Footer Menu Support Thread

[clydejones]

Would it be possibel to ONLY have the EZPAGE links shown in the 4th column ( important links )
And not also underneath the footerlinks in a horizontal footerbar
as you can see here: http://www.fritenglas.eu/new/index.p...id=4&chapter=1

And would it be possibel to make teh lines between each column longer ( as long as column 4 )

Thank you
Christina

By default this mod replaces tpl_footer.php which should have eliminated the issue you describe.

[FenG]

but it has not eliminated the problem, what can I do to have it deleted from the footer?

What should I look for?

Thank you

I would need to see the tpl_footer.php file you have installed in order to determine what the problem is.

You need to remove the following:

<div id="navSupp">
<ul>
<br />
<br />
<br />

<?php if (EZPAGES_STATUS_FOOTER == '1' or (EZPAGES_STATUS_FOOTER == '2' and (strstr(EXCLUDE_ADMIN_IP_FOR_MAINTENANCE, $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])))) { ?>
<li><?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_ezpages_bar_footer.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_ezpages_bar_footer.php'); ?></li>
<?php } ?>
</ul>
</div>
</div>

Alright I've installed the footer menu mod. Looks great but no matter what I do a cannot change the styling of the links (i.e remove underline, remove bold, change font type) no matter where I change nothing seems to take effect.

Please review the site at www.megasaveonline.com. What am I doing wrong.

open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet_footer_menu.css

find the following section and make whatever changes you require.

#footer ul {margin:0;padding:0;list-style: none;}

#footer li a:link {color: #444;font-size:11px;margin:0;padding-left:1em;padding-bottom:.3em;line-height:14px;display:block;}
#footer li a:visited {color: #444;font-size:11px;margin:0;padding-left:1em;padding-bottom:.3em;line-height:14px;display:block;}
#footer li a:hover {color:#f27a00;background:none;text-decoration: underline;}
#footer li a:active {color: #444;font-size:11px;margin:0;padding-left:1em;padding-bottom:.3em;line-height:14px;display:block;}

Clyde, hi again.

Trying to install Footer Menu on your zencart_zen template. Test site:

http://www.prom-mart.com/index.php?main_page=contact_us

Several issues:

1. Text in coluns seems mis-aligned, as if trying to align center (not for categories, though). See "Important Links", "Best Sellers", "Information" boxes.

2. For some reason, Contact Us is missing the red asterisk.

3. How might I align links in footer to align left rather than center?

4. Site would probably look a little better with a small margin at bottom, as in zencart_zen on main site as yet without footer menu:

http://www.prommart.com/index.php?main_page=contact_us

Cannot bear right now to wade through new thread, so if you have any thoughts specific to your template, thanks.

SPH

PS: I did just install the css/js minifer on test site (which does speed it up, although your template does very good out of the box.) Not sure if that affects above issues.

Okay, going through thread, above fix seems to have fixed my upper sidebox issues. And also put a small margin at bottom of page. And took out the yellowish/gold hover in links not only in footer but in other places in site.

Now, have I yet come across how some have their links left aligned rather than center aligned?

Just noticed: still have missing red asterisks Contact Us:

As for the sideboxes - zencart_zen doesn't modify any of them except for the categories.
You'll need to look at each of the sidebox templates and determine if they contain a class="centeredContent" element and delete that if you want them to be left aligned.

I believe there is a fix for the asterisks in the support thread for zencart_zen
