Responsive Sheffield Blue v2.0

[Webling]

edit the footer menu in admin--tools--flexible footer menu

You can edit the includes/templates/responsive_sheffield_blue/templates/tpl_modules_mobile_categories_tabs.php file to remove the brands.

Thanks,

Anne

Hi,
I love this template. I also would like to remove the BRANDS from the header bar. Could you be more specidic about what needs to be changed in the file listed above? Thanks. I would also like to take the reference to DISCOUNTS out.

You need to find the section of code that displays the part that you want to remove. There are comments like <!--bof shop by brand --> and <!-- eof shop by brand --> to help you what code is for what. Basically you have to remove what it between the comments but also that first line on line 39
<li class="brands-li"><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT); ?>" class="drop"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MANUFACTURERS; ?></a><!--bof shop by brand -->

to make it work. Not sure why the comments are placed where they are. It's not all the code that is needed to be removed. Same goes for the Customer Service section. A few more lines of code have to be removed after the <!-- eof customer service -->

</li>
</ul>

</li>
to make it work. Not very intuitive for the not so code savvy. But if you have Notepad++ you can see what code section starts where and ends where on the left side with the plus and minus signs. Hope this helps.

There is another option to "remove" brands and others:

in includes/templates/responsive_sheffield_blue/templates/css/stylesheet.css
arround line 359: .slimmenu li.brands-li{display:none;}

and for hiding it also in mobiles add to the stylesheet.css this:
arround line 362: .slimmenu.collapsed li.brands-li{display:none;}

Nice, that seems simpler. Is there no issue with it by just hiding it by css? Is it hidden from search engines that way? Any other advantages to to it one way or the other? Just curious.

Unfortunately, spiders, bots, kiddies, etc... they ignore or tend to ignore the css and read the raw source code. This can be seen by those that in previous versions of the mega menu hid the contact us form on the page, but left all of the contact us content and would receive junk mail and not be able to determine the origin. One look at the source code and it was obvious.

Css is for styling (cascade style sheet) not for content. Content is what people are expected to receive/see. Css is how it is presented.

@mc12345678 thank you for clarification. I suspected as much. So removing the code is the way to go for me.

Hi. I'm just getting into ZenCart and I'm trying templates. I'm trying the Responsive Sheffield Blue template, but the strangest thing occurred. The first time I installed it it looked just like the demo, with three dimensional ribbons and such. I started messing with it, broke something (this is a test area), and so I re-installed ZenCart after wiping out the whole directory. I then re-installed Responsive Sheffield Blue and it looks right except that it doesn't have the three dimensional ribbons and such. I've actually re-install ZenCart a couple times. No luck. Does anyone know what I did or how to return it back to the original look?

Thanks so much.

Did your reinstall also include the database? You mentioned you started changing things and if that includes Admin Settings, perhaps that is where things are not right.

Also, without a link to the site in question we cannot see what you see and are only guessing; which may or may not make replies helpful.

Thanks for responding. Yes, the first time I actually wiped the database too, and that didn't help, making the mystery even bigger. Sorry, about no link. That makes good sense: http://yanis-maher.com/store.

So, in the interest of simplifying things, I just wiped the store and database and rebuilt them. I then uploaded and activated Responsive Sheffield Blue. Still no three dimensional qualities to the ribbons (if I have that element identified correctly), like Categories and Documents. Now I'm wondering what I initially did to make it actually work right.
