Patriot Template

arninc, are you using Zen-Cart Version 1.3.9g? If so, that was a little bug in that version. Upgrade to 1.3.9h and you won't have that problem.

Thanks. Any idea how to setup a favicon. I checked several post here with ideas but they don't work. Is there anything unique to this theme? There are some files this theme doesn't have that only appear under "english" such as "meta_tags.php" but they don't work. Thanks.

I resolved this so please disregard.

Please help! I am new to this and I cannot figure out what I have done. I can only see the background of the template and the header box. I am getting two error codes, but I am not sure what to do. Has anyone encountered this, or know what I am doing wrong? I appreciate any help!

I love this template!! I've been trying to increase the thumbnail size in the Category Product Image listings (before you click to go to the product page). How do I do this? I've tried all the config/images settings in the admin section!! Is it in the CSS?:blink:

I am glad you like the template. It was my learning experience.

As for your question. The image size is not in the css. Log into the admin section of your zencart installation.

Go to "Configuration/Layout Settings" on the menu bar

In there you will find the image dimensions. If your images do not all fit the same dimensions then I suggest you edit your images so that there is blank space around images that are smaller than the largest image.

Bear in mind that this may change the layout of the category images. I am not sure about this but it could.

Good luck.

CORRECTION

As for your question. The image size is not in the css. Log into the admin section of your zencart installation.

Go to "Configuration/Images" on the menu bar

In there you will find the image dimensions. Specifically, subcategory image width and height. Bear in mind that it will not increase the image size. It will increase the available space for the image. Then you must change the image to fit the new size.

For example. The subcategory image width and height are 100px by 57px. In the admin section you can double these to 200px and 114px. However the actual category images in the folder are 100px by 75px so it will appear that there is no change. Open the images in an image editor like photoshop and double the dimensions, upload the images and viola'.

If your images do not all fit the same dimensions then I suggest you edit your images so that there is blank space around images that are smaller than the largest image.

Bear in mind that this may change the layout of the category images. I am not sure about this but it could.

Good luck.

First, I LOVE this template! It's perfect for the site I am building. The only thing I can't figure out is how to get the text to align LEFT. You can see what I mean by going to:

http://www.Obama2012TshirtShop.com

Notice on the homepage that all text is aligned CENTER. Then when you click to either login or create an account, that form is also aligned CENTER. In the default, classic skin, the account registration and login pages are aligned LEFT. Matter of fact, every page on my site has the text/copy aligned CENTER.

I using this template on a fresh install of v1.3.9h I'm sure there's got to be an easy fix; perhaps changing a line in the stylesheet...but I'll be damned if I can find it.

Can SOMEBODY tell me how to fix this? Even if you don't lean towards my end of the political spectrum? :wink:

Thanks in advance!
