i transferred the old cart to the new cart after installing 1.3.9a. cn i just add the older version of your templates includes to the new site? i want to add your template, then clean everything up. any suggestions. i want to have this ready by dec 1.

I am a little confused by your question, but you should use the new version of the template, it is compatible with 1.3.9 versions as well as 1.5 and has bugfixes included.

Thanks,

Anne

Hi There

Loving this template, got a question on grid lay out.

The grid layout works fine on "new products" etc but I cant workout how to get the products in a category to list in grid view?

I tried installing he SQL patch but get a duplicate error (below) - Not sure what I did.

1062 Duplicate entry 'PRODUCT_LISTING_LAYOUT_STYLE' for key 'unq_config_key_zen'
in:
[INSERT INTO zen_configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, last_modified, date_added, use_function, set_function) VALUES ('Product Listing - Layout Style', 'PRODUCT_LISTING_LAYOUT_STYLE', 'rows', 'Select the layout style:
Each product can be listed in its own row (rows option) or products can be listed in multiple columns per row (columns option)', '8', '40', NULL, now(), NULL, 'zen_cfg_select_option(array("rows", "columns"),');]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.




Thanks in advance.

Did you go to the admin --configuration--product listing and change the rows to columns?

I'm happy that you got it all sorted out!

Thanks,

I just installed the Avonlee template, switched over from the default template and my page is blank. I tried to find an answer to this but I don't see one. I re-installed the template thinking my ftp program may have dropped a file but after the second install the same thing happened. Can you tell me what to look for Anne?

Thanks in advance

edited to add: NM, I figured it out :)

I'm happy that you solved your problem. It would be great if you posted your solution so that anyone in the future who has this same problem can benefit from the answer.

Thanks,

Hi Anne,

I am enjoying the template and finding it very easy to customize. So far the only problem I'm having is changing the product/description hover color. I would like to change it from the red to a different color, but can not find this anywhere in the stylesheets.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi Anne, i've been searching for two hours now but i cannot find an answer to this question: how do i change the background image? not the area within the template, but the grey areas on the sides. i want to put an image in the area and not a color. any help will be appreciated.

Look for this in the stylesheet.css:

body {margin: 0;font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 62.5%;color: #888787;background-color: #f6f4f4;}

Add

background: url(../images/yourimage.gif); to that section.

And upload the image to the /images directory for the template.
