Simple Zen Template - Support Thread

[muntada]

I have setup EZ Pages up on another site. Works great. I am now setting it up another site and I am having issues. I am not sure if it has something to do with the template or not. I switched back to the classic and it is still not working. Here is the scenario:

1. Template is simple_zen
2. Just trying to create an internal link url (tried also html content) ezpage
3. I checked to use sidebox.
4. I went to layout boxes controller and turned on ezpages.

Am I missing something? Is there a bug? This is a 1.3.7 site with the only thing non-stock is that I added the faq module and customized to use the simple_zen template. There are otherwise no overrides that I have done.

The site is at http://www.muntada.com/

Mutanda / Whoever can help,

I recently made a site with the simple zen template and noticed on your site a similar problem on mine -- which is that on the site map page, all of the links are displayed in a line and not tiered as they should be. How do i/we fix this?

Did you give the page a sort order? Is it not adding a new link (I see one link up there now). There's certainly nothing in the template that would stop an ez-page.

Great template! I like the blue version, but how do I change the color of the links to match? See http://www.cqfiltersales.com. Sorry, I'm not very good at CSS.

Thanks,

You can do a search in the stylesheet for #933. That is the red I used for links. Find those 933's and change them to what you'd like. That will also get you in the areas for links in general, so you can change some of the grey's as well if you like.

I am using the SZ template at 100% and have a large empty space between my logo and the gif links in the header.

I would like the logo and header gifs to be more balanced.

Is there anyway to space out the header gif links more to the left? (move them in more to the center).

I tried increasing the file size of the topnav.gif and in the CSS:
#tagline ul {
height:86px;
margin:0;
width: 336px;

but, can't move it over to the center.

any suggestions?

#tagline is currently floated right, so it is staying to the right. Something like this would work:


#tagline {
float:left;
height:70px;
width:336px;
padding-left:30px;
}

You know, after thinking about this, and seeing the changes, I'd suggest something else.

I would change everything back to the way it was, and change #logoWrapper to this:

#logoWrapper {
	background: url(../images/shadow.gif) repeat-x bottom;
	height:105px;
	width:950px;
	}

This way, when your customers either shrink their browser window, or have a higher resolution or smaller monitor, the image links won't wrap down below the logo. Also remember, it seems that you are using a very wide browser window (from the width of your picture), and not everyone does that. The narrowest I can make the window on your site right now is 1005 wide.
