    Default Missing tpl_header.php file

    Hi, I am trying to change things around in my header file. I am using the EzBlue template. Went into templates/EzBlue/common to try and find tpl_header.php

    The only file was the footer file. Please help. I am still new to Zen Cart.

    The main goal here is to make www.spectechind.com/store look like and have the same buttons as www.spectechind.com

    Any kind of help is good help right now.

    The home/log in needs to move down underneath our logo and then we want to push up the buttons for 'home' 'products' 'literature' etc. instead of having 'ezpages' we want the store and site to interact as one site, not two separate sites. Hope I made this clear. Thanks ahead of time.

    If there is no header.php file in the over-rides folder, you'll need to make a copy of the original in template_default/common/ and then FTP it to the over-rides folder.

    Then you can edit that one.

    An easy method is to "hard code" these into the tpl_header.php, but it's generally better to code the page properly using valid php, calling these resources from defines and other sources.

    The hard coding will usually be typical HTML such as <a href...> and <img src> hyperlinks.

    For you to be able to make changes to your site you will need to have some knowledge of how html and php works. You will need to take a crash course and study or anything someone tells you will not make any sense.
