Hi again jettrue, I have another question for you. If I want to use an image for my back ground how would I do that. It's blue now but I want to use like candy canes, Christmas trees or something like that for Christmas. What file would I have to modify for this.
Thank you

How would you go about doing this. When I insert the image for the back ground, it just shows a white back ground. This is what I have change it from.

From this

/* other background color or image changes */
body {
background:#84A4C1; /* main site background color, blue default */
}

To this

/* other background color or image changes */
body {
background:christmas.jpg; /* main site background color, christmas default */
}

Only shows a white back ground. I have changed it back for the time being.

background:url("../images/christmas.jpg");

or

background:url("../images/christmas.jpg") repeat;

if it needs to repeat itself.

Put the image into the includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/images folder.

Thank you for that on the shopping cart sidebox is there a way to add a check out button to that

I'm sure, I'd either start a new thread about this, or find a shopping cart sidebox thread to add it to. I don't have quick instructions for you on how to do that. Or here, I did a search, here's a thread that gives some specific instructions, starting at post #5.

Thank you jettrue for your help. That worked out perfect. I have another question for you. How do you change the back ground color for all the side boxes. I want them to be a different color than gray. Thank you

How do I get a banner next to the logo in the header?

The readme file says:

You can also turn on a banner that will show up below the tagline if you have a tagline, or in place of the tagline. The Banner Position for that would be the Header Position 2.

I looked in Banner manager but cannot find a Header Position 2. What am I missing?

Hi bekinky, you need to go to your admin then go to Configuration - Layout Settings - Banner Display Groups - Header Position 2 .

Banner Display Groups - Header Position 2
The Banner Display Groups can be from 1 Banner Group or Multiple Banner Groups

For Multiple Banner Groups enter the Banner Group Name separated by a colon :

Example: Wide-Banners:SideBox-Banners

What Banner Group(s) do you want to use in the Header Position 2?
Leave blank for none

This is where you need to go.

Thanks countrycharm - it worked a treat. I just need to design some banners now :)

Oh dear - my layout works great in Firefox but looks terrible in IE. What can be wrong? I added code and styles so the cart appeared in the header on the right.

I added this to the stylesheet:

.cartheader{
color:#FFFFFF;
float: right;
padding-right: 20px;
padding-top: 5px;
font-size: 11px;
}

And I added this to the common/tpl_header.php:

<!-- bof cart header display -->
<div id="navCartWrapper" class="cartheader">
Your Basket:&nbsp;<?php echo ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents()); ?>&nbsp;item(s)&nbsp;&nbsp;Total:£<?php echo ($_SESSION['cart']->show_total()); ?>
</div>
<!-- eof cart header display -->

I will PM you with a URL to the test site if you want to see it in action
