various things not working properly after upgrade

[DarkAngel]

http://www.designerperfumesnob.com (live store)

Here is a list of things that are not working right. I have already (3 times now) deleted all 1.5.4 files, reuploaded, manually edited the files for Ceon mod to work...Aside from the old single listing mod, which now does not work, the store files are all there and the template files are all there.

I posted in the templates thread but was told they are not problems in the template demo so now am posting in general population to see if anyone can figure out why they do not work right.

The link leads to the main page, but to actually see some of the things in their non working way you will need to go through the store and try things out, please.


Things not right: 1. About Us page is blank (this is the error in the log):

[23-Jun-2015 17:34:30 America/Chicago] PHP Warning: require(): Filename cannot be empty in includes/templates/custom/templates/tpl_about_us_default.php on line 23
[23-Jun-2015 17:34:30 America/Chicago] PHP Warning: require(): Filename cannot be empty in includes/templates/custom/templates/tpl_about_us_default.php on line 23

line in the file is red:

<div id="aboutUsMainContent" class="content">
<?php
/**
* require the html_define for the about us page
*/
require($define_page);
?>
</div>


2. Designer (manufacturers side box) will only give the drop menu but will not display the names . example shows "Please Select" then everyone shows in drop menu. If set to show 10 names it only shows 1 but no drop menu or scrolling


3. Can not get rid of upper menu. FIXED


4. Add to cart button will not, sends to shopping cart is empty with error: *Warning Please correct the following: .. Quantity Units errors - Valentino VALENTINA ASSOLUTO eau de parfum spray intense 2.7 oz for women Add to Bag:*


5. The product page listings and category pages all have extremely large bounding areas and would like them to be like the size a bit larger than the image.

maybe can fix but it is responsive and I have no experience so would like further assistance. This is not happening with the demo or other stores I have seen with this template


6. There is a line, looks like a horizontal rule, at the bottom of main page images that I can not get rid of, I turned off the new, featured and specials boxes for main page and the line is now visible. FIXED


7. product page bounding boxes are misaligned. probably part of #5 problem, not sure.


thanks to any and all that can help me out

#7 there is an extra closing div somewhere on the page that is closing the centerColumn after the product image, and with the padding and margin on the centerColumn div its pushing down the add to cart box and everything else.

the product image bounding box is controlled with the width setting in stylesheet.css line 461

#pi-left{float:left;margin-bottom:30px;width:45%;background:#f4f4f4;border:1px solid #dbdbce;padding:10px;}

Oh thank you cause when you start dreaming codes for anything that needs to be done in the dream...me thinks you have looked at file codes a bit much...LOL

I shall go take a peek at the stylesheet for that code...and adjust it down some

What file would I go check for the extra <div>?

Hi

#1 Do you have it turned on in admin/define page status? If you try to edit it in the admin can you see it? Is it actually at the desired location:
includes/languages/english/html_includes/yourtemplate/define_about_us.php

Also, when you fix something, please share how so that those of us following along can learn. Thanks

It has never shown up in define page section. I have always had to go to the template folder and edit it there, and it is edited, not blank. To make sure it did not get corrupted on upload I even removed it and uploaded a fresh unaltered copy from the responsive sheffield blue 2.0 template then checked admin...nope still not showing in define pages so manually edited it and it still does not appear when the link is clicked on.

Sorry I did not share how I fixed the items, that was a note to self doc and totally forgot to remove those from the list when I posted here and with the template. As for the horizontal type rule that was showing after turning off the front page sections --- I can't remember but I think it was this:

#tabs.tabs
{
display: none;
}


and the upper menu, the information I got was misguiding cause I did not mention which upper navigation and they thought I meant the "Home" one at the very top, when I meant the ones in the ribbon below the logo--- so that one is not fixed

How about if you go to admin/configuration/define page status? What does it have there? I don't think it will fix the problem but it might make it show up on the admin panel.

When you got your fresh copy from sheffield blue, did it have anything in it? If so, did that show up? When you edited it, did you use a text editor?

If you go to the classic template, does it show up on the admin menu? If so, edit it there and then see if it shows up in the store.

Do you get php errors?

I just saw your php error. What version of php are you using> What version of zencart? What version of sheffield blue?

went to admin/and define page status. It has always been set to "1", but I changed it just now to 0, 2 and 3 and it made no difference.

I was not aware that about us was a zen cart feature...LOL so no I did not but I just did and no it is not showing...also her 1.3.9 template that was the one we used prior to upgrading showed it but now also has gotten anmesia. I also checked in define pages under tools and it does not show up in the list at all in any template, which it never has, that is why I had always had to manually edit it there.

I will try uploading her about_us files again...all of them and then do the edits again. Yes I use a text editor, on my mac which is what I have always used...the mac, but it does not add tidbits like others and word do so it is not the text editor....I will try this again, tis only the 3rd time now...LOL

I posted the error in the primary post:

One last thing (before bed) :)

The variable gets defined in /includes/modules/pages/contact_us

There are 2 files there. Try reloading both from the original template.
