    Default SQL dump file upload PROBLEM!!

    i uploaded the sql dump file that accompanied my template 3(three) times using the sql query executor tool in the admin area of zencart.

    for some reason, two menu areas on my site are now repeating 3 times.

    I exported the whole sql database into Excel and ran a search query to find the strings that the Dump file updated, and nothing looks repeated. But rather, it appears exactly how it was told to appear as per the update and config query in the dump file.

    I really hope to get some help quick

    Any help is greatly

    1. Whoever wrote that SQL file clearly didn't anticipate this situation. You should be telling them that they need to fix it.
    2. You likely have multiple entries for each sidebox in your layout_tables table in the database. You'll need to delete the duplicates.
    3. Since the SQL should be deemed unreliable, you probably should "back out" any other changes that were made ... in case you have duplicates of those too.

    You should also be contacting whoever made your template to obtain support.
