Apple Zen Support Thread

[algirard8]

All I can say is that this template is amazing! I am having a problem with a product page of mine that is shifting down in IE6. I used the help in this thread to fix the problem of the info shifting down like the create account page but now a different page is doing it. I am using zen cart 1.3.7 and the latest version of apple zen. The problem page in IE6 is http://www.clglampwork.com/zencart/i...=index&cPath=2 but it works fine in IE7 and FireFox. Thank you for any help in advance!

I think its because of the long line in the sidebox: Blue/Turquoise/Aqua (10)

In Firefox and IE7, that hangs of the side of the page, and doesn't increase the width of the sidebox, while in IE6, the sidebox is expanding to contain it, therefore there isn't enough room for the center content (so it shifts down).

My advice is to either find a way to shorten that category name, or tell me you don't want to do that, and you'll have to expand the sidebox in all browsers to avoid that issue. Removing the lines before the subcategories may help as well.

Hello All!

I've updated this mod to version 1.8. This version adds some code to additions_to_.htaccess, some changes to includes/templates/apple_zen/css/stylesheet_header_menu.css, and changes to includes/templates/apple_zen/css/stylesheet.css.

This version is kind of rewrite for form issues so that there are fewer problems between browsers. I've cleaned up the form css as well, I was over-styling things a bit there.

Well I can shorten it but how long can it be do you think. I also had some other questions. In the apple zen demonstration site there are buttons for checkout and shipping estimator while it is only text in mine. I was wondering how to change those to buttons. Also In the shipping estimator box I would like to move the update button to underneath the zip code box. Thank you for all the help. I'm slowly learning everything!

I would just keep testing till the issue went away. You can also remove the lines before the subcategories in your admin under "Configuration", "Layout Settings':
Categories Separator between the Category Name and Sub Categories

Are these buttons in these folder?

/includes/templates/apple_zen/buttons/english/button_shipping_estimator.gif
/includes/templates/apple_zen/buttons/english/button_checkout.gif

As far as the shipping estimator issue, I think you'd need to address that in includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_shipping_estimator.php

Though I'm not positive, and not in the position to verify that at the moment.

Yes all of the button files are in the correct place on the website but they are still showing up as just text links. The link here http://www.clglampwork.com/zencart//..._estimator.gif proves that the button is on the site. Is there a setting somewhere that is set to only show text links and not button links or something.

Sorry for all of the questions but I am trying to learn all that I can. I changed the categories to products in the css navigation menu but it did not change it in the categories side box. I was wondering how to change that. Thanks

Ok I figured out the buttons. There was a setting in the admin under layout setting for css buttons instead of the picture buttons. I just set that to off. So all that I have left is fixing the Categories side box title to products. Thank you!!!

Hi!

The Categories will be in a language file. Do a search in your "Tools", "Developer's Tool Kit" for "Categories". You can restrict it to search only language files, and that will tell you right where you need to go.

You can also help your long category name issue by decreasing the padding, you can change #categoriesContent to this;


#categoriesContent {
text-align:left;
padding-left:8px;
}

Thank you for all of the help!!! I have just a few more questions. I was thinking of adding a button to the drop down menu but i wasn't sure what to add to make it work. I know its in the tpl_drop_menu.php. Also I would like to be able to display the model number in the shopping cart. Thank you again for this great template and all of the help!!!

Q. How do I Create an 'About Us' page?
