Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

[oce328]

Hi,

I wonder if anyone can help me.

I already run 2 websites using Cherry Zen and they run just fine, it's a graet template.

I have just downloaded the latest version to set up a new website but the page is only showing approx 80% of the screen width although both of my original sites filled the full width without any adjustment.
the new site is http://spellbindinggifts.co.uk
and one of my originals is http://kiddywinkys.co.uk

I have uploaded the css from the original site to the new one, ie both of these sites now have identical stylesheet.css but display differently.
The new site is Zen 1.3.9.h
the original is 1.3.8.a

Anyone got any ideas?

I am having an issue with the attributes showing in a narrow column Could someone take a quick look and tell me if there is a setting I am missing? I am running 1.3.9h zencart and the latest version of cherryzen 1.8

Thank you

I am grateful for this wonderful template.

We are using it as a showcase (not liveshop) on our company's corporate website
v1.3.9h

I have couple questions that are mostly related to layout issues;
1. Since there's no need for account sign-up or shopping cart etc. I just needed all those removed from the header and just leave "Home" there. I managed to do that by deleting the texts from the header.php but the links are still there "Home" shoud be at the right end. How do I go about that?

2. Just like the
fellow zenner's website above I need the template to be fully stretched. It would be great if I can do that.

3. For some reason (only on Chrome) the Search box image on the header is broken. I have seen this happening on other people's websites, too. Is there way to fix that?

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Just installed Cherry Zen on my Zen Cart 1.50 RC2 test site - it works, BTW.

Quick question. I want to change it to fixed width and centered. No problem with the fixed width part, that's pretty easy. But I can't figure out how to center it. I'm sure it's something simple that I'm missing, and I'll free pretty stupid once one of you aces reveals the secret.

Thats already dealt with in the stylesheet:

#nw {
	text-align:left;
	vertical-align:top;
	margin:0 auto;
}

The margin:0 auto; will deal with automatically centering the site for you regardless of the width setting.

If you go to a fixed width, edit the following code:

#nw {
	width:80%; /* main site width; if you'd prefer a fixed width site, enter the width in px here. */
	max-width:1300px; /* prevents the main content from getting wider than 1300px in sites other than IE */
	min-width:1000px; /* this prevents the main content from getting smaller than 1000px in browsers OTHER THAN IE. You can make this as small as 800px, BUT any smaller than that, and the top header menu will break into two lines. Also, if you make this width 800px, you will need to make sure your product image on the product info page is no wider than 190px */
}
/* IE only. Controls Width of Site and Main Content*/
* html #nw {
 width:expression((d=document.compatMode=="CSS1Compat" ? document.documentElement : document.body) && (d.clientWidth > 1300? "1300px" : d.clientWidth > 1048? "80%" : d.clientWidth < 1048? "1000px" : "80%")); /* this prevents the site from getting smaller than 1000px or wider than 1300px in IE */
}
/* end IE only */
/* end site and main content width section */

And if you go fixed width you can probably collapse all of that code to the following:

#nw {width:960px;}

You can set that px width to whatever you want

Already tried that, didn't work.

If I change #nw {width:80%; to #nw {width:950px; nothing happens, even if I remove the rest of the section. I can fix the width by changing html>body {width: auto; to html>body {width: 950px;, but the site doesn't center.

I see, I played with it in firebug.....apparently your test site there is missing the #nw div which should be wrapping it to be able to set the size......
