Hi, Im very happy you like the template.

From looking at the image you posted, I think you may have the Right Column turned off.

Try going into Admin > Configuration > Layout Settings and see if the Right Column Global settings is set to on or off.

Cheers

Yes , It works like a charm , thanks for your quick response, it is absolutely EXCELLENT.

No problem at all teknorecord,

Glad you like it. If you have any other questions just fire them up here and I will be happy to answer them.

I love doing things a little different from the 'norm'. Might do another one when I get some time, maybe a space theme or something! that would be pretty cool.

Cheers

Has this template been tested out on 1.3.9f? I heard there were some that didnt work well when moving from 1.3.8 to 1.3.9.

I have not tested it on 1.3.9f, but i think it should work fine.

The structure of the template is standard, and from what I can see, no changes need to be made to it for it to work on 1.3.9 versions of ZenCart.

I suppose the best way to find out is to upload it, no core files are overwritten, and if it doesn't work you could easily change back to your previous template.
If it does work, please let us know, so others asking the same question will know too.

Thanks for downloading the template. It was great fun to make it, very different to any of the others ive seen. I might do another template soon, a nice bright fun one.

Just wanted to say i love this template however i did mod it a little and this is what i came up with https://www.qaga.org.au/theproshop.

Hi, I want to say I really like this Template, however I am really new to web design and trying to figure out where and how to modify some things, so here are my questions:

1. When I installed and viewed I have 2 black borders on the right and left how can I make those smaller? On my screen they are about as wide as the right/left columns(yes they are set at 200 like the instructions said).

2. I really like this font style, but would like to alter the color ... where would I go for that?

I did browse all the folders and found the blank header's which I really like the options. I am pretty computer literate... but anything dealing with web design... Im pretty well a dunce. I am willing to learn though :clap:
Thank you for helping :D

HI Nindak

I will have a go at helping you although im am new to it as well. I modded my template a lot and I done it all in photoshop and dreamweaver cs5.

1. The black lines are your background to make them smaller you need to make your site wider, see the post below ( you will also have to make your header image wider to suit)

Change cart width see here http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=163409&highlight=site+width

2. To change the font colour I re-made the buttons using the blank button in photoshop I have cs5
   I hope this helps you out a little

my modded site using this template is https://www.qaga.org.au/theproshop
let me know how you go

I will check that out... I really like your site =D Right now my webmaster, a friend who is letting me use his server has restricted some access in being able to do things >.< I had somehow deleted a folder... even the folder was missing in my backups too... so not sure what happened.

I dont have Photoshop, however do have paint.net ... LOL it seems pretty good for small item stuff.

I also dont have Dreamweaver. Any other possible options?

Thankyou for responding... Ill take a look at the post

Hello-

I'd really like to use this template. I am using zen cart v1.3.9e and uploading the template file into the path:

/public_html/store/includes/templates/

When I log into the zen cart admin, the template isn't available for selection to use it.

I must be missing a step or uploading the template to the wrong location. Can someone help me pleaaase? :cry:

Sheryl

how can I make appear the Login panel in this template and how can I move the "How I buy information" from "More information" to "information".

Just for the record, this template works just fine on ZC v1.3.9h

I would to know which file (and what code if possible) I need to alter to get my buttons to line up. I know I have looked at the file at least a hundred times but it just isn't jumping out and screaming "Here I am!!"

Here is one of my product pages:
http://www.wefoundem.com/unisex-blue-terry-shawl-velour-bathrobe-p-66.html

I like where the add to cart button is and would like to get the Tell-a-Friend and review buttons in a straight, evenly spaced out line in line with the add to cart button.

Any Ideas?
I know I am going to feel blind or stupid or both when I find out where it is.

Ok normally if you don't have any specials then the specials link will not show up. However, I was told that this template somehow overrides that and I need to know how to get rid of the silly thing hopefully without scrambling anything else.

HI DB,
Love the template!!
Only thing I don't like is the blue text on a blue border. How do i change the colour?

Cheers,

Maxy

Hi DB,
I've modded this template a bit. I'm now using the images for titles mod and would like to know how to remove the ones from the template? When i changed the name of the heading file from goodtoknowhead.gif to boxhead-goodtoknowhead.gif I get 2 of the same headings. One that's coming from the template and one that's used by the image for titles mod.

how can I remove yours??

Cheers,

Maxy
