Html editor only worked once. Now nothing

[TerryW]

I am sorry if this has been addressed but I couldn't find anything.

I am new with Z Cart and just trying to set things up.

I have a G Daddy Host account
Z Cart Ver 1.3.9h (says latest ver)

I have installed a custom template from the Z cart site. The template is Avignon.

I started setting things up and it looked like things were going fine.
I used the ez page editor (html editor) and it seemed to take the changes and delete text as it is intended.

Now when I try to update or change any text it does not work.
It looks like it makes the change and I see no error messages, the changes just don't save.

I have tried other pages and it looks like I can only change things one time and than nothing.

Any suggestions or tips?


thank you very much

Do you mean EZ pages or define pages (or both) ?

If define pages, make sure you're editing the right files. They should be in the includes/languages/english/html_includes/avignon folder.

Thanks for the fast reply.

It seems to be in the define pages editor. I have not created any new pages yet.

I thought the files were set up correctly for editing as I could change them but only one time.

Thanks again.

If it worked once it should work again. Check the files in that folder using your FTP program to make sure the permissions are still set as writeable (at least 644).

Ok, I have narrowed things down. For some reason in the define page editor it defaults back to the original file (D:\Hosting\6772379\html\zencart/includes/languages/english/html_includes/define_main_page.php)

I was able to change templates and edit the main page in a new template but again only one time.

How do I change the text editor to edit the files in the new template without going back to the default pages?

Thank you very much.

If the folder includes/languages/english/html_includes/avignon doesn't exist, you'll need to create it and copy all the define page files into it. Then your define pages editor will default to those files (assuming you've selected that template in admin).

Failing that, a link to your site might help us spot something.

It sounds like you may have edited the default files, then installed your custom template.
