Questions about Avant

Will my site look like the demo?

Yes, if you install the Quickstart package on a new site: it installs Joomla, VirtueMart, the template and the demo content in one go. On an existing site, install the template package and follow the documentation to set up the modules.

Does it work with the free VirtueMart?

Yes. It works with the free VirtueMart 4 and with VirtueMart Pro.

Does it work on Joomla 6?

Not yet. VirtueMart 4 runs on Joomla 4 and Joomla 5 only. VirtueMart 5, which is being built for Joomla 6, has no release date. Avant runs on Joomla 5. Read more about VirtueMart and Joomla 6.
