Apparently pintrest wants a 200 pixel minimum and the product image in it's non-enlargerd form is only 120 X 120. The imaged show in the pin it window meet that size criteria.
The product image in it's actual size is 500 x 500. Is there a way to make the image large enough in the smaller form?

---

Why don't you just set your product info images at least 200 pixels wide in admin--images?

Thanks,

Anne

I changed the image height and width to 200, just changing the width did not do the trick. The images now show up when the pin it is selected. I did not realize the image size was an option in admin.
Thank you Anne I really appreciate your help.

Yes, the pinterest minimum is 200 x 200 pixels so you do need to change the width and height.

Thanks,

Anne

I have a few questions about this template. I want to know how I would edit the code and which php files do I need to edit to get this:


I want to have the header links not to drop down just to be a straight through link but still have the search area. I also want the footer green and brown to go all the way across to the edge of the page like the header. And finally I would like not to have the homepage slider.

One more thing, on the Sponsors sidebox, are there a way to change the text to be Affiliates instead?

Thank you for your time. Have a great day.

If you want to make these sorts of changes to the template I would recommend leaning how to use the admin--tools--developers toolkit. If you do a search of the FAQs here you will find a tutorial about how to use it if you need additional help.

I would also recommend using firefox and installing firebug if you want to make css changes. Firebug will show you the exact line of the exact file that you need to edit to make changes. You can also try out changes live without changing the css files.



Thanks,

Anne

Having been using this template for some time now I just noticed something.
On any given category page the price column is showing, but no prices are showing.
In Product listing the Display Product Price/Add to Cart is set to 3.
I would like the price to show on this page so customers could see it without clicking on each product.
Shouldn't the price be showing?

If you post a link to the page with the problem I can take a look.

Thanks,

Anne

Thanks, here is an example. It appears this way in any category though.

In your stylesheet.css file line 171 remove .productListing-data from the group of selectors.

Thanks,

Anne

I finally had a chance to try it out, it worked very nicely. I like that layout much better. Thanks Anne and Merry Christmas to you.

I am happy that you figured it out. Have a great New Year!

I realize today as my son tried to browse ffpetsupplies.com with his new nitendo 3ds that our site is not mobile friendly.
The answer is obviously to change to a responsive template. That makes me a bit nervous about what might go wrong in the process, plus I really like the current template. It's perfect for what we sell.
Is there a way to make this site mobile friendly? I was thinking an add-on or some sort of re-direct to a mirror site.

Secondly what is the risk of switching to a responsive template I.E. All Business?
Here is our plug-in list install on zen cart 1.5.0:
Ceon advanced shipper 5.0.2
Easy populate 4.0
HTML editor
Ceon uri mapping

You can start from the Responsive Template Default package and convert it to look like this template. But I will warn you that this is very labor intensive. When I do this, the process takes me literally weeks including testing, etc. You will need strong css, php, and html skills.

Thanks,

Anne

That is way beyond my skill set.
Do you see any major obstacles (add-on modules included) if I were to simply change to a responsive template such as the All Business package?

No, zen cart is set up so that you can install any template that you want and switch between them. As always, if you have installed plugins that have files in the old template override directory, you will need to copy these to the new template override directory.

Thanks,

Anne

That is clearly the better option. It's time to get my feet wet by trying this out anyway.
Thanks much Anne

One of the issues we had when trying a mobile device was broken links for the categories and products page.
I have tested the site for broken links through a pc browser and it comes back clean.
I do have uri mapping installed.

Would be correct to assume that a responsive template won't help with that problem?

I checked ffpetsupplies.com with W3C mobileOK Checker. It found broken links as well.

Would a newer version of zen cart help with the issue?

Is behavior typical of zen cart?

This is not a template related problem. My guess is that it is related to your uri rewriting module. You have probably not copied over the template override files for the modules.

Thanks,

Anne

I'll check the files. You know I don't remember doing that step.
Thanks Anne

Anne I assume you were talking about the template override file included with the mapping module?
I decided (perhaps wrongly) to upgrade the the newer version of uri mapping while I was at it.
Now I am getting a blank white page when using the navigation from the left side box and some of the top links as well.
The mapping shows it was upgraded and does not show any errors with the diagnostic utility.
the site loads fine with the mapping turned off. I have double checked that the files went to the correct directories.
Is there an override switch that has to be turned on?
Do you think uploading my backup files cause it to revert to the former version?
I have posted on the mapping support page as well.

It was the .htaccess file. I copied my backed up file to the root directory and everything works. I need to take baby steps instead of leaping.:blink:

Hello! I love this template! My website was dormant for 4-5 years and I’m trying to get it all going again. I had a database issue that my host repaired. I’m still working on getting my SSL (host sold me one they now say is not compatible with the platform the site is currently on, but that’s another issue). Here’s my file problem: When I click on any of the customer support links, like shipping & returns or contact us, I get a 404 error. I can’t find the file that drives these options. I also updated my contact info in the admin side and it won’t update on the page. Website is: personalizedpetid.com (it’s still giving a security warning since I can’t get my SSL straightened out). I have been away from this for years and I am relearning it all. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
