and buy something . Because the address in the address bar is wrong. There is an index.php in the middle of the address which I can’t get rid of.

Back to the drawing board!

My site http://integratedlasertherapies.com has been up for a while using the original Zeolite. I’m just starting a new revision using either Zeolite ii, Kyanite ii, or some combination

Nice work – very professional looking and nice customization with the colors.

Ironically, I too am using elements from Zeolite and Kyanite on my latest project – two of my favorite JA templates (to date).

Are you using VirtueMart on your sites? If so, any gotchas I should avoid?

Not sure what you mean by “gotchas.” VirtueMart is an os shopping cart component – so customizing it to your needs (if you should so choose) will involve a bit of research and learning – though completely doable. In my experience, VM is much easier to work with than is Magento – and what VM lacks out-of-the-box compared to Magento, there are MANY developed extensions available to bridge the gap.

Also, there are quite a number of very cool VM theme developers out there who offer stylish Category and Fly Pages (aka: product pages) for VM. One of my favorites is http://www.poweredbyvirtuemart.com

Be sure to check out the VM Extension Directory –> http://extensions.virtuemart.net/
