Forest Path Template Support Thread

piker:

I am trying to find the settings for the Header Sales Text at the top of the page. Is it in the stylesheet.css and if so where?Thanks.

Thanks Clyde, I've got that sorted out now. If I could just get your advice on one more thing...
My New Products images overhang to the right hand side on the boxes on the left column. Changing settings for the colums and boxes in the "config->Layout Settings" doesn't seem to help. The "column width Left and Right Boxes" is currently set to 150px and the "Column Width Left and Right" is currently set to 160px. My images are set to 150px wide so they should be sitting in them nicely, but they aren't. Any ideas? Thanks.

this might be a padding issue.

open includes/templates/forest_path/css/stylesheet.css

find the entries for sideboxcontent and check/adjust the padding as needed.

It currently says..."padding: 0.4em 0.4em 1.5em 0.4em;" What would you say I should try setting it to?

try 0.4em 0 1.5em 0;

Hi Piker,

For changes/issues like this you can easily identify and test/fix them by using the 'Firebug' Addon for the Firefox browser.

If your not already using it, you will never know how you managed without it when you try it! Apologies for recommendations on this thread, but it will help you out a million.

Good luck

Steve

Thanks to you both. Its right now...:smile:
Clyde- you're suggestion worked well.
Stiggy100 - thanks for that suggestion ,I have it installed now. Before I tried Clydes suggestion it came up with a page of errors, but after following his instructions it is now down to only one.I don't know if its a real problem though...
It says: Expected color but found 'none'

#bannerboxHeading {
background-color: none;

Just change that to

background:none;

Can you please tell me how to remove/hide the View Cart button.

Can you please tell me how to remove/hide the View Cart button.

open includes/templates/forest_path/common/tpl_header.php

find the following section of code:

<?php if ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() != 0) { ?>
    <li<?php echo ((in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'checkout_shipping,checkout_payment,checkout_confirmation,checkout_success'))) ? ' class="current">' : '>');?><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo '<span>' . HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT . '</span>'; ?></a></li>
<?php }?>
    <li<?php echo (($current_page_base == 'shopping_cart') ? ' class="cart current">' : ' class="cart">');?><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo '<span>' . HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS . '</span>'; ?></a></li>

and replace it with the following:

<?php if ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() != 0) { ?>
    <li<?php echo ((in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'checkout_shipping,checkout_payment,checkout_confirmation,checkout_success'))) ? ' class="current">' : '>');?><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo '<span>' . HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT . '</span>'; ?></a></li>
<li<?php echo (($current_page_base == 'shopping_cart') ? ' class="cart current">' : ' class="cart">');?><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo '<span>' . HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS . '</span>'; ?></a></li>
<?php }?>

Many thanks Clyde, that helped.

A happy New Year to you and yours from this side of the pond.

Great Thanks for you help :-) The site is showing now so I guess I just have to wait for google to pick it up? I configured it in webtools before but doesn't show up yet maybe it will take little time do you know?

Anyway I appreciate your help with this and hope you have a great New Years!

Sincerely,

I know that it is unusual but I want to use the category count system.

I went to admin-configuration-my store and set the category count to true but it does not show.

Is there anything else that I can do to reset the category count.

You could check the color definitions in the stylesheet.css

#categoriesContent{
margin: 0;
padding: 0.4em 0.4em 10px 0.4em;
background: url(../images/sidebox_content.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:bottom;
color: #3300FF;
font-weight:bold;
}
#categoriesContent a {
padding: 0 0 .4em .5em;
color: #854401;
}
#categoriesContent a:hover {
color: #854401;
}
