Apple Zen Support Thread

[e81ny]

Jade,

I'm thinking to add "shopping cart" to header section.

(please see related thread: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=59136 )

Since this template is your design, I'd like to ask you in advance if you think I would have any problem doing so or if there's anything I should know?

Thank you very much for all your help!

I can't imagine why it would have any issues on the template specifically, though I'm sure you'll have to do some css tweaking.

how did www.horse-logos.com change the background color up by the header...

where is that in the css stylesheet?

what was done in order to remove the sides?

where is that?

i don't want to do it to my site, i just want to understand...

i just can't find it

How do you change the name "CATEGORIES" in the drop menu wrapper to something else like "PRODUCTS".

Also, when you click on "CATEGORIES" it takes you to the site map. Isn't there a better page to link the main Categories page to?

Thanks.

For issue #1, that is done in the includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/drop_menu.php

For issue #2, what page would you like it to link to?

Look back in this thread, I think on the previous page, I helped them get that changed. Basically if you look at the source of your site, you'll see the css tags that can be adjusted. The ones up there are #navEZPagesTop, #navCatTabs and #navCatTabsWrapper, and #dropMenuWrapper and #dropMenu.

#1:
I assume I replace YOUR_TEMPLATE with apple_zen but the only file I have there is header.php

#2:
I was wondering if there was a page that lists/summarizes all the categories under the CATEGORIES instead of linking to the site map. Kind of an overview of all the products listed?

#1. oops, sorry, I should have said:

includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/apple_zen/headermenu.php

#2. No, there is no such page, which is why I sent it to the sitemap.

How to display the categories dropdown menu in the right sideboxes for this template?

I am trying to get it to display the Categories drop down in the right sidebox as in the example, I cant find where that would be in the admin/layout box settings though.. can anyone point me to it?

Thanks for this!

I've added this to the download section:

Category Drop Down Select Menu Sidebox

Jade,

You have been a huge help and please let me preface my question with my willingness to support your great doings by making a contribution to your work. Please let me know how I can send you a monetary donation.

My question is that I have been working on customizing your Apple Zen template and need some guidance in formatting. I have seen a difference in how the site is displayed using different internet browsers. Recently, I saw some issues with IE6. If you could please help me in correcting this issue, I would be greatly appreciative.

Also, I know the contribution is not yours, but I added the login sidebox and it seems that the input fields are causing the display to act funny. There is a screenshot of it included. If you know how to adjust the size of the text fields, please let me know.

Here are screen shots of the site when browsing IE6. The live site can be seen at http://www.gourmutts.com


The store name is indented a bit from the address:



The create account area is moved all the way down the page:


The shipping radio buttons are not inline with the name of the method:


The second step of the checkout process is moved to the bottom of the page as well:




This is the sidebox of the login mod that the fields are too long:


Thank you again!
