    Default Problems with product text

    When I switch templates from classic to one of the custom templates that I downloaded from this site I lose the text on the products. The rest of the text is intact. It's just the product description text that does not display.

    Anyone have an idea of what's going on?

    Which version of Zen Cart? Which custom template? Which browser? Do you have a link to the site?

    I'm using version 1.3.0.1 and the start red shade classic template by Kobra. I downloaded the template from this site.

    Here's the link to my site http://sys-code.com/store/

    The product text displays fine when I switch the template back to the stock--Classic template. I really like the red template so hopefully there is a way to get the product decription text to display.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers!

    The problem is that your text is white on a white background.

    Go to your stylesheet and change the value highlighted below to #000000
    body {
    margin: 0;
    font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 62.5%;
    color: #FFFFFF;
    background-color: #e5edf5;
    }

    Find this in the stylesheet.css file
    Code:
    body {
        margin: 0;
    	font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
    	font-size: 62.5%;
    	color: #ffffff;
    	background-color: #e5edf5;
    and change the color
    Code:
    body {
        margin: 0;
    	font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
    	font-size: 62.5%;
    	color: #000000;
    	background-color: #e5edf5;
    Thank you for pointing this out as it is something that I apparently missed.
    You(I) had white text on a white background.

    Kurio: Thanks Mate

    A very frequently asked question. If you do a search on "tagline" in the seach box at the top left of this site, you will find your answer very easily.
