Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

[Kennym]

Hi, I have installed your template and and I have found the answer to my question in post #372. So there you have it, no question from me, just Thank You for the free template it has made my Free Download Store look very neat and tidy.

Instructions were verbose and easy to follow for a novice like me and my update to 1.5.1 was probably worse than setting up the template. I have not noticed anything that needs attention and my visitors are happy with the new look.

Great! I am happy that you found the answer to your question. Best wishes for your site!

Thanks,

I am just finding my way with my first zen cart installation (1.5.1) and think the Aberdeen template is absolutely brilliant! (I downloaded the latest version) Thank you Anne!

I ran into a little problem, my own fault really, I should have read the readme text file all the way through instead of step by step like I was doing.

(I made my slider images too large and for a while there got a bit confused......)

I began reading this thread to see what was going on (I know it was plain common sense that was needed in the end, I should have just read the code for the actual size of the slider first or even just a few lines further in the instructions LOL!) anyway I got up to about page 30 or so in this thread before thinking I should really read on a little more in the text file then I realize there is a minor typo in the text readme file (Probably left over from an update or something.):

A. Create your images for the slideshow. The demo slideshow image dimensions are 740 pixels by 430 pixels.


Hah! if only I bothered to read a few lines further LOL!

default width 700px height 250px

Anyway, rather than read the whole thread to the end just to see if this has been posted, I thought I would save a little time, post it here and offer A GREAT BIG THANK YOU!! to Anne, honestly, reading through this thread made me so angry time and time again.

A person gives up their time and puts in amazing effort to create something of such excellent quality, then gives it away for FREE and then offers support for FREE just to help people and honestly, some people are just plain lazy not to mention rude with their posts. I want, I want, but I just want.............. unbelievable, just PLEASE read the instructions like I didnt.

Anne I have to say your approach to zen cart support in order to support your business is absolutely first class, if anyone is wondering the best way to offer free products and help people (As well as generating interest in their services of course.) Then just look at how Anne has put the time and effort in here to set up, and on top of that, what a lovely lady, so polite and helpful in her posts no matter what the time wasting question may be!

Anne, in my opinion, you have nailed it! Thank you. Thanks to the others involved with this great cart package! & Thanks again!

I will be donating when business begins to flow once more!



Take it easy,

Just for reference, I ended up choosing to use a custom image size, when I checked the css file, the actual size of the slider (As far as I can tell) reads:

width:550px;height:250px

I scanned the rest of the thread and couldn't see it so thought I would post, unless i have missed something (Very possible!) then maybe the readme txt could do with an update next time round?


Anyway,

Thanks again Anne! Your work is very much appreciated.

This template is on my list for a future update. It is hard to say when I will have the time to do the update, but I do have a list of items to be updated on this template.

Thanks,

Anne
