Westminster New

[RedSpinnaker]

Homepage Images

Can someone please help me with the following:

I have disabled the left side slide out panel, and all but one banner image in the "homepageslide" banner group.
Also I have set the hometop banner to HTML text.

Now what I want to do is to have the homepageslide banner image placed behind the hometop banner text. The effect I am looking for is to have the HTML text appear in front of the banner image.

I may be on the wrong track, but I am guessing that I need to code something like this for the homepageslide banner image, . . img {
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
z-index: -1;
}
Can anyone help ?

If you post a link to your site and try to explain more about what you are trying to do, I can take a look.

Thanks,

got it, should read (defined in includes/languages/english/westminster_new/shopping_cart.php)
Thanks

No, the text is correct. The zen cart instructions take into account that you will know to make all changes in override files.

Thanks,

Anne

If I may interject.. I can't say that I disagree with CosmosK, you and I know to make the changes in the overrides, but a nascent shopowner may not know this instinctively..

Maybe you should post about this in the code suggestions forum so that the developers can change the wording?

Oh I have done just that.. (and much more with regards to the default template..) Just suggesting that it's not a BAD idea to include that in the template or even the readme.. 'tis all..

Hi Anne,
The site is still under development in localhost, but this other site is an example of what I am trying to achieve, where the the HTML text "VENETIAN MASQUERADE MASKS etc . . " appears in front of the banner image(s).

I would recommend looking at the website for the flex slider to see if they have instructions for such a customization.

Sorry for any misunderstanding - but I only refer to the referenced website in order to show you an example of the effect I wish to achieve.

I am using the Westminster New template, and looking for guidance as to the appropriate Westminster templete files, and coding which I might implement, in order to achieve a similar effect?

Regards:)

Hi Anne

Thank you so much for such an amazing template but I would really really like to add a few things and would love it if you you assist me in adding a few things that I personally would like to see on this template without me messing up all the great responsive design you did.

The site currently looks like this: please see the image attached namely "Marshall Now"

As I am relatively new to this I would very much appreciate any and all assistance you could give me in order to make the site look the way I have made it look in Photoshop as depicted in the attached image namely "Marshall Changes"

Thank you for an amazing template and as always your assistance is greatly appreciated

Regards

Erwin

Just had a quick play so it's a bit dirty but you could move the slider image under the home-top div text by

.content-slider {
float: left;
margin-left: -30%; -- you'll need to experiment with the responsive views to see if a % or px is best
width: 65%; -- try altering the width of this and/or slider images to see what fits

and get the home-top div text to overlay the image by

#top-banner {
position: relative;
z-index: 999;
