PurpleShades Support Thread

I think i might be on the right track...

The problem is definitely a modification to the purpleshades files. I self modified the logo, logo background and stylesheet.css to decrease the size of the logo area. If you visit the site in IE you will see that "New products for August" fall out of their box (they do not do this in Firefox). After a period of time and a bit of scrolling up and down (not sure what is the trigger) the top of the shop will jump down around 150px from the top of the browser.

I tried switching back to classic and there are no problems in either browser, ergo, the problems must be in my modifications to the purpleshades stylesheet.css. I tried reducing #tagline height to 111px along with that of #logoWrapper, but the problem still manifests.

So what could I have done that would create the above two problems?

Did you edit out any of the !important entries?

Unfortunately I/we canot make changes to this interactively in the IE environment.

[idcowden]

Nope - the important entries stayed. It was those that I had the original question about (I wanted to change the height of the Nav bar).

I'm having a problem with my category descriptions. When you choose a category or go back to a category from a product description, the description is partially cut off. Then after a few minutes the remainder of the description appears. I'm not sure if it has to do with the template or the way my pages are loading. Can you take a look at it and tell me if there is something I need to alter?

Also, how do I remove the alphabethical search box on the categories pages?


Thanks!

Not sure what you are referring to if it is the truncated description in the product listing pages this is default and only displays about the first 150 characters

Also you have not completely followed the template install instructions for the side box widths admin > config > layout settings left & right box widths I think are to be set to 135px

admin > config > product listing > Include Product Listing Alpha Sorter Dropdown > false

The problem I'm having is the category description, not the product. At the top of the category page I have a description. It doesn't seem to show up until you scroll down then it pops onto the screen. At first you can see just the top part of the words in the first sentence.

Also, how would I change the font size for the links, side box text, etc.?

Thanks!

Post a link directly to a page you are having this problem with and the browser you are seeing this with

[maria_m]

I checked my site on a couple of other computers and the problem is not occuring. It seems to be a problem with the way my pages on loading on my personal computer.

Thanks for the help!

I checked my site on a couple of other computers and the problem is not occuring. It seems to be a problem with the way my pages on loading on my personal computer.

This is why I asked for a link to the page as I was not finding a page that acted like you were stating...

Sorry, can't assist with your PC

I am a horrible browser, I can NEVER find what I am looking for. I hope someone can be patient enough to tell me how to install this new template I just downloaded. I desperately want to get my store up and running, but seem to be hitting one brick wall after another.

Thanks in advance for any help.
