Apple Zen Support Thread

[printjuce]

I am trying to make the template wider. I went throught 1st 100 messages (and last 20), there are just tooo many.. so I tried this:

.centerColumn {
width:100%;
float:left;
margin:0;
padding:0;
text-align:left;
line-height:1.6em;
}

but the width is still the same.
P.S. I would like to keep the sidebox

Yea its verry possible exactly what jade said,. change the sections width:70em; with a bigger number, i'd used 80em , i also try using % in some parts.. check out my results.. http://partyinyormouth.com/store/zen...ain_page=index

Read the readme.txt. Specifically #5 in the tips section.

Okay Jade im back!

that tottaly worked..=) it only took me a few seconds..

sorry i didnt read tips section before. i thought it was just installation manual ..

all and all im new to this community forum stuff and i gotta tell you i was surprise how people like Jade could be so giving and helpful plus patient .. i have only posted about three threads and i have gotten more help that i would in the street. lol..
I could probably post a question on here on how to cook a good dish, and chances are it will be answer..lol

I have that exact same text in my .htaccess file (in the root folder of course) and replaced the 'yoursite.com' with my domain. Not really sure what else to do. It doesn't seem to matter if the zen cart is installed in a sub directory since yours works well, i.e. www.mysite.com/shopping.

If I'm not mistaken, it seems to only have problems with the home page when first loaded. On a separate web site, I've posted direct links to specific product category pages -- when I click on those links, the page loads up and the menus drop down just fine. I'm not sure if that has to do with something else, but may be helpful in figuring this out.

I see that your test site as well as many others who have used your template don't seem to have any trouble and the menus drop down in IE6. I greatly appreciate your time and continued support with this issue.

Any ideas?

Nope, change that back to the original.

Then change all instances of 70em to a larger number, maybe try 75em, then change all 71em to 76em.

Thank you!

I know these questions have likely been asked before, but I cannot seem to find it in this large forum (and FAQ would be great).

1. I do not want to use the right side layout boxes. I simply want to use the top menu. How do I disable the right side box area (shaded) so that the main page gets the complete space available?

2a. How can I make the header from about 2" high to about 1" high.
2b. The space between the LOGO and the MENU is about 1/2". How can I shorten that?

3. How do I remove the the small diagonal lines just under the menu items so that the navigation links (e.g. Home, etc.) are immedaitly under the menu? (not just remove the graphic, but also remove that space).

4. Optional: Where would the best place to insert code (if you have any, let me know) to the header to show your Gift Certificate balance?

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I am using your apple_zen 2.3 Green. Great job!

Accounts are created, but user is sent to a blank page. Actually, it's the same page, http://www.doodlebuckets.com/zen/ind...create_account but the page goes blank. Any help on this? I am running 1.3.8 and I tried creating an account with the classic template turned on and it worked, so I know it is either Apple Zen or something in my Apple Zen folders from other addons. Thanks!

Doodlebuckets,

I ran into the same thing during login and logoff (blank pages). I researched it and found "Blank pages are typically a result of PHP syntax errors or incomplete files resulting from failed FTP transfers." I went through the files I had just modified (functions, etc.) and found I had an PHP/define syntax error in my english.php file. I reverted back to my previous file and everything worked just fine!

Now, for my question (a couple above), does anyone know how to completly disable the rightside area where the layout box is supposed to go (for Apple_zen). I am only using the header menus and want to use that right-side shaded area so that my main page can expand to use that space.

Thanks!
