Cold Steel Template Support Thread

[daster]

I've searched the thread and still cant figure out how I can expand the width of the center main content? I've looked through the stylesheet and have changed values, but the text ends up popping out of the gray border lined box in the center. I would like to make it a little wider. Specifically 943px. Can anyone help?

not up yet. just running zencart off my computer for testing. i can take a screen shot and host it somewhere if you'd like to see which spot im talking about

Daster,

The grey border lined box is a graphic, used in #mainWrapper and located at: /includes/templates/cold_steel/images/main_wrapper_middle.gif

It's 917px wide, so you'd need to make that wider to start with.

However, personally, I'd rethink my approach if I needed to make a website any wider than that.

open includes/templates/cold_steel/css/stylesheet.css

check the width setting you have for for the following declaration:

.centerColumn {
margin: 0 auto/*5px 0 5px*/;
padding: 1em;
font-size: 1.2em;
width: 700px;
}

Libertyguy,

Assuming you want your menu links to stay centered when the window size changes, I recommend changing your 'navMainWrapper to...

#navMainWrapper {
font-size: 1.2em;
left: 260px;
position: relative;
top: -30px;
}

Celtic Thanks this drops text between header and body and on left margin but looks better I'll keep fiddling with it

I already tried changing the .centerColumn value and it just moves the text outside the box. Here is a picture of what I am trying to fix. I added a custom footer taken from Rubik Integration template. I want it to align. Also I am trying to get rid of that light gray box inside. I believe its remnant from coldsteel. The red arrows shows the areas I am talking about. Any ideas?

open includes/templates/cold_steel/css/stylesheet.css

find the following declarations; delete the highlighted portions.

adjust the width settings to match the width of the Rubik Integration template footer

#mainWrapper {
margin: 0 auto;
padding:0;
background: url(../images/main_wrapper_middle.gif);
background-repeat:repeat-y;
text-align: left;
width: 917px;
}

#footer {
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: left;
width: 913px;
height:90px;
}
#footerLogo {
margin: 0 5px;
padding: 0;
background: url(../images/inr_logo.gif) no-repeat;
float:left;
text-align:center;
height: 78px;
width:249px;
}
#navSuppWrapper {
margin: 0 5px;
padding: 0;
background: url(../images/footer.gif) no-repeat;
float:right;
font-weight: bold;
height: 78px;
color: #000;
width:619px;
}

Hello Clyde been reading most of your responses to the Cold Steel temp. I have would like to know how to remove the numbers from behind the Categories? (perhaps I missed it on earlier pages?) i.e.

Action Movies --> (7)
Cartoons --> (4)
Thriller --> (10)

Thanks in advance!

ps - I know this is off topic, but why can't I edit pages from the admin center (tools-->define pages editor).
It says it saved the edits, but if click on that same page again, the changes aren't saved. Any Ideas? Thanks again!
