Hi,
not yet. You have to wait few weeks. It''s not so simple as you thought.
They rebuild whole template system.

Hi
I never said that I think it is simple!
I just asked if the template is ready.
Do you tell me when the template is ready?

thanks and regards, florian

When it will be ready. You will see official notice on FB or Blog.
Right now you can remove our "old" override for VM 2.x and use VM 3.x with his default theme.

Probably in January will be available update for this template, which add support for VM3.
If you're still sure this is ideal e-commerce solution for you.

Great thanks a lot!
So the way is to migrate joomla and virtuemart from 2.5 to 3 and then install the new template?
The configuration of the Template will be the same as in the 2.5 version?
Or is it necessary to uninstall the 2.5 template first?

To be honest migration VM may be a way of pain or in most cases can be... I'm not talking about template but component itself.

about general migration please read:
1) https://www.gavick.com/documentation/jo ... joomla-3-3
2) http://www.joomshaper.com/blog/upgrade- ... t-so-scary

Before migration disable all GK plugin - they can crash your back-end.
Remember after Joomla migration re-install : all GK plugins and modules and then template

Those are general tips, sorry but we don't offer migration support or serves.
