Smart Backgrounds support

[gjh42]

Smart Backgrounds uses $_GET['main_page'] and similar superglobals to act on, so if MSU is not setting those correctly it will fail, per Conor's post that you referenced. You might try changing $_GET['cPath'] to $cPath in the function code and see if that makes a difference.

First off, THANK YOU for this mod!

I'm using the foreground images successfully for product categories, but would like to add some to manufacturer pages.

If the URL for the particular page is /index.php?main_page=index&manufacturers_id=29, what would my filename end with? I've tried every filename combination I can think of without luck.

Thanks again!

There is not currently a mechanism for identifying individual manufacturers' index pages. It would be possible to do; I can investigate when I am back home in a few days.

Thanks, Glenn -- that would be awesome!

Once again I am away from home, and unfortunately there is no way to mark threads "unread", so if I forget about something and there are a lot of posts before I get back, I may not see it again. I will try to remember this time.

Hi, I am working on www.test.theflowershoppe.co.uk. I am trying to add the different backgrounds for my logo wrapper.

I have added "'.png' to the tpl_main_page (was class="smartBG<?php echo smart_backgrounds();?>" but is now class="smartBG<?php echo smart_backgrounds('.png');?>").

I have added to my smartBG stylesheet:

#logoWrapper {background-image: url(../images/smartBG.png);}

.smartBG_contact_us #logoWrapper {background-image: url(../images/smartBG_contact_us.png);}

and uploaded the images to my template folder for images. No change on the contact page. I am sure I am doing something simple wrong, could you help please?

.smartBG_contact_us #logoWrapper {background-image: url(../images/smartBG_contact_us.png);}

The code looks for image files named in lowercase, like smartbg_whatever.whatever. Rename your images and modify your stylesheet rules like this:

.smartBG_contact_us #logoWrapper {background-image: url(../images/smartbg_contact_us.png);}

The stylesheet selectors do use camel case (.smartBG_contact_us).
