Footer Menu Support Thread

[Green333]

Hi again (o patient one!)

Ok - so maybe I'm having a really blond day, but my includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet_footer_menu.css is as per my previous post, and I don't appear to have the section that you have described. (and I'm pretty sure that it matches the one that I downloaded as part of the mod)

(Clearly I'm looking at something really really wrongly)

sorry - could you just have a look at my file again?

This is the stylesheet for the footer menu:

#footer {
	margin: 0 auto;
	text-align: left;
	background: url(../images/footer_bg.gif);
	width: 960px;
	height:112px;
	clear:both;
	}
#navSuppWrapper {
	margin: 10px 5px 10px;
	padding: 0;
	background:none;
	color: #444;
	width:100%;
	}	
#navSuppWrapper dl {margin: 0 0 3px 0;padding:0;clear:both;height:79px;width:100%;}/*Adjust the height and width of the menu*/
#navSuppWrapper dt {margin-bottom:.3em;font-weight:bold;}
#navSuppWrapper dd {margin:0;padding:0;float:left;width:24.3%;}/*Column width of the menu - currently set for 4 columns*/
#navSuppWrapper ul {margin:0;padding:0;list-style: none;}
#navSuppWrapper li {margin:0;padding:0;}
#navSuppWrapper li a:link {letter-spacing:.1em;color:#444;margin:0;padding-left:2em;padding-bottom:.3em;font-size:.9em;display:block;}
#navSuppWrapper li a:visited {letter-spacing:.1em;color:#444;margin:0;padding-left:2em;padding-bottom:.3em;display:block;}
#navSuppWrapper li a:hover {letter-spacing:.1em;color:#444;margin:0;padding-left:2em;padding-bottom:.3em;display:block;}
#navSuppWrapper li a:active {letter-spacing:.1em;color: #444;margin:0;padding-left:2em;padding-bottom:.3em;display:block;}
.menuTitle {margin:0;padding-bottom:.3em;text-align:center;font-size:1.1em;font-weight:bold;}
.first, .second, .third {border-right:1px dotted #000;}
#siteinfoLegal {
   margin:0 auto;
	padding: .5em 0 0;
	font-size: 0.9em;
	text-align:center;
	width:100%;
	line-height:normal;
	clear:both;
}
#siteinfoLegal a {padding: 0 0.5em 0 0.5em;color: #000;font-weight:bold;white-space: nowrap; }
#siteinfoLegal a:hover {color: #000;background: #EAC27C;}

Thank you for the code! that has fixed the font colour - and I didn't have to modify it at all. (still not sure why the file I downloaded differed?)

However - the columns have now enlarged (height & length) thus pushing the footer menu off the page (my site is www . p a r t y k i t n k a b o o d l e.com.au)

Could you please have a look?

Thanks (promise I won't bother you after this )

Change the highlighted portions to fit your template.

#footer {
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: left;
background: url(../images/footer_bg.gif);
width: 960px;
height:112px;

Hi There,

I installed the Footer Mod which is exactly what I was after. SO thanks for a great mod.

I one issue with it.

IN the Information heading I have:

BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US

This link originally didn't work.

I applied the about us module and also made the recommended edit to the:

includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_drop_menu.php

This fixed the link but didn't fix the text as it still shows:

BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US

If I do a search in Developers toolkit it's found in:

includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/yodgee_template/footer_menu_defines.php

Line #22 : Define('ABOUT', '<li><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ABOUT_US) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US . '</a></li>');

and

includes/modules/sideboxes/yodgee_template/information.php

Define('ABOUT', '<li><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ABOUT_US) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US . '</a></li>');

What would I need to edit to resolve this issue?

first make sure you have uploaded the following file from the about us mod.

includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/YOUR_TEMPLATE/about_us.php

[Muzz]

Yup thats there.

Code in it:

<?php
/**

* @copyright Copyright 2003-2006 Zen Cart Development Team
* @copyright Portions Copyright 2003 osCommerce
* @license http://www.zen-cart.com/license/2_0.txt GNU Public License V2.0
* @version $Id: about_us.php v1.3 $
*/

// this is used to display the text link in the "information" or other sidebox
define('BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US', 'About Us');

?>

?>

You can try the following:

open includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/footer_menu_defines.php


just above the following line of code you can add the about us define statement.

define('BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US', 'About Us');
/*BOF Menu Column 1 link Definitions*/

Hi Clyde Jones,

I tried adding the line of code as suggested:

Define('BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US', 'About Us');

where suggested in the file but no luck.

I also assumed you meant inside my template folder.

includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/MY_TEMPLATE/footer_menu_defines.php

Unfortunately, no go
