Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

authentic01:

I'm having the same problems others have addressed below and it seems it's still haven't been resolved. To make things more clear I'm attaching a print screen copy of what we're talking about. Oh, by the way as soon as we can get these resolved I definite would be using it. love it

Let me know if you can pull up the picture. Not sure if I've done it correctly. First time using this system.

Sorry to say but there is a lot of problems with this template. The layout & css for one. :oops:

Try looking at it in firefox and how the image overlaps the add to cart button. :unsure:

It should really be fixed.

You are incorrect. The layout and css are both good. The template has been cross browser tested in Firefox, ie6, ie7, ie8, chrome, and safari. The template uses the default product info page layout with the addition of a horizontal rule above the reviews and tell a friend buttons. This default layout has been tested by literally millions of zen cart users worldwide and proven to work in all browsers, operating systems, etc. If you have a problem with this page PinkLeopard, then it is unique and caused by something you have done to the css or code.

Look to the demo to see the template in action:

http://www.picaflor-azul.com/free-demos/index.php?main_page=index&template_switch_id=aberdeen_neutral

It is true that this template is designed to be a 2 column layout. I may update the template package at some point if there is a demand for a 3 column layout. In the meantime, if you want to use the template as a 3 column layout then you will have to add the styles for the right hand column into the stylesheet. This is the beauty of my GPL licensed template. You can modify it any way you like to fit your needs :smile:

Re: Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

authentic01--To get the newsletter unsubscribe on one line you should use the recommended admin settings for the left hand column width and left hand boxes width.

Re: Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

yes, that is true it's the same no matter what browser you're in. I believe the problem is when you downloaded the template and went back into admin/tools/layout there was a warning message at the top in order to clear you had to reset. This is what i've done so not sure if i didn't would i still have the same issues. But it wasn't stated don't. Well until the problem is fixed (even though I love the look of the template) I'll go back to the other one I'd got for free. What can you say it's free!! But nice job! I couldn't do it and I'm not technical to understand half of what i'm looking at anyway.

You can change all of the colors in the includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/css stylesheet.css

Re: Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

authentic01--I am talking about the recommended admin settings to make the template look like the demo. In the install.txt file:

===============================
5. Recommended Admin Settings:

Please note that this template was designed to look best when the ezpages in header and category tabs in header are turned off

To make your site look exactly like the demo:

A. In your Zen Cart admin:

Go to "Configuration" then "Product Listing"

Copy the values from:

http://www.picaflor-azul.com/free-demos/includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/images/product-listing.png

B. In your Zen Cart admin:

Go to "Configuration" then "Product Info"

Copy the values from:

http://www.picaflor-azul.com/free-demos/includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/images/product-info.png

C. In your Zen Cart admin:

Go to "Configuration" then "Layout Settings"

Copy the values from:

I don't understand this question? Where do you see 'Single Column Sort Order:" ? Is this in the install.txt, zen cart admin?

Re: Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

Hello Forum,

I installed this template on my teststore at: q065sb.at/shop ... and am pretty impressed by the fabulous design. One thing nonetheless striked me - IE and FireBUG record an error in saying:

jQuery is not defined
})(jQuery);

It is the very last line in jscript_easySlider.js which is responsible for the proper display of the sliding image on the homescreen.

Despite this error, the sliding effect is however working nicely with no obvious bug. So I am wondering what is happening there. I would like to get rid of this message before implementing this template in my liveshop.

Thanks for your time and effort,
Stevie

Here is a link to the easy sliders authors website:

I did not write this awesome code, so I would recommend contacting him.

It is released under the GPL, so you can work on the code and post your update for the community

Re: Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

Hi all,

This is a very nice template and deserves to be perfect. I would like to point out and fix one problem I have found. In the header the shopping cart item count and money totals in the cart are coded wrong in the (includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/common/tpl_header.php )****file, find line 101 and between <li></li> replace with the following, the missing code is in red,

<li><img src="includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/images/cart.jpg" class="cart-image" alt="the shopping cart" /><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?> - <?php echo $_SESSION['cart']->count_contents();?> item(s) - <?php echo $currencies->format($_SESSION['cart']->show_total());?></a> | </li>

Hope this helps someone.

Rottie.

Re: Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

Well done on a great template...

Is there a way to make the 'categories' sidebox larger without affecting the design of the sidebox, I have tried chaging the size of the padding, margin etc in the stylesheet but can't get it right.

Thanks in advance

The sidebox top and bottom are done with images (sidebox-top.jpd and sidebox-bottom.jpg), so if you want to make the sidebox wider you can make these 2 image wider in your favorite image manipulation program and then upload them to:

includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/images

You will also have to adjust the width of the Column Width - Left Boxes and Column Width - Left in the admin--configuration--layout settings.

Re: Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

Just have a general question. I am using this great Template, however would like to redesign the Category sidebox (the other sideboxes can remain the same).
I downloaded the Category Dressing add-on however it didn't make any difference i.e. the sidebox-top & sidebox-bottom images still exist etc.

I would greatly appreciate if someone can tell me the best way to get a new category sidebox installed on this template, what files are affected etc?

Thanks a mill

You don't need a new category sidebox. You will need to edit the stylesheet that comes with the module to override the styles in the includes/templates/aberdeen_neutral/css/stylesheet.css for the sideboxes.
