Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

[rebelman]

Just have a general question. I am using this great Template, however would like to redesign the Category sidebox (the other sideboxes can remain the same).
I downloaded the Category Dressing add-on however it didn't make any difference i.e. the sidebox-top & sidebox-bottom images still exist etc.

I would greatly appreciate if someone can tell me the best way to get a new category sidebox installed on this template, what files are affected etc?

Thanks a mill

You don't need a new category sidebox. You will need to edit the stylesheet that comes with the module to override the styles in the includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/css/stylesheet.css for the sideboxes.

Ah understood. I will play around with the stylesheet so.
thanks :)

Hi there - I'm having great fun customizing the form to my needs - the last thing I will turn on are the rotating graphics.

I do have a question about the number of footer items that can display under the colums. Can you let me know which files I need to modify to add in more items - seems as though now there can only be 5 items. I am trying to add an item under Cusomter Service right now - I've added in the define for Returns but it doesn't display. I'm assume there is a setting some place that you need to adjust the number of items.

Thanks for any help! Jeff

Hi Anne,

I added my 'Returns' (from the returns authorization module) item to that file under Customer Service and it does not show up. However, if I turn on the Information Box (left side) it shows up there and works just fine.

I've attached the footer_menu_defines.php (renamed with .doc to upload). Can you tell me what I'm missing?

Thanks!

Jeff

Hi Anne,

I was wondering if you got my last reply regarding the footer area - I had modified the file that you suggested before emailing you about the problem and still no additions to the footer. I also include the file attached to my previous email back to you. Could you take a look at it and let me know what I need to change? I really appreciate it.

Thanks - Jeff

Hi Anne,

I have modified that exact file in the path that you stated. Would you mind looking at my code. I added one item under Customer Serviced called Returns.

Thanks - Jeff

I would recommend posting to the support thread for the Footer Menu module.

Hi Anne,

Can you tell me if my code is correct for the Returns? Should it matter which category I put additional options under?
