Image Titles Support Thread

[crabdance]

Hi again Glenn,

Have got everything working (after reading the instructions again) Thanks for the mod and have a great one!

[crabdance]

After doing yet some more reading I was able to come up with all the answers to my questions. Thanks for your help.

Just installed the image titles mod, but my images 'spill' over the sidebox;



I can't find what could be causing it - I've removed the padding within the css file, but only moved it left slightly.

Any ideas at all please?

Thanks

The images are used as foreground images, so if they are larger than the "standard" space your title occupies they will expand the header box.

Also, if the standard title has padding, that will be added to the image dimensions. Code to account for this is posted in the Hiding the sidebox heading fonts/links.... thread, post #14.

I hope someone can help --

I am trying to change the Whos Online text in the sidebox to an image. I originally used the instructions HERE and was successful in changing everything except whos online.

So then I downloaded and installed the Image Titles and I am a bit confused about this part

Name your header title images like boxhead-categories.gif and save in /your_template/buttons/your_language/. Look in view source to get the box id at the top of each sidebox output.

Ok so what exactly do you do with the box id - where exactly does it go?
Thanks!

The image filename for each sidebox needs to include the name (id) of the sidebox.

The categories box has an id of categories, so its image file will be named boxhead-categories.gif.

Hi Glenn,
I've been chipping away at this all afternoon, looking at endless posts but have not found a similar problem.
Let me just start by saying the same thing everyone else does - I'm a total ZenCart noob - I've put together quite a few other CMS sites, and see how dramatically different ZC is from the others I've done.
So, I installed the awesome Image Titles mod so that I could add images to my sidebar boxes, and hopefully eventually to the main level of my dropdown menu as well (but that's a whole nother problem right now!). The template is a heavily modified version of Apple Zen (not even close to being finished tweaking with yet...)
The very first thing that happened was that I lost all the sideboxes and the main navigation bar on the main page - they just completely disappeared when I refreshed the page after the initial install of the files. When you click on the link for "Great Gifts" it takes you to a different page, and there they are again! I'm trying not to panic, but...why??? All I did was rename the folders as instructed, and add some images (at least some are correctly named, or they wouldn't show up at all, right?), although I MIGHT have touched some other files while I floundering around before I discovered the mod... Do you have any ideas about what I could have done to mess this up??
Here's the link to the main page

This is such a great mod - absolutely perfect for my needs!
Thanks so much in advance,

Anybody???

I really need some help with this - and I don't know where to start...
I'm sure it's a simple fix, but I really need some help!

Actually, I just looked at the page again and found this error message at the bottom of the index page:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: zen_get_generated_category_path_rev() in PATHREMOVED/includes/modules/aubizenred/new_products.php on line 69

Does this help?
Thanks

I just double-checked, and there is no difference between the stock v1.3.8 version of /includes/modules/new_products.php and the Image Titles version in /includes/modules/your_template/new_products.php except for the comment at the top of the file and the actual mod code on lines 84-87. I don't see how this could cause the reported error on line 69, so I think you need to investigate what other files you might have touched.

The new products mess up only on the home page, and work fine on others, so I doubt it is directly caused by the mod. If you don't need to use image titles for the new products centerbox, you can delete /includes/modules/aubizenred/new_products.php without affecting anything else. (You might try changing it temporarily to /includes/modules/aubizenred/new_products.bak to see if the problem still exists with the default copy of the file.)

Thanks Glenn!

I did rename the file and immediately got back my navigation and sideboxes on the home page. I'm still a bit (ok, a lot) confused about what I might've done to other files to mess this up, but I'll keep looking at it.

Now I have another question:
Does this mod allow me to use an image for the top level in the horizontal menu bar? How should I name the images for that?

Thanks again!
