Lavender Template Support Thread

[cyfarian]

Kobra,
That worked! Thanks so much!! The reason that I had added the height to the navwrapper is because the navwrapper was showing up as a very thin line in firefox. I am sure that it was doing it because of a change I made that I didn't realize. But it is perfect now. Thanks so much!!

This thread has been started to support the "Lavender Template"

This is a two for one template. You will install with this template a soft lavender colored template and an implementation of the Better Categories Module by gilby.
BetterCategories questions probably belong in the respective support thread.

I have a question please:

(first) I love your lavendar template, the coloring section is great.

I am a graphic design and get lost very easy on codes. I know html very well put get a bit lost on CSS. In the top logo (Sample: where it says Printable shop http://printableshop.com/kidscraftsfamilyfun/ )

What file and what codes do I need to find to make the pixel size on that wider. I want to make a large image at the top. The height is fine but I would like to make it longer to show more graphic since I will be selling http://www.momsbreak.com/ downloadable printables and graphics.

Thanks

As currently this is the logo.gif image and cebtered you can just create a larger one and place it in the same folder with the same name.

Just to make sure I understand correctly. The logo.gif right now is 300 x 150 pixels. I can make a logo.gif at 500 x 200 pixels, then upload in the same folder and I don't have to go in anyplace to change the coding numbers 300 to 500 or 150 to 200? Correct?

What "cebtered" - is it a coding word or a typo? I googled it and didn't find a meaning.

Thank you

"cebtered " I re-read this and I have no Idea either???

The width will expand with no issue as long as you do not make it wider than the layout width (and you should consider those that are still viewing at 800X600)
You might possibly have to edit the stylesheet here:

#logoWrapper {
        background-color: #e5d9e5;
        height:150px;
        }

@Kimberl

"cebtered" = "centered"

And in addition to Kobra's advice above, you will need to change your includes/languages/english/lavender/header.php file to reflect your logo's new dimensions.

"cebtered" = "centered"

Kuroi,

Thank You for refreshing this old gray matter!!!!

Yeah that is what I meant....

Hi all! I'm new to Zen and to php. I am really trying to learn. It's hard when you have limited time. Anyhoo, I absolutely adore the lavender template. I just installed zen cart to my site and I am dying to have that beautiful and brilliant template on it. There is just one problem. I am a total moron as I cannot figure out how to install it. I keep going to the tools:template selection and only the green one shows up. I uploaded it into the template section, then reuploaded it to the classic folder but I can't get it to show up. I know there is something that I am not doing but I don't know what it is. If there is a very patient person out there willing to help, I would be forever in their debt. Thank you.

If using FTP just drag & drop the local includes folder with the template to you host panel where you an see the admin & includes folders - not on top of any one but just to the pane. It will move the fies tothe correct locations
