Lite Red and Black Pure templates

[VJef]

Dear Tim,

Thank you for the message.
We update all the files that needs to be updated, so if the file you described contains any major update in new version of Zen Cart, we update the template file either.
As regards the page speed, I've just realized I missed the message with your suggestion. Thank you for that. We believe it is the best suggestion for Zen Cart team either, so they can upgrade the software and increase the page loading speed. As for now, we think it is a major update for the template and it will be much harder to support the template through Zen Cart upgrades. As a solution at the present time it would be a good request for the local modification or customization of Zen Cart for specified client.
Have you tried to post your suggestion regarding the sprite images to Zen Cart team?

I got this error. i am real green when it comes to web devlop.

upon reviewing the source code of your published site it appears that the link to your CSS is broken, specifically this one:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="min/?f=/includes/templates/black_pure_free/css/stylesheet.css,/includes/templates/black_pure_free/css/stylesheet_css_buttons.css&amp;1325247357" />

I do know my Zen Cart is out of date.

Can some one please help

Hi Vjef,
DrByte replied http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.p...67#post1155667 . I have got a sprite file created . I have the location where the CSS needs to be changed if that helps also.

Kind regards
Tim

Thank you for the reply. We would much appreciate if you send us your modifications regarding the sprite idea for the Black Pure Template to the support (@) pixemus.com email. We will review the information and let you know the results later.
As regards the DrByte reply, we can agree partly, but we believe it is a good improvement for shopping cart in overall due to the fact that creation of the sprite system inside the template (not shopping cart) may bring another difficulties during its creation and additional mess though the Zen Cart upgrades. In fact, it is an ideal task for design service maybe for each client who wants to have this modification.
For example, cs-cart use this sprite technology by default inside the software package:
demo.cs-cart.com/professional/skins/basic/customer/images/button_sprite.png
demo.cs-cart.com/professional/skins/basic/customer/images/icons/glyph_icons.png

You should turn off the "Categories-Tabs Menu ON/OFF" parameter in your "Admin - Configuration - Layout Settings" section.

I'm using the lite_grey template on one of my domains and came across a PHP 5.4+ issue. In /includes/templates/lite_grey/templates/tpl_ezpages_bar_header.php, the code currently reads:

if (sizeof($var_linksList) >= 1) { ?>
<div id="navEZPagesTop">
	<ul class="list-style-none">
		<li><?php echo '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">'; ?><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG; ?></a></li>
		<?php for ($i=1, $n=sizeof($var_linksList); $i<=$n; $i++) { ?>
		<li><a href="<?php echo $var_linksList[$i]['link']; ?>"><?php echo $var_linksList[$i]['name']; ?></a><?php/* echo ($i < $n ? EZPAGES_SEPARATOR_HEADER : '') . "\n"; */?></li>
		<?php  } // end FOR loop ?>
	</ul>
</div>

For PHP 5.4 and later, there must be a space after the <?php for it to be successfully parsed:

if (sizeof($var_linksList) >= 1) { ?>
<div id="navEZPagesTop">
	<ul class="list-style-none">
		<li><?php echo '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">'; ?><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG; ?></a></li>
		<?php for ($i=1, $n=sizeof($var_linksList); $i<=$n; $i++) { ?>
		<li><a href="<?php echo $var_linksList[$i]['link']; ?>"><?php echo $var_linksList[$i]['name']; ?></a><?php /* echo ($i < $n ? EZPAGES_SEPARATOR_HEADER : '') . "\n"; */?></li>
		<?php  } // end FOR loop ?>
	</ul>
</div>

Hi Vjef,
I have got a sprite file created. I have the location where the CSS needs to be changed if that helps also.

I'm using the lite_grey template on one of my domains and came across a PHP 5.4+ issue. In /includes/templates/lite_grey/templates/tpl_ezpages_bar_header.php, the code currently reads..

I would like to inform that we have updated our LiteRed and BlackPure Templates. The issue is fixed, background and icons are placed to one sprite image. We have requested the updated to the "Plugins" section of Zen Cart community and they will appear soon there. For now, the updated templates are available on our site for downloading:

All other free templates will be updated soon.
