    A BIG challenge is that you've decided to use a TemplateMonster template. These depart SIGNIFICANTLY from standard Zencart, so help and advice on this forum is rare. Most helpers here do NOT use "bought" templates, and trying to "unpick" them can take many long hours. We just don't have time for that (we need to spend at least some of our time earning a living )

    I feel that if you don't have sufficient knowledge of PHP and the overall structure of zencart, you will have no choice but to hire someone to put certain changes in place - and again, you will need someone who is not only up-to-speed with zencart code, but also knows (or is prepared to learn) more about the template you are using.

    I'm sorry to come across in what may seem a negative way, but having been a regular advisor on this forum for over 6 years now, I have seen huge numbers of enthusiastic novices plead for help with these commercial templates, and in most cases having their questions unanswered. These templates are just too radically different for us to offer quick help and advice, which is only possible really when zencart's CORE code and functionality have not been so radically altered.

    Ironically, it is often possible to achieve similar designs that these commercial templates achieve, using cloned copies of the zencart classic templates and sensible bolt-ons of some of the free add-on modules.

    Don't apologise - I think its a fair observation

    The template does pretty much all I want it to do but I like to learn as much as possible about the how!!??

    If I cannot center my images its no big deal - the company I purchased the template from have been great but I wanted to try and do as much on my own and understand my site rather than be a passive bystander

    Thanks again I do appreciate the time
