when you state Specify "Single Column Sort Order:" what am I suppose to be there.

I don't understand this question? Where do you see 'Single Column Sort Order:" ? Is this in the install.txt, zen cart admin?

Hello Forum,

I installed this template on my teststore at: q065sb.at/shop ... and am pretty impressed by the fabulous design. One thing nonetheless striked me - IE and FireBUG record an error in saying:

jQuery is not defined
})(jQuery);

It is the very last line in jscript_easySlider.js which is responsible for the proper display of the sliding image on the homescreen.

Despite this error, the sliding effect is however working nicely with no obvious bug. So I am wondering what is happening there. I would like to get rid of this message before implementing this template in my liveshop.

Thanks for your time and effort,
Stevie

Hi all,

This is a very nice template and deserves to be perfect. I would like to point out and fix one problem I have found. In the header the shopping cart item count and money totals in the cart are coded wrong in the (includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/common/tpl_header.php )file, find line 101 and between <li></li> replace with the following, the missing code is in red,


<li><img src="includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/images/cart.jpg" class="cart-image" alt="the shopping cart" /><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?> - <?php echo $_SESSION['cart']->count_contents();?> item(s) - <?php echo $currencies->format($_SESSION['cart']->show_total());?></a> | </li>

Hope this helps someone.

Rottie.

Well done on a great template...

Is there a way to make the 'categories' sidebox larger without affecting the design of the sidebox, I have tried chaging the size of the padding, margin etc in the stylesheet but can't get it right.

Thanks in advance

The sidebox top and bottom are done with images (sidebox-top.jpd and sidebox-bottom.jpg), so if you want to make the sidebox wider you can make these 2 image wider in your favorite image manipulation program and then upload them to:

includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/images

You will also have to adjust the width of the Column Width - Left Boxes and Column Width - Left in the admin--configuration--layout settings.

Excellent, thanks for the quick reply. I will try this later.

Just have a general question. I am using this great Template, however would like to redesign the Category sidebox (the other sideboxes can remain the same).
I downloaded the Category Dressing add-on however it didn't make any difference i.e. the sidebox-top & sidebox-bottom images still exist etc.

I would greatly appreciate if someone can tell me the best way to get a new category sidebox installed on this template, what files are affected etc?

Thanks a mill

You don't need a new category sidebox. You will need to edit the stylesheet that comes with the module to override the styles in the includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/css/stylesheet.css for the sideboxes.
