turns out my config file that goes with the multi-site plugin was missing the final ?> at the end of the page. that caused all of the problems.. thanks for your help.

I am happy that you figured out the problem ;)

Thanks,

Anne

one more thing - hate to be a bother again.. now that i have the site working and will start to customize it, i notice - and others on this forum noticed that the site loads very slow.. is it possible i missed something else?

The slow loading time is not related to the template. I would look to things like your image sizes, are your images optimized, your web host, etc. Also, if you look in the FAQs section of this site you will find a tutorial with instructions on how to speed up your site loading time ;)

Thanks,

Anne

Hi!

I am having a strange problem.
Alle the categories are activated and also my products, but i read the sentence There are no products to list in this category.
The only thing shown is new products for this month.

And you have to manually click the new button on the main page to see the newly added products, is that a normal procedure? I want to show the newly added products directly on the main page.

darn i had this working nicely today and then i must have updated some setting in the configuration but now the main content area shows below the left navigation instead of next to it.. http://www.swordsofhonor.net

any idea what setting i might have messed up? i have the left column status set to 1 and the right column status set to 0

The template is designed to be a responsive 3 column layout. If you want to use it with a 3 column display, you will have to adjust the width on line 270 of the responsive.css file with your new width--probably something like 770 px wide.

Thanks,

Anne

The products problem is not related to the template. Are you sure that the products in the categories are turned on?

See this to set which tab content shows by default:

i think i understand this but i DO want the responsive design.. and i changed the right column status to a 1 so that the right column will show up but it does not.. i then went back and followed all the directions and started over (except for the sql commands) and i still can't get it to work. in fact now the right column shows up below the middle column..

Hi Anne,
figured it out, the date of the product wasn't saved properly and remained empty, that's why the categories weren't filled. I figured out another way to add a date and it works. Now 600 products to go... ;-)

Thank you for your great template and keep up the good work!
