Apple Zen Support Thread

Well I am looking at adding another button on the navagation bar. Like next to the shopping cart button I would like to put a button that I could put a link to another page. I would like this button to link back to the main site which is www.clglampwork.com cause the shopping cart is within the same domain but in its own folder. As for the faq I have the faq module located here http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=329 that I was going to install. I was wondering what i would need to do to have this under the unsubscribe button. I have attached a picture with the spots labeled and circled where I would like to add the buttons. Thank you very much for all the help!

Ok, sorry for the confusion, LOL... You're calling it a "button" and to me, a button is like clicking "Submit Reply" when you finished writing a post. Adding a button to the top menu would require a different method, than just adding a new link to it like you would like to do.

The FAQ button underneath unsubscribe instructions are in my post above.

To add the new link after "Shopping cart" first find this section:

Code:

---

<?php } else { ?>
      <li><a class="noLine" href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?></a></li>
      <?php } ?>

---

Directly after that, just add your new link:

Code:

---

<li><a href="http://www.clglampwork.com/">Name of link here</a></li>

---

Thank you for all of the help. I tried adding the link next to the shopping cart but it shifted down to the next line. I would like it to be located next to the shopping cart link. You can see the shopping cart here www.clglampwork.com/zencart . I realize the text is too long and causing it to go to the next line but I was wondering if you knew of anyway to make it work on that line and fill up the rest of the purple bar. Thanks for all of the help.

Instead of having the link next to the word shopping cart. I was wondering if it was possible to add it to the top bar where the words home and log in are. If possible I would like to add this to the right side or that bar. To clarify I am wondering how to add a link above the logo in the bar. Thank you for you patience and help.

Hi!

You would do that in includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_header.php.

Find

Code:

---

<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT; ?></a></li>
          <?php }?>

---

and add this right after the above:

Code:

---

<li><a href="http://www.clglampwork.com/">Name of link here</a></li>

---

I tried to add the link but it is not showing up. I tried different things to get it to work but it is just not showing up on the site. I am adding the link to the includes/templates/apple_zen/common/tpl_main_page.php I have attached the file for you to double check. Thank you for all of the help. I really appreciate it!!!

Look closer at my example. You put the :

<li><a href="http://www.clglampwork.com/">Main</a></li>

before the

<?php }?>

It needs to go directly after that.

I noticed something that is giving me some trouble to fix. This happens on a fresh installation so I know it isn't something I broke.

I believe it has to do with the ContentMainWrapper. When clicking on certain links like usually product on a page the wrapper appears to go 100&#37; wide before redrawing. This gives the page the appearance of blinking white between clicks but only in the area below the header. Kind of annoying. This is even with a very fast connection (3mb).

I am pretty certain it's a CSS issue... somewhere a div is going 100% wide before being redrawn.

Anyone manage to fix this? I tried to search for a solution, but didn't have any luck.

Thanks.

This is not a default issue:

As far as I can see, it does not occur on my test site, but does on your site. I would investigate into changes you have made?

The issue is because you added your background image to

#mainWrapper


In my original css, I have the background image set to body. If you do the same, your issue will go away:

body {
background:url(../images/site-bg-royal.jpg) 0 0 repeat-x;
}
