Apple Zen Support Thread

[mygalaxy]

I can't seem to find the proper file to have additional links in the footer besides 'home.' I'd like to add the same links as the top (products, info, etc.). I tried searching the Developers Tool Kit, but still not sure if I can find it in Admin or need to implement the links manually.

Also, the breadcrumbs on my 'contact us' page shows "Home>Contact Us>Contact Us>Contact Us." Not sure how to fix that either. Thanks again!

Nevermind about the 'home' link in the footer. I missed it in the tpl_footer because it didn't look the same as when I view the source from the browser.

Still not sure about the 'contact us' page though. Any suggestions?

Mygalaxy - The way I added links to my footer is by using the E-Z Pages feature in the admin. You can make custom links and have them at the top, sidebar or footer. Make a "new file" for and E-Z Page and then just cut and paste the URL or internal link from your "Products" page, "Info" page, or whatever page into the corresponding link box. Then you can turn on and off the header, sidebar, footer options. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the help! I wasn't sure if I overlooked some option in Admin, so I went ahead and altered the tpl_footer.php to contain the links I wanted at the bottom. I guess it worked the same, but it's good to know there's more ways than one.

Now, if only I could figure out my breadcrumbs issue on the 'contact us' page.

I don't think that is a template issue... perhaps ask that in the general forum?

I've updated apple zen for 1.3.8 (still will work in earlier versions, see readme.txt for more info).

Thanks to sturner47, the menu now works great in IE!

Updates to includes/templates/apple_zen/common/tpl_main_page.php, includes/templates/apple_zen/css/stylesheet.css, includes/templates/apple_zen/css/stylesheet_header_menu.css, includes/templates/apple_zen/templates/tpl_checkout_confirmation_default.php, includes/templates/apple_zen/templates/tpl_checkout_shipping_default.php

added: includes/templates/apple_zen/common/tpl_footer.php

Hiya Jade!

Glad to see the update! I was just about to ask you if you have tested Apple under IE 6 with sideboxes set to the left (rather than the right-side default).

I've had some strange things happen under IE 6... but managed to fix them. Basically, IE 5 & 6 need an extra container <div> for some situations.

Don't know if this is because of 1.3.8 ... didn't notice it before ...

One question... Will Apple support a 3-column layout? Or just 2-column?

I am planning on adapting the default template use Prof. Ruthsarian's Skidoo code. Very solid cross-browser compatibility:

what do you think?

what do you think?

When you used the left column option, did you follow the directions in the readme.txt for doing so? Did you leave the right column "ON" in the admin?

Apple zen is strictly a two column layout.

That skidoo layout looks interesting, thanks for sharing the link.

Jade:

What? ME follow instructions? LOL!

Actually, I hadn't tested your newest template... as you recall I did take a chainsaw to the code... <blush> maybe I chopped something out that I shouldn't have? Probably an extra <div> that was actually necessary. LOL!

Converting Skidoo to Zencart is not easy. I have to first relate and translate all the css classes, and of course mod all the /common/ template files... but by the end of all that I should thoroughly understand zencart code.

But FIRST I have to do a freight shipping module ...

Hi Jade, Thanks for provide the great Apple Zen Template. I am a newbie at the whole zen cart store. I have installed your template in ver 1.3.7 and all appears to work well except that the horizontal bar for the drop down boxes is not centered with the balance of the page. Do you know of a fix. Also were can i find were the credit card logo's on the check out page are located.

Thanks
Tim
