Apple Zen Support Thread

I'm not seeing that issue. Now, when you go to a page that's longer, it will "jump" to the left a bit because of the scroll bar? Is that what you're seeing perhaps?

Well, that explains why I couldn't find anything wrong in the CSS! I didn't even notice the side bar!

Yeah, I've been there, done that!

There are ways to work around that:

1) You can do something like this:
.greeting a {color:#ff0000;}

Or to change the hover color:
.greeting a:hover {color:#ff0000}


2)a.category-top:hover{color:#ff0000;}

3) I don't think you're using the most recent version of this template; I've made some significant fixes.

4) That depends on what you want to do. In your admin you can disable some of them, with "Configuration", "Define Page Status".

Thanks for the help

1/2) Which file is .greeting a:hover... and a.category-top... in?

3) I was using version 1.6 I updated to 1.8 now in IE6 I am getting an error... Error: Access is denied to http://axlesforless.com/includes/csshover.htc
The forms are show correctly but the drop down menus don't work

Thanks!

The stylesheet. includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet.css

Do you get the same error at http://www.axlesforless.com/ vs. http://axlesforless.com/

Did you add the stuff from additions_to_.htaccess to your .htaccess file?

Couple of nagging questions --

1) In IE there is small strip between the logo image and the first navigation bar... I have tried monkeying around with the style sheet with no results.. Does not show up ithis way in Firefox.

2) I want to change the title and contents of the 'Conditions of use' dropdown, breadcrumb etc. When I make changes to 'condtions' page in the define pages editor, the edits don't show up - so obviously I'm pointing at the wrong file... somewhere.


Thanks.

Hi, I hate to ask such a stupid question but how do I remove:

To change any of the site colors, open up includes/templates/apple_zen/css/stylesheet.css. To overwrite your own logo, upload your logo.gif to includes/templates/apple_zen/images/

Also, I would like to make that whole area my logo. Not sure what size to make the logo.gif or if I need to change anything else.

Thanks for a great template.

background:url(../images/site-bg-flowers.gif) 0 7em repeat;

Try changing this part back to 9em instead of 7em. Or try 8em.

2)Anytime you want to change text that you're not sure where it comes from, go to your admin, go to "Developers Tool Kit" and do a search for the text you want to change. You can limit the search to language files only. Also make sure to make the changes within the right folder... are you changing it in the apple_zen folder?

See my post above (do a search in the admin anytime there is text you want to change).

Yes, you would overwrite logo.gif with your logo, then you need to play around with the logo width in the stylesheet:

#logo {
width:19.1em /* To prevent the logo from resizing, simply delete or comment out this section */
}

No go. Tried 8, 9, and 10 - they all look the same.

okay - I got the titles changed to the way that I want, but something still isn't right.

/public_html/includes/languages/english/html_includes/apple_zen/define_conditions.php is the file that is being edited using the define pages editor tool, some changes have been made to that file but from the site the 'conditions of use' (now titled fabric terminology) page is still blank, I copied this file into the html_includes directory on the chance that the override was being picked up.. no change.

/public_html/includes/languages/english/conditions.php has the default message define('TEXT_INFORMATION', 'Your Conditions of Use information should be on this page.'); which I might expect to see... except that isn't the file being edited by the define pages editor . .

Have you checked your permissions on the html_includes folder?

As far as the header, I think its because you have changed the repeat-x on that image to just repeat (I understand you want it to go all the way down the page) but just for kicks, try changing it back to repeat-x and see if that fixes the top issue.
