Template Modifying

[outeredge2]

If you mean the Auto Parts Shop image, just create your new image, name it logo.gif, and upload it to includes/templates/theme346/images, overwriting the old one. If you want to use a .jpg image, you'll need to put it in the same folder, then edit includes/languages/english/theme346/header.php.

That was what I had thought of doing, but I had never done that before. I can save my logo as any file type right now so i will just do that and hoepfully it should be good to go!

Thanks

So half of it worked!

First I uploaded my logo as a .gif. That worked but the logo looks like crap!

Then I uploaded it as a .jpg and edited the includes/languages/english/theme346/header.php so that it was looking for a .jpg image. I changed the file permissions, uploaded the file and nothing. It still is looking at the old logo and when I view the page source it is still pointing to the old logo. Any thoughts on why? Should I be editting another file?

The tpl_header.php file has been heavily modified by TM. What does the code look like around the section that generates this output?

						<!-- ========== LOGO ========== -->
							<span><a href="http://www.only240sx.com/index.php?main_page=index"><img src="includes/templates/theme346/images/logo.gif" alt="" width="236" height="39" /></a></span>
						<!-- ========================== -->

Does it call for a constant in the logo display, or something else? Is it the same constant you redefined in header.php?

Call me stupid but I didn't really understand what you just said! Sorry

Look at /includes/templates/theme346/common/tpl_header.php. There will be a section of code between the
<!-- ========== LOGO ========== -->
and
<!-- ========================== -->
comments; post that whole section so we can see what it is trying to do.

Thank you sir! This is the code

<!-- ========== LOGO ========== -->
							<span><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT);?>"><?php echo zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE.'images/logo.gif'); ?></a></span>

The idiots have hard-coded logo.gif into the code, so that nobody can use a different filename for their logo.

<span><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT);?>"><?php echo zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE.'images/logo.gif'); ?></a></span>

The stock tpl_header.php has this:

    <div id="logo"><?php echo '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, HEADER_ALT_TEXT) . '</a>'; ?></div>

Try changing

zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE.'images/logo.gif')

to

zen_image($template->get_template_dir(HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, HEADER_ALT_TEXT)


Make sure you have defined
HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE
and
HEADER_ALT_TEXT

They seem to go to lengths to keep standard ZenCart functions from working....

And why I am fully against them

Just for my 5 cents: there are more than 100 free ZC compliant templates available on this site (Zencart), all of which can be modified to suit your needs.

The worst place to go and get a template is TM! Let alone pay for something that is full of bugs ....

By define do you mean to make sure I change HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE to my image name?

I am beginning to think so to. When I first looked into it it was a mixed bag of results. It was really easy to load and get onto the site (with a few minor changes) and then making other things work seems to be a pain in the ########!
