Apple Zen Support Thread

Thank you, I will give that a shot!

If you add these pages to the EZPages, (Tools, EZ-Pages in the admin), then follow STEP 8. in the readme.txt, and they will automatically show up in the Information drop menu.

halo jettrude, much tanks for the code..I have been doing some testing, and looks as if on ie 5.2 on Mac the dropdown menu stays at his place but does not drop down. On ie 6 where the problem was found first time , applying your code aparently does not solve the problem. The problem disapears when I turn on "Categories-Tabs Menu" .....

So I will just leave it on for the moment.

Have a nice day.

Hi... unfortunately, I'm not supporting mac ie 5.2. I'm a Mac user myself, but ie 5.2 isn't even supported by microsoft, so I'm not trying to make it work in all browsers.

What's your site link again?

Hey Jettrue,

Congratulations on producing the first truly professional-looking, and free, template for zen-cart!

Seems no-one replied to my last post, but then I did come in with all guns (or questions!) blazing, and perhaps a more polite protocol is called for.

Solved most of the problems I had there, but I still have one really annoying layout problem.

My version of apple_zen is fairly modified, as you can see, and I have changed (I know ya boo sucks!) to a non-fluid layout, with a set width.

I have changed all widths to 780px and 781px from 70em and 71em.

I have also played around with the centerColumn and NavColumn widths to get everything roughly where I want it (still much tweaking to be done).

The problem, is that can't get all the pieces to line up. Looking at my site in Firefox on a Mac, you will see that the main content is offset from the logo and drop menu.

https://www.shopfoundation.com/store/

Looking at it in Windows IE, things sort of line up, but i have a white box offset to the left of the drop-down menu.

I can't for the life of me work out why!!

Any help gratefully appreciated, to spare what little hair I have left!

I'll happily share my CSS code if it helps.

Regards,

James W

Hi, sorry for my delayed replies, I'm having little computer time lately. It looks like you've got it figured out? I'll try and devote more time to my templates this evening, sorry guys!

Still trying to figure it out but cant seem to fix it

Remove the padding-top from #tagline in the css.

Also, I'd remove the #logo img section, you don't need it.

Hi there,

I just looked at your site again, and it looks like you want to use the "narrow header version", but you didn't make all the changes for the narrow header. The section below is where you need to make changes:

#navMainWrapper {
width:100%; /* change to width:70em; for narrow header*/
margin:0 auto;
text-align:center;
}

#navMain {
width:70em /* remove width:70em; for narrow header */
margin:0 auto;
}

#navEZPagesTopWrapper {
width:100%; /* change to width:70em; for narrow header*/
margin:0 auto;
text-align:center;
padding:.5em 0;
}

#navCatTabsWrapper {
width:100%m; /* change to width:70em; for narrow header*/
margin:0 auto;
text-align:center;
padding:.5em 0;
}

#dropMenuWrapper {
width:100%;
background:#929292 /* remove background:#929292; for narrow header*/
margin:0 auto;
height:2.18em;
position:absolute;
top:0;
left:0;
}

Thanks for your response Jettrue! I probably should have stated also that these two pages are actually PAGE 2 and PAGE 3 that I RENAMED to
'ABOUT KIMBERLY and 'ABOUT STACEY'....so with that new information, is the proceedure you explained still then the same?

I have a problem with the flyout menu on the product categories section. This is only in IE 6 and 7. When you mouse over one level, then to the subcategories, then back to the category above it, the subcategories menu still appears to the right, but all blank for text, with just the background showing. See the screenshot attached. FYI, the development server this is on is at http://74.52.92.130/~jwebmark/

I would create those two pages in EZPAGES instead. Then if you follow the instructions, they will show up automatically.

That should be fixed in the newest version of the template.... what version are you using?

I really like this template, thank you.

I have a question, I would like to add another column to the drop down menu called Links. How would I do that? I am a real newb to zen cart so pardon my ignorance.

Thanks
