Define Pages Generator addon - Support

When you created you page using the mod, did you put your template name there?

Because in some previous posts, you mentioned that your template name is "4fun", but now it seems to have a different name?

You have to put the name of the CURRENT template that you are using there for the mod to generates the correct folder name.

ok... I feel like a complete idiot about this. I was just coming to this conclusion right before I received this note from you. I just got the software up and running and was looking at the information that it asked for and you are right I did not do things right... pilot error indeed. I did not put the name of my current template into the box in the software where it asks for template name.

Well like Bandswidthjunkie said... sometimes you just have to beat your head against the wall enough till things become clear.

Thanks so much for your help. I'm going to try another page and this time I will put the right template name in there. Will let you know how it turns out.

Thanks so much!

I just tried the software again and provided the correct template directory name and everything worked right out of the box. Could not ask for things to come together any easier than that. I had the page up and running in about a minute.

Thanks for everything. You were right, yellow when you suggested there was a problem with the directory structure. My brain is what lol..

Anyway, thanks for hanging in there with me. I know that I've been a pain but I now know how to add things to the nav bar and I think that is something great. Can't say thanks enough..

Good luck with your swap over....

Glad we got it worked out.

This mod is really a time saver. Just look at the number of files it creates, normally you have to do that MANUALLY.
Thanks again, bwj.

You are right... it really IS a time saver. Plus just less things that your brain has to think about. A BIG thanks to BWJ! Great mod man. I even think I can speak a little Japanese now (smile)... just a little...

Thanks to both of you for all your help.

Yes, I think that is why it says in big red letters "Please read the instructions before using" and then on line two of the instructions it says "Enter the name of the template you are using"

Anyway I'm glad you got everything sorted out and thanks Yellow for sorting this out while I was asleep.

By the way Crabdance, now you've got the hang of this one, maybe you want to give my other mod a go: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=830

Hi BWJ... yea, I know.. RTFM. If I had only read the instructions I could have saved everyone a bunch of work. And yes, Yellow helped me a lot as well as you. Thanks to the both of you for your patience.

I will look at your other mod. This time I will read the instructions (lol)...

Thanks so much to both of you for helping me get through this all.

good morning!

I just looked at your other mod... funny because I just started using lightbox a couple of weeks ago. I really like it. Both your mod and lightbox are pretty neat programs. I think for now I will stick with the lightbox since I already have it installed and working.

Your mod really looks great though. I went to two different sites to look at the mod. Looked great too! You should be very proud/happy with that mod too.

Hope you have a wonderful morning. I'm going back to sleep for a while... didn't get much rest last night.

Yeah, slimbox and lightbox do the same job, and to the end user they look pretty much the same. The only difference is that slimbox is a much smaller download, so the page loads quicker, and you can customise the way it opens.

Another nice thing about slimbox is that you can actually open an iframe in that lightbox window, so for example if you had a privacy notice link in your information sidebox it could open in the lightbox so the user wouldn't move away from the page that they are on.

I can't take any credit for the actual effect though, that is the work of someone else.

I think you should take a lot of credit for porting it over to ZC. I looks great and I bet you spent a lot of time making sure things were working great for the mod. Good work!
