Footer Menu Support Thread

Muzz:

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 :(

do you have a link to your site?

the fact that you are seeing this BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US generally means that either you are missing a language file that contains that define statement.

But if as you indicated you have the about us definition file located in the extra_definitions folder and have added the define statement to the footer menu definitions then I'm not sure where the problem might lie.

I'm using WAMP rebuilding the site locally so unfortunately I have no link to my site.

I guess I will leave it for now and when I upload the site in a few days I could PM you?

I removed the footer menu from my site and now the ezpages links in the footer are all left, i look everywhere and cant find what is causing this. take a look here: https://www.dealport.us

Try changing the following in your stylesheet.css as indicated:

.footer-links li {
font: normal 11px verdana;
float: center;
margin: 3 2px 0 14px;
}

TO

.footer-links li {
display:inline;
font: normal 11px verdana;
text-align:center;
margin: 3 2px 0 14px;
}

Hi Clyde,

I got the five columns to show correctly.

But for the life of me i cant increase the text width in each box individually so that the text is all in one line.

If you have a look at https://www.truwater.com.au you will see the fifth column has text over two lines for one link...... Also they all dont seem even.

Some assistance would be good.

Thanks

open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet_footer_menu.css

find the following declaration and make the highlighted changes:

li a {margin:0;padding-left:1em;display:block;color:#0d87c4;white-space: nowrap;}

HI all,

My Site is live while I work on some things.

I'm having an issue with the footer MOD showing a link as

BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US

I tried below about a week ago.

ANY IDEAS?????

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.

Have you installed the about us page mod ( www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=182 )

Yes I have.

I'm going to re install it now though again and let you know if anything changed.

I reinstalled the About US mod.

I ONLY copied the files and renames custom folders etc..

No other modifications where made.

The link actually works.. it just displays the title wrong.

Sounds like you're missing one of the language files for the about us mod.

Check and make sure you have the following installed

includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/about_us.php

OR

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

HI I checked my files.

I have the about us file here:

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

The code is below.

I'd like to get this working but if not then remove the link all together.

The code is below.

<?php /** * @package languageDefines * @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'); ?>

I'd like to get this working but if not then remove the link all together.

To delete
open includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/YOUR_TEMPLATE/footer_menu_defines.php

find and comment out the following define statement.

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

find the following define statement and delete the highlighted portion

Define('INFORMATION', '<dd class="second">

Forgot to say thanks for the info..
I think the problem is caused from a conflict. I think I installed the about us module already a while back...

Turned off now and sorted. thanks

Hi Clyde,

Absolutely great module! Couple of questions:

I am currently using only 2 columns of the original 4 and I have them aligned over to the right, in the navSuppWrapper - which is a light gray area on my site. I'd like to keep the 2 columns positioned over to the right BUT also be able to put some other coding on the left side of the navSuppWrapper. It seems the way that I did simply pushes the 2 columns over to the right and STILL takes up the whole navSuppWrapper. Could you tell me how to do that via css in the stylesheet_footer_menu.css?

So I guess said another much simple way, is, is there a way to push the Footer Menu to the right side of the navSuppWrapper and still be able to put other code on the left side of it?

Please feel free to PM if you need a link to my site or the stylesheet_footer_menu.css - I'm not quite 'live' yet and so its down for maintenance.

Any ideas/suggestions are greatly appreciated.
