Sophy Blue Template

[RiverCity]

Hello,

I've installed this beautiful template and am trying to get it all set up, I've been trying to locate the file to change the site title. Thought I found it but the text that is showing in the file isn't what is showing on the site.

I'm looking in: /public_html/includes/languages/english/sophyblue/meta_tags.php

Under Page Title, I have what I want there but it's not showing up in the browser title bar when you bring the site up. It's still showing, "HOME_PAGE_TITLE-Windows Internet Explorer".

Can someone help me find the correct area?

Thanks
Jim

Hi Jim,

This template was made for 1.3.7 and that particular area changed on 1.3.8. This is the correct process to do what you want:
-from FTP browser go to
/includes/languages/english/sophyblue/ (computer)
/public_html/includes/languages/english/ (server)

-from the server download:
header.php
index.php
meta_tags.php

Those are the 3 main pages you have to make changes to. The one for the title is the meta_tags.php.

-after making the changes as you want them, upload all of them to:
/public_html/includes/languages/english/sophyblue/

That should work... Have fun!

The left column box title "New Products [MORE]" is scrolling off the header of that box. Is there a way to fix this? I sized the left column to 175px so the bottom of the box would line up properly. I would like to show this box but I don't like how the text is not fitting on the column header.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Can you give me a link?

Hi,

I have installed your template on my cart and for some reason the top horizontal row of categories does not wrap - it just keeps going off the screen. I've looked at the #navMainWrapper and set it to 844px wide, but it still won't wrap in IE. It looks fine in Firefox, and it will wrap on the Classic template. I don't know what I am doing wrong - the CSS coding looks very similar to the classic so I don't know why it won't wrap. You can see what I'm talking about here: http://craftesite.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=

That's not the line that manages that area of the template.

You should go around line 293:

#navMain ul li, #navSupp ul li, #navCatTabs ul li {
    display: inline;
    white-space: nowrap;
    } 

Change it to:

#navMain ul li {
    display: inline;
    white-space: nowrap;
    }
#navSupp ul li, #navCatTabs ul li {
    display: inline;
    } 

This start I belief with IE8 but didn't happen before.

Here's a few posts regarding the sidebox headers with links in 'em that might be of some help..

The first link below deals with how to remove these sidebox header links altogether..

The second link below in particular deals specifically with why the font size of the hyperlinked sidebox headers are so much larger than the font size of the rest of your sideboxes headers (and yep you guessed it.. it's a CSS fix..)

Hope this helps..

If you upload the language files in the template, it should fix this.

You are awesome! Your fix worked. Thanks for the help and for sharing your template!!

Hi, I'm new to Zen Cart and html programming in general so please be patient with me. I've downloaded the sophy blue template (Very nice, by the way!) and am customizing it for my store. I'm currently having trouble editing the header. My store name shows up as expected, but I was hoping to give it a larger font size. Or, I would also consider putting my own logo in place and replacing the Zen-Cart logo. I've been looking for a while now and just not confident that I can make the changes without seriously screwing something up. Can someone please point me to the right files and help me understand how to modify them properly? Can this all be done from the admin control panel or do I need to modify the code? Thanks in advance!
