Slider not working on added template

[ShauntN]

Hello all,

I am having problems trying to get the slider on my site to work. When i switch the template to another design, it seems to work fine. But i'm either having image link problems or the script is totally non functional.

Please check out the site and tell me whats going on...

There is no reference to your images

From your page
<div class="slides">
<!-- BOF- BANNER #2 display -->
<!-- EOF- BANNER #2 display -->
<!-- BOF- BANNER #3 display -->
<!-- EOF- BANNER #3 display -->
<!-- BOF- BANNER #4 display -->
<!-- EOF- BANNER #4 display -->
<!-- BOF- BANNER #4 display -->
<!-- EOF- BANNER #4 display -->
</div>

How about putting your images in there, like

<ul>
<li><img src="images/01.jpg" alt="" /></li>
<li><img src="images/02.jpg" alt="" /></li>
<li><img src="images/03.jpg" alt="" /></li>
<li><img src="images/04.jpg" alt="" /></li>
<li><img src="images/05.jpg" alt="" /></li>
</ul>

Compare the file on the working template, and do the same in this one.

i put the images in there like 01.jpg and so on...

It's not connecting

i think it's a scripting issue but i don't know where to look

Thank you once again

I'm using this same template on my secondary site here:

http://www.fashion-mart.biz/

The slider uses your banners. I have three banners rotating: header1, header2 and header3...just one banner/pic each. Haven't yet tried anything more involved.

If you loaded the template correctly it should work.

Lightbox - if I turn on Lightbox with this template, then the banner/slider freezes on the first banner when on the product page. It works on category and other pages. Apparently some conflict there. Normally I turn Lightbox off when using this template.

What program did you use to make your logo like the template demo's?

[ShauntN]

It sits in the template folder called logo.psd, its right on the main t

You shouldn't have to do anything re special coding. Just make and turn on your header banners.

In admin/configuration/layout settings I named my three header banners to header1, header2, header3. Then go to admin/tools/banners and make your banners, assigning them to your header1, header2 and header 3. It started working for me.

You can try it by just using the default demo header banners that came with zencart...are they still in your admin? Just set them to the header banners, probably best to practice with the smaller horizontal banners ("if you have to think..." "start accepting credit cards..."

EDIT: I see the site looks complete now, and I see a footer banner. Just turn on a header banner and it should show in slider. That's where the header banners appear.
