Hi Jettrue, I'm back with more questions!

My test site again is at: http://www.enchantingdream.com/enchanting_dream/

I'd like to know how I can remove the search from the main header but keep the blue background bar across the top. I'm not 100% decided on removing the search, so if you could also let me know how to make the search button itself a graphic of my own instead of the generic search button graphic that it is. Actually, I would like to make my own graphic for both the search button on the top bar, and along the right menu if possible.

Also, I'm still unable to center the text headings vertically within the now blue bars on the menus along the right: Bestsellers, Search, etc..

Thanks again for all your help!

Centering the text heading vertically:

h3.leftBoxHeading, h3.rightBoxHeading { font-size:1em; color:#fff; text-transform:uppercase; font-weight:bold; height:1.5em; padding:.5em 0 0 0;
}

I notice you're changing a lot of the em's to px's or font em's to pt's. Which is totally up to you, but changing padding and such to px's kind of messes with the way the template is designed to adjust when someone changes their font size. If you set the padding to pixels, then that will be fixed padding, and it will not adjust when someone adjusts their font size setting. Just a little fyi.


Turn off the top search header in your admin, then in the css add:

height:2.5em;

to the #navMainWrapper, and that should allow your background image to show correctly.

Thanks for the help, I think I am almost there! I thought I wouldn't have a problem with the following, but I do. I'd like to make the "Home and Login"
links in the main header a color other than blue since they're in the blue bar. However, I have links set to blue, so I am not sure how to change just the ones at the top to white.

#navMainLinks a {color:white;}

#navMainLinks a {color:white;}

I was SO close! I did #navMainLinks, but without the "a". Just curious, why did the "a" make all the difference?

Because you already have a color set for all "a"'s (links) for the site:

a:link {color: #176db3; text-decoration:none;}

So by only setting #navMainLinks to white, it was still using the above color for the links. If you had plain text there, then setting #navMainLinks to white would change that plain text to white, but any links would still be set by:

a:link {color: #176db3; text-decoration:none;}

Clear as mud?

Hello guys!

I've uploaded an update to this template. It's mostly cosmetic, so it's not imperative that you install the update. I've made updates to:

1)includes/templates/apple_zen/css/stylesheet.css (small cosmetic tweaks).

2)includes/templates/apple_zen/css/tpl_header.php.

3)There are 4 adjusted images: includes/templates/apple_zen/images/site-bg*.gif. (These images allow you to have the striped image repeat seamlessly down the page)

I'm not sure if this question is something that is related to your template or not, but I would like to have my category menu not have the sub-menus display on the drop down menu.


For Example, if you go to "Themes & Collections" a sub-menu appears that runs far off the page. I would like it to not have the sub-menu appear and just click on "Themes & Collections"

Any idea?

Thanks!

Sure, that's an easy fix... go to includes/classes/categories_ul_generator.php and on line 27 change:

$max_level = 6,

to

$max_level = 1,

To anyone else who is wondering, level 1 means that only your main categories show. Level 2 means you main categories and their subcategories show... level 3, main-sub-sub... and so on.

Now I'd like some help changing the words that appear in a browser's titlebar. Where do I go to do this?
