Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

[susb8383]

Hi,

New ZenCart user here.

I installed the Cherry Zen template and am following instructions in the Read Me Or Else file.

The instructions say "Go to "Configuration" "Product Listing" and change "Product Listing - Layout Style" to "columns". "

However, I do not see the choice "Product Listing - Layout Style" as a choice under Configuration.

Upon more poking around, I found that I need to first install the add-on module for Column Layout / Grid Layout for Products Listing.

So I guess this post is two-part.

1. Maybe the installation instructions for Cherry Zen should say to first install this module.

2. If I'm installing this module after the Cherry Zen installation, should I install everything except product_listing.php, which exists in both Cherry Zen and the Column Layout module?

Thanks.

Thank you, CWCGroup -- I had made a smaller logo and thought I had uploaded, but hadn't. Doh!

I would like to swap the ez page bar and the categories tabs strip under the logo.

Is that possible?

Also, I'd like to create a home page graphic for the center. What size should it be and where/how do I upload such a graphic?

I really like sleepless's Country corner candle site.

Inserting a graphic into the middle is easy. Can be done though the ADMIN.

TOOLS>DEFINE PAGES EDITOR select HTMLarea on the TEXT EDITOR menu then define_main_page.php from the other drop down.

You can then insert a picture from one you've uploaded.

Sort of is a WYSIWYG editor. I stress sort of!

I'm too new to answer your other question. I'm still trying to figure the buzz words out. Looking at your site, you are way ahead of me!

First i have to say i love that template.
it was one of the reasons to decide for zen cart for me.
there is only one small problem left.

www.printer-reset.com

in firefox, opera and IE 7 everything is ok, but in IE 6 the right sideboxes are not in place.
i tried the search function with no luck.
could You please give me a hint?
best regards,

I don't know where to put the image/graphic for my main page/define a page, or how to figure out the url.

I put it in public.html/images -- and put http://www.alovelything.com/images/(name of photo.gif) in the spot for image on the define a page editor. But the define a page editor says the file not found on this server.

What am I doing wrong?

1) arguably yes, the coder Jen(true) possibly made the assumption that you had read the installation files thoroughly!

A little experience sometimes makes you forget how thorough you instructions have to be.

2) Just install Cherry Zen, and then add the MySQL patch for column grid, the instructions are included in the readme. Jettrue has been good enough to include the php from the start and the sql file is included in the mod.

I would always recommend a XAMPP installation (or MAC equiv) a My SQL backup and a second read of the instructions.


How do I know? I made mistakes too.

Hello,

I managed to add the tabbed product info. Unfortunately it seems to have problems working with IH 2. But anyway I will post that on the tabbed forum.
My question is about the product info layout. I arranged the placement of the tabs below the image and product details. I would like to move my my cart buttons directly below my details and attributes. But...I'm stuck. Any help would be appreciated. I am posting a link but the site does have adult products. The link I am posting is only for lingerie.
Product Link

Thanks in advance!

New to cherry zen. Just switched from niffty and noticed some changes.

I placed spaces in between my paragraphs but they are not showing up in cherry template. I used <p>. It's still there in my text. Any reason why it is being ignored? Also, not all <p> commands are being ignored. Scroll to the bottom and you will notice how the text are bunched together.

Hi, sorry to bug you again!

I really like the top right menu links which are set up for Home, Shopping Cart and Checkout, but how do I change these links or add new ones?

Thank you
