Footer Menu Support Thread

clydejones:

Could be something to do with permissions.
Check with your hosting provider.
What about permissions? The css is put in the same folder as the main stylesheet, right?

Is there something in the main stylesheet that should tell it to use your css for the special footer?

Once again, you should check with your hosting provider about the 403 error.

I am not getting a 403 error. just the footer menu not taking the styling. but no error is showing up.

The footer menu css is not being read.

If you view the source of your page(s) and click on the link for the footer menu css you will get the 403 error.

As I said previously check with your hosting provider.

YEAH!!! THANK YOU CLYDE.

I was able to simply change the Permissions and Viola! Here we go!
Great. I didn't have to call my hosting service.

:clap:

It looks MUCH better!

BTW, is there a reason why your css came into my css file with 600 permissions? Just so I can watch out for this in the future.

Again thank you for your patience with a new zenman.

Cheers,

none that I can think of. I've uploaded this mod on several sites without problems

For some reason I just can not change the background of the column holding the EZ pages. Where there are not EZ pages, the color of the background does not fill.

one reason might be that you are overriding the background color in the following declaration:

delete the background:none; declaration

#navSuppWrapper {
/* border:1px solid #ccc; */
margin: 1px 0px 0;
padding: 0;
background-color:#f6e2dd;
background:none;
font-weight: #500;
color: #f6e2dd;
width: 923px;
height: 150px;
font-family: verdana,arial,lucida,sans-serif;
}

Set the background-color for #navSuppWrapper {} instead of dd {}, and adjust the height and margins as desired to get the bottom edge of the bg color where you want it.

You can also set the width of dd{} to 24.91% to make it fill the space exactly (you might need to make it 24.9% to fit in all browsers).

You weren't online when I started to answer, Clyde, so I thought I'd give a quick reply... didn't look at the actual stylesheet, though - Firebug can be misleading:)

Hi there - I have a questions - I've added a new item called "RETURNS" under the Customer Service footer column - however it doesn't show up after adding it. I don't receive any errors, I can add it to the left side Information box and the link works correctly. Is there something defining only 5 items??

Here is my code:
/BOF Menu Column 3 link Definitions/
Define('TITLE_THREE', '<li class="menuTitle">Customer Service</li>');
Define('CONTACT','<li><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT . '</a></li>');
Define('SHIPPING', '<li><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHIPPING) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING . '</a></li>');
Define('PRIVACY', '<li><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY . '</a></li>');
Define('CONDITIONS','<li><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CONDITIONS) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONDITIONS . '</a></li>');
Define('ACCOUNT', '<li><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL') .'">' . HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT . '</a></li>');
Define('RETURNS', '<li><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_RETURNS, '', 'SSL') .'">' . BOX_INFORMATION_RETURNS . '</a></li>');/EOF Menu Column 3 link Definitions/

You also need to add the definition to the last section

/BOF Footer Menu Definitions/
Define('QUICKLINKS', '<dd class="first">

Thank you so much - I've been trying to find the solution for three days now. Jeff

Hi there - I got the Returns item to show up with the information that you helped me with - but instead of showing the word Returns under Customer Serice it displays: BOX_INFORMATION_RETURNS I must be missing a define some place.

Here is my website:https://www.vintagecollectionsonline.com

Thanks for any help, Jeff

make sure you have uploaded ALL of the following folders/files

includes/extra_datafiles/returns_filenames.php

Hi there,

Yeah I've checked all those and they are as you stated. Funny thing is the left side Information Box - has the Returns in it and it works fine which goes to the returns screen.

Can I show you any code of mine?

Thanks for being so responsive. Jeff

You could try adding the following to includes/languges/YOUR_TEMPLATE/english.php

define('BOX_INFORMATION_RETURNS', 'Returns');

Yes it worked!! Thank you so much!:clap:

glad you got it sorted

Excellent add-on. Thank you!

I do have one question, however. How can I remove the legal and "Powered by Zen Cart" from the footer? When I change the background color in the footer CSS file, I want the legal and "Powered by Zen Cart" to stay the color of the main page's background color.
