Module for Joomla and VirtueMart 2.0+ that scrolls your products showing the product's image, name (linked to the product page) and price.

We created VirtueMart scroller for our Joomla/VirtueMart eCommerce template and then decided to share it with Joomla and VirtueMart community. We hope you will find it useful for your online store based on the latest Joomla and VirtueMart. This module used advanced animation effects based on jQuery. You can select one of the 31 available easing types.

If you need to scroll your VirtueMart products, this is a module for you!
