Acadame - Another Professional Template

Take it no one wants to help me, i am using this template, can anyone tell me how to rework the header, rather than have languages and currencies replace language with login and sign out info and where currencies it add something like my delivery notice there.

Attached is two examples of what I am looking for and here is the site i am working on, not live at present, due to header and few issues, www.nowdesire.com

How comfortable are you with coding? What you want to do is going to require you to enter the PHP file and make your changes there.

not that good, but im prepared to learn

Hi,
Im new to Zen cart and this template. When i downloaded it looked quite good on the website, but there is no banner of that laptop as shown on the website.
Can any one help me. Also i dont want the languages and currency boxes on the top- can this be changed with a login logout thing or can i completly remove the grey bar.
Also why dont the side boxes enlarge with the text, say ive writen complete pc systems in one of the categories- it does not enlarge the side box down but it spills out.
Please help!:dontgetit

You need to download the login header mod and then make changes in the tpl_header.php. I dont know how familiar you are with .php and making changes in the files.

This is in the stylesheet, the piece of code you will find here:

#topBarWrap (line 206)
{
background-color: #eeeeee;
background-image: none;
background-repeat: repeat;
background-attachment: scroll;
background-x-position: 0%;
background-y-position: 0%;
}

change the background color #eeeeee to#ffffff

Do you have a link?
I guess you would need to change the width of the sideboxes in Admin/Configuration/Layout settings, in Column Width - Left Boxes change it to for example 180px




Hope this helps.

Hi lucianman,

Well, I can try and help you with moving it or removing it. As for the delivery information, that might be a bit tricky. Is this something that is a standard message? maybe a banner or text? You might be able to do it as a EZPAGE and place the link in the header. That way you wouldn't have to update the code and just do it from admin. If you look at my site, I have navigation that are tabs. I did this with a bit of code changes and using EZPAGES. I have instructions on how to do that somewhere on this forum.

As for the currencies on/off, I went into:

includes/templates/common/tpl_header.php and commented out the currencies and language. I left the shopping cart. I don't know the code for login/log off, but I'm not using that so you might want to find another template that uses it, grab the code for that and paste it in your header. However, whatever you do, back up your files and make a back up copy of your tpl_header.php file JUST IN CASE you mess up. I can't help much more than that.

If you need more, you might want to hire someone to do some of the coding for you. It's your business, and if you aren't good at it, than you don't want to compromise your business. The guy who created this template does offer his services... just click on his banner at the footer.

Thanks alot Kruna, i really appreciate the help.
Take a look at my site- http://dhattgroup.co.nz/dtech/store/
Its just about matching to this Acadame home page - http://www.ichoze.net/Academe/
Just banner 3 flows out a bit, i think its because of the "Home" text under banner 1, would anyone know which file i have to edit to remove this.

Hi Jaskarn,

you are welcome and congrats to you...

You need to enter admin/configuration/layout settings
look for define breadcrumb status and set it on 2

kruna

Try that ... edit the existing class in your stylesheet! You may also need to edit the right padding ... ie padding: top right bottom left <~format ...

Hi, can anyone help me please. I am trying to remove the currencys and languages box and only keep the shopping cart. I tried the above code in the style sheet but it goes to the right- if i change float: to center it goes back to the left. What is the correct code and what do have to do for this.

Also does anybody know the login logout script so that customers can easily login from the top box.

Jaskarn,

where do you want to have the cart? Left, right, center?
