Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

[jettrue]

Hello. Another fan of this new template - so professional looking with just a touch of class, nice. I'm getting close to open my new site with this design and am so excited!

I saw the bubbles site and want to do the same with the horizontal menu but have asked that question in the appropriate spot.

However I do have some problems I need help in solving:

1. How do I move the template up in the window, the extra space about the main wrapper is begging to be reduced by half to my eye.
2. On the listing page of products how do I move the price down next to Add to My cart instead of hugging the image.
3. On the product descriptions page it's a total mess, on my site. Click on any product and you will see what I mean.

We're not open on this site yet as the secure socket layer is missing for credit card protection.

Thanks for your assistance, when I'm done I'll be donating.

1. open your stylesheet (includes/templates/cherry_zen/css/stylesheet.css) and change the margin-top here:


body {
font-family: "Lucida Grande", tahoma, verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size:73.5%;
margin-top:20px;
}

2. You'll have to open up includes/templates/cherry_zen/templates/tpl_product_info_display, find the price chunk, (it will be surrounded by a hidden start and end code), then cut and paste it nearer to the add to cart section. Then we'll have to see how that looks, and then adjust the css.

3. As per the readme.txt:

"The width of the image, tell a friend/reviews, and add to cart section is defined by your product image width. Please keep your product image width at 220 or less. If it is made wider than that, the layout will break. The width of the product information image can be adjusted in your admin, under "Configuration", "Images", "Product Info - Image Width".

It looks like you currently have your product image width at 0, I would change it to width: 150, height 150, that way your tall and narrow images will still only go to 150 tall, and your wide and long ones will only go to 150 wide.

Thank you. But I'm confused about how to do what you suggested on the following

Is this the price chunk which sits at line 113

<< <!--eof Product Name-->

<!--bof Product Price block -->

<h2 id="productPrices" class="productGeneral">

<?php

// base price

if ($show_onetime_charges_description == 'true') {

$one_time = '<span >' . TEXT_ONETIME_CHARGE_SYMBOL . TEXT_ONETIME_CHARGE_DESCRIPTION . '</span><br />';

} else {

$one_time = '';

}

echo $one_time . ((zen_has_product_attributes_values((int)$_GET['products_id']) and $flag_show_product_info_starting_at == 1) ? TEXT_BASE_PRICE : '') . zen_get_products_display_price((int)$_GET['products_id']);

?>

</h2>

<!--eof Product Price block -->>>

and I move it WHERE? Before Line 77 or after Line 106

Where you move it depends on where you want it. If you want it after the add to cart, paste it after the end of add to cart, if you want it before add to cart, add it before the add to cart section.

Love your template! Just what I was looking for.

I would like to change the referral code during new customer signup into a How did you hear about us? box. Any ideas?

Thanks

I've never done that, but there is a download for this:

How Did You Hear About Us

Thanks. I downloaded and for some reason the drop down box does not appear in my cherry zen template when the customer creates an account? However, when you create it gives you the error that you must select one.

What am I missing in the template do you think?

My template doesn't address the create_acount page. Perhaps you didn't upload all pertinent files? You did change all instances of YOUR_CUSTOM_TEMPLATE folders to your template folder name, right?

This shouldn't have anything to do with cherry_zen, try the How Did you Hear About Us Support thread.

I'm an idiot. Thanks so much for your help and your template.

I'm still lost as to how to move the price from next to the product image to below on the products page just like it is on the new products page.

and for some reason I lost the vertical lines inbetween the columns of products.

So sorry, I misunderstood you. Upload the original (from my template) includes/templates/cherry_zen/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php.

For the product listing, if you turn on the product name (in your admin, under "configuration", "Product Listing", that problem will go away, OR if you don't want the product name under the image, add this to your stylesheet:

.listingPrice {display:block;}

For the missing horizontal lines... does your includes/templates/cherry_zen/common/tpl_columnar_display.php have 5 lines that look like this:

     $r_params = str_replace(" back", "", $r_params);
     $r_params = str_replace("50", "98", $r_params);
	 $r_params = str_replace("33", "98", $r_params);
	 $col_width = str_replace("50", "48", $col_width);
     $col_width = str_replace("33", "31", $col_width);
