Andover Modern Template Support Thread

jaropales:

Thank you, Anne. That was exactly what I was looking for. The problem is resolved and I learnt something about CSS.
As always, your help is highly appreciated.
Thank you again :)

I am happy that everything worked out ;-)

Thanks,

Anne

I want to change the titles Instead of "New" I want to put something like "Just In"
Thanks

You can use the developers toolkit in admin--tools to find out which files you need to edit.

Thanks,

Anne

If you removed files you need to download the template package again and upload these files:

includes/modules/pages/index/jscript_easySlider.php
includes/languages/english/html_includes/andover_modern/define_main_page.php
includes/templates/andover_modern/images/slide1.jpg, etc .

Thanks,

Anne

You can see the readme.html file for complete instructions on customizing the slideshow.

Thanks,

Anne

There are no zen cart admin files for the slideshow. They are all store files.

Thanks,

Anne

ah right.. the readme files told me to customise from the admin

You are confusing the define pages editor with admin files. You can edit the slide show in the define pages editor, but it is a template file and not an admin side file.

version 1.5.1
add customer from admin
image handler 4

http://dezertdezinez.com/cardshop

My question is on the front page of this template there are tabs in the center for the Feature/Specials/ New
The NEW buttons is not showing correctly? And am not sure what I did to change it.
Do you have some advice of how I can fix this ?

I did change the width of the sidebars in the admin screen. Would this have done the mess up to the button?

I changed the side bar width to 185 from 150

Please let me know if you need more information

My advice would re-trace your steps and systematically un-do the changes you have made. If you don't have a log of the changes, then you can replace the files in the css folder from the default template package.

thank you so much Anne
I was able to go back and put in part of the template and that fixed it. I love your templates and the easy look of them with the easy ready of the css files that helps so much when you are learning as you build

Having trouble getting the Andover Modern Template to run (appear?)
I was using Zen 1.50, but before installing the Andover template I upgraded to 1.5.1.
The Zen raw install was working fine.

The tutorial was often too confusing. I'm using a Centos 5 server with no CPANEL, or any other web management utility. I had to parse out the installation folder and place the files into the correct places manually without any installation file mapping provided.

From the tutorial, I copied and installed the db snippet.
There was no notes or explanation of what to do with the jscript: jquery.easing.1.3.js

After applying the entire online tutorial, I get a blank grey screen with the browser indicating that it had downloaded something from the website.

Current website:
http://www.graphicapplications.com/catalog/index.php

The logs don't indicate any errors.
The admin side works perfectly, without any errors or problems.

Just a blank website.

I've done the installation from scratch 3 times already and I don't see any way to make the main page live.

Please let me know where to look or what to do and put me out of my misery...at the moment I can't comment about the templates one way or another.

This is not a problem with the template. There are many people who have installed the template with no problems. All of our templates are fully compatible with version 1.5.1. If you are getting a blank page, you need to make sure that you have permissions set to 777 on your logs folder, then refresh your browser where the site is located, then check your log folder for error messages and correct any issues.

The javascript file you are talking about is in the readme folder and not a template file at all. These should not be copied to your server.

I would recommend switching to a web host that has the functionality you need to install the template properly.

Thanks,

Anne

I would not use an image map for the links. I would just use individual images and add them to the tpl_header.php file. Put a class or id on each image so that you can manipulate it with css.

It looks like your image social.png is not in the correct place on your server or the path to the image is not correct because the image will not load.

Anne

very good thank you for the help :)

Can I take the buttons from the footer and place that same script for the buttons in the header?

Yes you should be able to use the same xhtml code but you might need to adjust the css.
