Aberdeen Neutral Template Support Thread

Hi there - I'm having great fun customizing the form to my needs - the last thing I will turn on are the rotating graphics.

I do have a question about the number of footer items that can display under the colums. Can you let me know which files I need to modify to add in more items - seems as though now there can only be 5 items. I am trying to add an item under Cusomter Service right now - I've added in the define for Returns but it doesn't display. I'm assume there is a setting some place that you need to adjust the number of items.

Thanks for any help! Jeff

Hi Anne,

I added my 'Returns' (from the returns authorization module) item to that file under Customer Service and it does not show up. However, if I turn on the Information Box (left side) it shows up there and works just fine.

I've attached the footer_menu_defines.php (renamed with .doc to upload). Can you tell me what I'm missing?

Thanks!

Jeff

Hi Anne,

I was wondering if you got my last reply regarding the footer area - I had modified the file that you suggested before emailing you about the problem and still no additions to the footer. I also include the file attached to my previous email back to you. Could you take a look at it and let me know what I need to change? I really appreciate it.

Thanks - Jeff

jfreeman--You need to edit:

includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/aberdeen_neutral/footer_menu_defines.php

If you do not see the link then you have a syntax error.

Thanks,

Anne

Hi Anne,

I have modified that exact file in the path that you stated. Would you mind looking at my code. I added one item under Customer Serviced called Returns.

Thanks - Jeff

I would recommend posting to the support thread for the Footer Menu module.

Hi Anne,

Can you tell me if my code is correct for the Returns? Should it matter which category I put additional options under?

If you post to the module support thread I am sure that the author will be able to help you.

Hi Anne,

Can you PLEASE look at my code to add a footer item in your code. Is it in the correct format?? It appears that even though I add the 6th item it does not display in the footer. The page displays correctly otherwise. I dont' know how else to explain that I just want you to tell me do I have the newly added item in the correct format so your template will display it. I am able to add it to the information left side box no problem and the link works perfectly.

How else can I explain this to you more clearly? I appreciate any help.

jfreeman--I don't want to sound like a broken record, but I did not write the code for the Footer Menu module. My best advice would be to post to the support thread for that module for help.
My guess is that you can find your answer if you read that support thread since it seems like adding links would be something that lots of people would like to do. The module author is intimate with the code and should be able to help you trouble shoot. Your trouble is not with the template, it is with the footer menu module.

Thanks,

Anne

Hi Anne,

Okay - I get it now - I don't think you mentioned to me that you did not write footer module. I will no search on that thanks.

I want this template completely black. Well, I found almost everything, but one area...

see https://www.surflocal.net/drshopping

Can you tell me on the css stylesheet where to get the rest of the white to black?

Also the update cart button is not using the css buttons like I have selected for this cart...?? The rest are using the css buttons.

LOVE your template!

Add this to the stylesheet.css:

#navColumnOne, #navMainWrapper, #navBreadCrumb, #navCatTabs {background-color:#000;}

You will also need to remove the white from your background images for sideboxes and #navMainWrapper.

Also the update cart button is not using the css buttons like I have selected for this cart...?? The rest are using the css buttons.

This is not a template problem--it is the way that zen cart natively handles this button. I would recommend doing a search on the forum to see if anyone has posted instructions for fixing this.

Thanks,

Anne

I am SO close...can you take a look and see what I am missing?

http://www.surflocal.net/drshopping/

Also, I have searched all over the forums and help and can not find out how to turn off the bottom navigation in the template. I don't want any of those pages at the bottom...how do I turn it off? I could not find that one when I went in to update the centerboxes...

Thank you so much. I am trying to launch this today.

You need to add

#navColumnOne, #navMainWrapper, #navBreadCrumb, #navCatTabs {background-color:#000;}

to the bottom of the stylesheet.css not the top.

Anne

The module that creates this menu is the Footer Menu module. If you don't want to use this module with the template, I would recommend downloading it from the "free softwear add-ons" section and removing all of the files it uses in your template installation.

Thanks,

Anne

Perfect!!

I want the cart images to be larger on the page? They are way too small.. I looked at the settings and changed some, but I saw no difference...do you happen to know?

Can you be more specific as to which images on which page? Are you talking about the product images on the shopping cart page?

Thanks,

Anne
