The reset button is handy for bringing up the layout boxes quickly as per the layout for the demo database, but there's also a download available here, that lets you replace the default layout setting with your personally preferred layout.:thumbsup:

KEWL!! That will be a handy tool for testing out new templates and deciding which I like best without the headache of turning stuff on and deciding where I want it. THANKS!
Thanks!! I just found that as you posted it! The support is wonderful for a newbie like me!:D
Hi ideasgirl:
I installed the template and the only problem I am having is on a page with more than one product listing the images run over each other. This link:
My Store shows the problem.
Also the words Product Image run over the bar. I am sure I have done something stupid when I reset sizes or something. Are my images simply too long? Should I tighten them up?
Thanks, Jill
Nothing stupid that you have done.
Your images just need a bit of padding, go to your css and find:
change it to:Code:a img {border: none}
or replace 3px with your preference.Code:a img {
border: none;
padding: 3px;
}
The heading is doing that since the new template system is tableless and the columns will grow depending on what is in them. You have 2 options:
1-go to your language folder and change "Product Image" for "Image" (includes/language/english/index.php)***, or
2-go to admin panel > configuration > images... and change the max width of your small images.
***please use override system: copy that file into your includes/language/english/sophyblue/ folder (create one if you don't have it).
Hi there and congratulations with the template... It looks great, and possibly just what ive been looking for to use for our new website.
I would like to ask a few questions about Zencart in general, and also on this template.
Firstly, here is a LINK to the instalation I have done on our original domain, along with the subtle but effective mods I have added (For now) :lamo:
As you can see... to the left of the page... there is a much wider space than on the right. How do I fix this as Ive tried everything now but dont seem to be getting anywhere.
Another thing... the txt to the top of the page: "Sophy Blue Free Template".. Will this be removed upon taking action on this-->> "If you wish to remove advertising or design credit" blag blah... :laugh: ??? If so, Id be more than happy to do so but first id liek confirmation. :wink2:
Another problem im having is... where are the "add to cart" buttons?.. I have added an item just to see how things work... but when I select the product.. there is no way of purchasing it :blink: .. Ive also tried to register as a web browser but still no way of buying
Ok... last thing now (Sorry to go on and on)... I changed the background to something a bit more "me" (White to light blue/ Left to right), but around the sidebox's there are still traces of the original background. I done my stuff in Photoshop/ fireworks, but never quite got it right .. Any sugestions?
Thanks, and sorry to keep you so busy with all these questions.
Tom
That's because your tagline is being pushed by your header/logo. Just go to includes/languages/english/sophyblue/header.php and around line 22 you will see:Quote:
As you can see... to the left of the page... there is a much wider space than on the right. How do I fix this as Ive tried everything now but dont seem to be getting anywhere.
just change it to:Code:define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', '<h1>Sophy Blue Free Template</h1>');
Code:define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', '');
No, that's just the tagline (as my previous explanation states).Quote:

Apparently you solved this. Maybe you were using showcase cart?Code:Another problem im having is... where are the "add to cart" buttons?..
If you have the number of color of background I can redo those boxes for you and send, just send the color details (or background) to my email.Quote:

Now heres what ive got: NEW PROBLEM - Yes, its all alligned now (Left and right columns), but if you look at the header and the two columns, they are slightly all over the place (If that makes sense) :P
Anyway, I shall email those boxes to you later today with the colour I need them to be in the hope you can help me out.
I would also like to ask if theres anyway I can use a decent txt editor to add details about my products as when I added the info (There is a lot of info for each product)- It all appears in one big bulk load of txt with no BOLD, or spacing/ paragraphs etc. Also, I need to be able to add more images to each item (Screenshots, etc, etc).... Am I able to do this somehow?
If you look HERE you will see all I have been able to add to this item on Zencart due to the problem I have mentioned... and if you look HERE you will see what I need to be able to add to each item.
Thanks again for your help.. greatly appreciated.

Around line 266 you'll find:Quote:

change to:Code:.headerNavigation {
background-image: url(../images/bar2.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
font-weight: bold;
height: 29px;
color: #445A6A;
vertical-align: middle;
padding-left: 3px;
}
This is going to change soon since the header code changed for 1.3.5 and the template has to be updated (but won't harm for now).Code:.headerNavigation {
background-image: url(../images/bar2.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
width: 750px;
font-weight: bold;
height: 29px;
color: #445A6A;
vertical-align: middle;
padding-left: 3px;
}

you can also download 2 others available in the downloads area. (FCK Editor and Tiny).
Your second link is dead. :dontgetit
You can add a weblink when entering a product from admin.
If you think you will need to add lots of info to your description, plus pictures, plus cross sell, etc. I suggest you to considerate installing Tabbed Lite Module.
That's a VERY strong yellow. :blink:
Apologies... the second link was supposed to point HERE
Now then... this new info you have given me to sort out the alignment... what document do I have to edit?... You have told me what line its on.. but I cant find it on any of the php pages I have from the template. :lamo:
BTW.. Yes.. the Yelow/ Orange is VERY bright indeed... I like it with the Blue though.. its errm.. Different? :P
What do you mean here?... That maybe I will have to change this template again sometime in the future?... Could it stop working or something or have I picked you up wrong?... Sorry, I dont know nothing about php :laugh:Quote:

Thanks again, and really good stuff with the image editing.. thanks a bunch ;)
