More about Captiva

Captiva is a classic VirtueMart store layout. A teapot and an Order Now button fill the opening slide, and an offer-of-the-week row below it shows a phone, a book, a camera and a card. The mix of products shows how it handles a varied catalogue.

Captiva runs on Joomla 5 with VirtueMart 4.8. VirtueMart doesn't run on Joomla 6, so neither does this template.

  • VirtueMart shop, product and cart layouts styled to match the design.
  • Six ready-made colour styles you switch between in the template settings.
  • Colour pickers in the template settings, if you want your own scheme.
  • 57 module positions, so you can put modules where you need them.
  • A slideshow you fill with your own images and captions.
  • Links for 13 social networks, including X, Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube.
  • A favicon tool in the template settings.
  • A tab for your own header and footer code.
  • The Photoshop file from the original design.

Questions.

Will my site look like the demo?

Yes, if you start a new site with the Quickstart. It installs Joomla, VirtueMart, the template and the demo content in one go. Then you swap in your own words and pictures. On a site you already have, install the template package and set up the modules using the documentation.

Does it work on Joomla 6?

No. VirtueMart 4 doesn't run on Joomla 6, so Captiva is a Joomla 5 template.

What happens after 3 months?

The template keeps working on your site. Your downloads, updates and support stop. To get them back, renew from your account. Nothing renews by itself.

How many sites can I use it on?

One. For another site, buy it again, or look at the Template Club.

How do I pay?

With PayPal. The price is in US dollars. Your download is ready as soon as the payment clears.

Can I ask something first?

Yes. Contact support with any question.
