change background color

that because you need to place the file in your custom folder that you made when you first installed zen.
Might look like this
includes/templates/custom/css/stylesheet.css
Do not remove or delete the one in
template/default/css

the only folders in the template folders are the classic and the default folders.

How do i create the custom folder.

[nomadrw]

you should have already have that folder made when you installed zen.
if not then you need to get an ftp program, or you can do it from your host site.
It's just like making a folder on your computer. just follow the path I gave you above.

I have created the folder/templates/custom/css/ and put the style sheet with the changes in it no difference. How do I tell zencart to look at this folder.

[nomadrw]

can you please post what changes you made on the stylesheet.css

You can't simply change one file and expect Zen Cart to know where to find it.

To create a very basic custom template (you can build from there), you need:

• includes/languages/YOUR_TEMPLATE/english.php
• includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/index.php
• includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/header.php (to change the logo)
• includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/template_info.php
• includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_header.php
• includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_footer.php
• includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/images/logo.gif
• includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet.css

Anywhere you see a /classic/ folder, you can create a folder for your custom template. You can copy the necessary files from either the /classic/ folder, the /template_default/ folder or the parent folder.

Edit includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/template_info.php to give your template identifying information so you'll recognize it in the admin under tools->template selection.

I was assuming that when someone installs Zen that they already built their custom folder and placed all the necessary files in it.
I quess I can not assume that any more.

My fault on that one.
