Image size in Specials

[Ajeh]

I would start with the Debug Tool from the Free Software Add Ons and see if that tells you where the problem is ...

Thanks - I've installed DEBUG and checked it's in the right folder and cache file permissions are writable. There is no log file which I take from another post means there is no php error.

I've again uploaded every specials file from my original zen-cart and template download.
Still getting no centre column - I do get the sideboxes - but always have.

Can you think of something else?

Make sure that the /cache directory is set to 777 and that you refresh the FTP window after you hit the Specials page ...

Also, check the Configuration ... Maximum Values ... and make sure you don't have things set to 0 ...

[annedig]

OMG - thank you. It was the max values set to 0

[Ajeh]

Hate when that happens ...

Hi,
I know I can cgange the bg or add an image to all sideboxed by editing this line :
.sideBoxContent {background-color: #fff;padding: 0.4em;padding-top:10px;border:0px solid #e1e1e9;}

in the stylesheet. But I have product finder mod in a sidebox and I wish to add a bg image to that sidebox only.

Anyone know how to do this ...Please!

Thanks

There is the Specials centerbox and the Specials page ... you are trying to make changes in the Specials Page but want the changes to happen to the Specials centerbox ... based on your image ...

Look at the module:
specials_index.php

Hello,

Using ver 1.5.0

Still don't see where the variable to set w x h size of the specials in the center box and the page

I've looked in

includes/modules/specials_index.php
and
includes/modules/pages/specials/main_template_vars.php

I can see the sidebox special is using the admin->config->Images-(Small Image Width) in there but nothing for center box and page.

Anyone solved this.

Thanks

The specials center box uses the same settings as the small images width and small image height ...

If you want different values you would need to customize the specials centerbox with your templates and overrides and change the values for:
SMALL_IMAGE_WIDTH
SMALL_IMAGE_HEIGHT

That also controls the image size in the sideboxs. Anyway to change specials only . If i increase to 200 the specials images look perfect but all sidebox images are too big

Using your templates and overrides, customize the file:
/includes/modules/specials_index.php

by copying to:
/includes/modules/your_template_dir/specials.php

and change the image sizes in RED directly in the code to the sizes you need:

    $list_box_contents[$row][$col] = array('params' => 'class="centerBoxContentsSpecials centeredContent back"' . ' ' . 'style="width:' . $col_width . '%;"',
    'text' => (($specials_index->fields['products_image'] == '' and PRODUCTS_IMAGE_NO_IMAGE_STATUS == 0) ? '' : '<a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($specials_index->fields['products_id']), 'cPath=' . $productsInCategory[$specials_index->fields['products_id']] . '&products_id=' . (int)$specials_index->fields['products_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $specials_index->fields['products_image'], $specials_index->fields['products_name'], SMALL_IMAGE_WIDTH, SMALL_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '</a><br />') . '<a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($specials_index->fields['products_id']), 'cPath=' . $productsInCategory[$specials_index->fields['products_id']] . '&products_id=' . $specials_index->fields['products_id']) . '">' . $specials_index->fields['products_name'] . '</a><br />' . $products_price);
