Westminster New

[DrByte]

I suspect the change you probably made to remove the dropdown-on-hover was either to tpl_main_page.php, which determines which header subtemplate to load if desktop vs mobile vs tablet is detected, or to tpl_header_mobile.php which in turn loads tpl_modules_mobile_categories_tabs.php

Many thanks DrByte,

it turned out not to be any of your suggestions above ...HOWEVER.... your suggestions set me to digging deeper into other templates so I did a comparison of tpl_header.php and BINGO !!

The culprit was that the tpl_header.php was a version 1.5.1 on a site that is 1.5.5f ........ absolutely no idea how that version of template ended up on a site that is a newer build than the comparison site, also 1.5.5f and the same template file set was used. Anyway, simply replacing that file with the 1.5.5 version fixed the issue.

Thanks for responding as quickly as you did.

cheers,
Mike

p.s. will look at reverting to .png or .jpg images - was trying to reduce page loading speed

I installed zc v1.5.7 and wanted to use the Westminster New template. My PHP version is 7.3.25.

My Zen Cart admin area is now crashing right after starting.

Is there a solution for this or should I use a v1.5.6 instead?

First of all, make sure you are at 1.5.7b.
Second, the template is not used on the admin side and is probably not your problem.
There should be an error file in your logs directory referencing the problem. Post it here using the # tag and make sure to X out your admin name.

Thank you for your response. I reinstalled the files in my_admin folder (i.e. layout_controller.php) and deleted the files that came extra with the Westminster new template. Now I have access to my admin side again, but the website itself still crashes. I am using ZC1.5.7b and am testing the site on a XAMPP local host.

I wil try to find and read the log files.

With 1.5.7#, go to Admin >> Modules >> Plugin Manager and install the Display Logs mod. That will help.

That's a nice tool. I made a Zencart webstore about 8 years ago and have a lot of catching up to do.

There is al lot of information in the error logs and it look like the template installation was not completely succesful.

I downgraded to ZC1.5.6c but get the same results. The admin area immediately crashes after selecting the Westminster New template. With the Responsive Classic Blue template I have got the same issue and I am totally out off clues for this one.

Is there someone who recognizes this problem and has a solution for it?

i am not sure what exactly your issue is. i can provide no support for the westminster template.

if you are using the responsive classic template, what is the issue? if the admin is crashing, we would need to see some log files indicating what the crash is.

the only log that i see refers to SHOW_EZ_PAGES_MENU which is a PHP notice and is not relevant to the admin crashing. and that constant is NOT part of a base 157 install, so it means it is part of the westminster template.

with regards to 156 v 157; always go with the latest if possible. currently i'm not seeing any reason to not be on the 157 branch.

best.

I made a ZC1.5.7b fresh install and copied the Westminster New template files. In my admin area I selected the Westminster New template. Immediately after that the Admin site crashes with "WARNING: An Error occurred, please refresh the page and try again. If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.".

I use XAMPP v3.2.4. There are no problems using other templates.
