Using my own header

[marglar]

I have my own header with button links already in it that I'd like to use with my store.

1. How do I use my own header? I see how to replace the logo image, but I want to use my entire header. Using SSI would be just fine too if that is possible. I'm just not sure where to go.

2. How do I get rid of the bread-crumb?

Thanks a million for any help!

I have my own header with button links already in it that I'd like to use with my store.

Have you considered how these links are going to navigate to cart file/pages?

[marglar]

These links don't need to navigate the cart. They are a part of the larger website of which this cart is a part.

These links would be for home (the sites home page), about, contact, etc..
Below this head I would have the zen cart main navigation.

Kind of like on this site: (except they don't have buttons in their header)

Can anyone tell me how to put my own header into my cart?

Thanks

Do not know, because you have not stated, if this is DHTML, JavaScript, CSS, or what your current nav is constructed as.

Basically, the tpl_header.php file creates the header and this is where you can add your code - NOTE: Add your code leaving other important code untouched

Thanks.

I ended up inserting my html/css header and button links into header_tpl.php at the top, before all of the code and it worked just fine. It looks and functions exactly as I wanted it to.

Thanks again for the help.

Hello marglar,

Could you please paste your header_tpl.php code here, as I am also looking to put in my own header with button links?

Kind regards,
Anthony

Marglar,

I think you can just put any html(maybe tweaked a little) between:

<!--eof-branding display-->


PASE HTML HERE

<!--eof-header logo and navigation display-->

in tpl_header.php

I have it on: www.learta.com (click on shops) and you'll see.

Reason is that Shops is just a part of the site... hey also you might need to remove the header image from the CSS or something like that

hope that helps... if not experiment with other places inside of tpl_header

In which directory is tpl_header.php?

[gjh42]

/includes/templates/your_template/common/tpl_header.php.

Copy the file from /includes/templates/template_default/common/tpl_header.php into your custom template folder and then edit it.
