Apple Zen Support Thread

You probably need to adjust the number 9em, in the stylesheet.css, for the body tag for the site-bg.gif background image. It probably needs to be 8em.

Got it in one!!

You rock

I'm using Apple with 1.3.8a and love it!!!! Thank you, you really helped me save face with my mother-in-law....

1. The categories that appear above the tabs, where do I change the font size in the style sheet? OR,

2. how do I get it into a side box if I prefer to have them listed?

3. I made a mistake and saved over my style sheet after making some changes and can't for the life of me figure out why the top of the page, where the shopping cart link appears, is now with a white background. can not see where this is set.

can't edit above post.....found how to turn off the tabs in admin>catalogue>layout

REally prefer to make them smaller font and still need to know what the top nav is white.

I need help so I can get this up and running. Have solved some concerns but still need to know:


The thick gray line that moves behind the center box along with the diagonal lines-image. I have changed the colors of content_bg and content_bg and if these are the images producing that line, it has not changed from gray.

1. How do I get rid of it if I can't change it...do I want to get rid of it? Does it hold a future menu?

2. I've looked with WinMerge at the css and can not see why my side boxes are now transparent instead of the default light gray. The diagonal image shows through the text.

Any help very much appreciated. You can see it here http://www.thethreadedneedle.com/shop/

Your site is blank right now.

1. I can't really tell without seeing the site, if you are referring to the grey outside of the drop down menu's, that color is defined in #dropMenuWrapper in the stylesheet.css.

2. That gray is controlled by an image, that image is:
includes/templates/apple_zen/images/content_bg.gif

Make sure it is uploaded correctly, and that your stylesheet has this:

#centerColumnWrapper2 {
background:url(../images/content_bg.gif) repeat-y 80% 0;
}

One your site is back up, I can answer the rest of your questions.

The site went blank yesterday after I uploaded the style sheet. I thought it was my browser and I closed down for the day. Don't know what is going on but I can see all the files in the right places. Thank you for this suggestion and the template. I"ll work on this today and report back.
