Re: Template problem !

You need to talk to the folks that built the template.

Re: Template problem !

You have a Template Monster template, which has eliminated many of the standard Zen Cart functions and tags that should let you control these things easily.

The "home button" is the breadcrumbs, which is an important navigation aid to help the user to know where they are on your site. I would not recommend disabling it, though you are free to change its styling.

The categories at the top/middle are the categories-tabs menu, and you *should* be able to turn this off in Admin > Configuration > Layout Settings.

The green area in the footer has several levels of CSS tags provided by Zen Cart, but TM has eliminated all of them so that there is no way to address that specifically. It will require some coding in /your_template/common/tpl_footer.php or whatever TM has used to replace it to add tags back in.
You might look at /template_default/common/tpl_footer.php to see the way the standard tags are applied.

Re: Template problem !

I prefer to work in the forum unless a subject needs to be confidential. I see you have decided to completely turn off the breadcrumbs.

For the footer, we will need to see the code you have in order to help you fix it. Please post your tpl_footer.php, between code tags [noparse]- [php] before it and [/php][/noparse] after it.

Re: Template problem !

OK, on examining your style.css stylesheet, TM has eliminated all Zen Cart tags for controlling style and substituted some of their own. There is a footer class which they have not given a background to, and therefore the footer will have the same background as the page body. Apparently the background you want to match is a repeating solid color gif: url(../images/sq2.gif). Why they used another image file instead of just making a background-color I don't know.


Try editing /theme035/css/style.css to change:

.footer { height:97px; color:#686868;}

to

.footer { height:97px; color:#686868; background: url(../images/sq2.gif);}
