template switch addon

[MyDigitalFixation]

I installed this mod and now find that the buttons are a little issue. If I set a template to use css buttons then when switching between templates the other templates will also have to use the css buttons. For some templates I would like to have css buttons turned off.

If I have css buttons turned on in admin settings, is there a file I can override on a per template basis to hardcode turning off css buttons?

If I have css buttons turned on in admin settings, is there a file I can override on a per template basis to hardcode turning off css buttons?

one way could be to change the database-entry IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS

UPDATE configuration SET configuration_key = 'IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS_' WHERE configuration_key = 'IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS' LIMIT 1;

this files make use from the constant IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS

includes\functions\html_output.php (267:20)
includes\functions\html_output.php (293:20)
includes\templates\template_default\sideboxes\tpl_search.php (17:18)
includes\templates\template_default\sideboxes\tpl_search_header.php (16:18)

you have now to create or modify the file includes\templates\YOUR_TEMPLATE\common\main_template_vars.php

add a line with

define('IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS', 'no')

you can see it
- http://demo.zen-cart.at/index.php?ma..._switch_id=css == CSS buttons
http://demo.zen-cart.at/index.php?ma...witch_id=XAJAX == image buttons

Thank you very much!

I've revised code to alter the look of zencart but have never revised the functional code (except for installing mods) so I better run this by you first to be sure I get it correct.



From includes\functions\html_output.php

line 267

if (strtolower(IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS) == 'yes' && strlen($alt)<30) return zenCssButton($image, $alt, 'submit', $sec_class /*, $parameters = ''*/ );

line 293

if (strtolower(IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS) == 'yes') return zenCssButton($image, $alt, 'button', $sec_class, $parameters = '');

From includes/templates/template_default/sideboxes - the code referencing IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS

your line 17, in my file is at line 33

if (strtolower(IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS) == 'yes') {

From includes/templates/template_default/sideboxes - the code referencing IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS

your line 16, in my file is at line 31

if (strtolower(IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS) == 'yes') {

for the above strings, after they have been revised, is this how they should look?

Can someone PLEASE, answer my question?

[hugo13]

sorry for confusion

1)
you have only to manipulate 1 template file :: includes\templates\YOUR_TEMPLATE\common\main_template_vars.php
if the file does not exist, copy the one from template_default
now add a line with

  if (file_exists(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'pages/' . $current_page_base . '/main_template_vars.php')) {
    $body_code = DIR_WS_MODULES . 'pages/' . $current_page_base . '/main_template_vars.php';
  } else {
    $body_code = $template->get_template_dir('tpl_' . preg_replace('/.php/', '',$_GET['main_page']) . '_default.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_' . $_GET['main_page'] . '_default.php';
  }

// template-switch
define('IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS', 'no');

2) use zen-cart admin
tools > install sql patches and run

UPDATE configuration SET configuration_key = 'IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS_', configuration_title = 'CSS Buttons (functionless)' WHERE configuration_key = 'IMAGE_USE_CSS_BUTTONS' LIMIT 1;

@ideasgirl
look at :: http://demo.zen-cart.at/index.php?ma...id=viennablood

viennablood == the standard german-template; 800px
XAJAX == 1024px & ajax for products
css == zen-cart international = screen wide
hugo13_orange == smarty based template (never finished)

Yes Hugo, but my question goes to "if it fixed" and not fluid. See, your templates (and other I've seen) are with fluid backgrounds (colors and bars) but I haven't seen it with different columns and boxes with different fixed width (which usually you have to change in admin panel).

[MyDigitalFixation]

That works perfectly. Thank you very much for the mod and the extra help!

I think you can do all what you can do with css
look at: http://demo.zen-cart.at/index.php?ma..._switch_id=css

#navColumnTwo {
  width: 111px !IMPORTANT;
}

#templateswitch {
	position:absolute;
	width:400px !IMPORTANT;
	height:15px;
	z-index:1;
	left: 333px;
	top: 77px;
}
#categories{
	position:absolute;
	width:200px !IMPORTANT;
	height:15px;
	z-index:1;
	left: 3px;
	top: 77px;
}

Ok, great! I'll give it a try...
