Apple Zen Support Thread

I can only presume this has been asked before, or the answer is somewhere simple, but I could not find the answer via searching for the life of me..

So it is with a little embarrassment I ask, what do I need to edit to change the text found to the right of the logo (which reads 'To change any of the site colors, open up includes/templates/apple_zen/css/stylesheet.css. To overwrite your own logo, upload your logo.gif to includes/templates/apple_zen/images/')

Thanks

Open up your admin, go to "Tools", "Developers Tool Kit" and search for a portion of the text, I always use the bottom search box. It will tell you exactly where to change it. I could tell you, but this way you'll know what to do next time you want to change some text.

Thanks again for this template which is great.

I've a problem with the create account page.
The zip code field (and this field only) aligns to the right instead of being under the text like all other fields.
See: http://www.skipros.eu/index.php?main...create_account

This happens only since I modified the template to have no sideboxes.
More precisely when I paste the following into stylesheet.css:
#centerColumnWrapper2 {
background:#ffffff!important;
}

.centerColumn {
float:left!important;
width:95%!important;
}

May be I'm not pasting it in the right position as I do not know CSS as I should.
(Note: I've enabled grey)
Can you help me?

Change:

LABEL.inputLabel {
	width:85%;
	float:left;
	margin:0.3em 0;
	}

to:

LABEL.inputLabel {
	width:95%;
	float:left;
	margin:0.3em 0;
	}

Small image size.

Change:

LABEL.inputLabel {
	width:85%;
	float:left;
	margin:0.3em 0;
	}

to:

LABEL.inputLabel {
	width:95%;
	float:left;
	margin:0.3em 0;
	}

It's unbelievable, not only the template is great and free, but also the support that you are giving is outstanding!!!

Hey, my site is coming along very nicely now thanks in large part to apple zen. I just have one problem. Whenever I click on the "My Accounts" link in the drop down menu it goes to a blank page.

Now I know that usually means a syntax error, but I've searched every single page in the languages folder and can't find anything that would reveal syntax error. It could be my eyes getting all watery from stairing at code...I also tried using the myDEBUG thing and it keeps telling me the problem is in the english.php but I really can't see it there and have skimmed it numerous times finding no syntax errors.

I have two hypothesees about the problem. a) it's an uploading error or b) its still a syntax error lost in endless code.

So if possible, could you help me find where this information is kept. And when I say this information where the code would be that makes the page goto ?main_page=account.

Any help/suggestions/info would be greatly appreciated as I REALLY don't want to have to re-install everything..THANKS!

PS...the problem goes away after logging in, but when logging in I also get another blank page on ?main_page=login&action=process

thanks..

If you have an error somewhere, there's no way for me to know where it might be. If it says its in english.php, why not upload a pure version of english.php to test?

You must upload ALL of the files. Every single one.

Jade,

Thanks a lot for your timely help. my site is in a good shape now. I have only one question:

how do i change the menu font size?

The drop-dwon "CATEGORIES" runs out of page. I want to make those fonts small like radioshack.com, so all users can see all menu selections. I tried to reduce font size h1-h6 by .3, i did not see any changes.

I suspect sb may ask this before, but I can not find it. it is very difficult to search since i can not search 'menu font size' within apple zen support thread. Is there a better way to search?

Thanks, -Dale

No, h1-h3 wouldn't do anything, since the menu doesn't use h1-h3 at all. You can view the source of your site to see what that section DOES use (for example, you'll seen the menu is wrapped by <div id="dropMenu"></div> so then you can use:

#dropMenu {font-size:.9em;}
