Andover Modern Template Support Thread

I am building my site using Andover Modern but I only have the plain text editor loaded in Zen Cart. I know that you must not use html for define pages editor in Andover Modern but would like to use it for the basic page text editing. If I go to Configuration/My Store and edit HTML editor, I only have one choice of plain text. Can you advise if it is ok to use html for Andover Modern and, if so, how I can have it available for use?
Many thanks.

The html area was removed by the zen cart developers in version 1.5+ If you want an html editor in your admin you can install one of the free html editor plugins ;-)

Thanks,

Anne

Thanks for your reply, Anne. I'll check out the plugins.

Add this to the bottom of your stylesheet.css file:

#moduleMenu-wrapper{display:none;}

Thanks,

Hello thank you for your template, I have been handed a project to compare Zen Cart to a Nopcommerce cart. The NOP has crashed several times on me and the customizing is very complicated to someone with very little code background. My biggest task with Zen is to get the mods installed without losing template functions which is where I am now, It’s a small issue but a function that I really liked. I have made a change or overwritten a file that has removed the New ,Featured and Specials add on to the main page and category page with the custom button format you had. They show up it there natural state on the pages. The site is rvmobilesupply.com/store/ could you please tell me in which file you think would handle this setting. Thank for your help and grate job.

The module that I believe you are talking about is called Tabbed Home Page Modules. I would recommend installing that module to get the functionality back.

Thanks,

Thank You for the quick reply that is the mod, I'll reload it up. One other thing I have been working on, I wanted a easy way to put a image on the right side of the header. I did a work around of changing the languages icon to the image and edited the text field I wanted, but I can't find where to change the code to change the hyper link to direct it to a page. This may not be suitable for the topic but while seaching this I couldn't find a header add on to do this.

Thanks for the support

You can add anything that you want to the header by editing the includes/templates/andover_modern/common/tpl_header.php file. If you need to adjust positioning you can do this in the includes/templates/andover_modern/css/stylesheet.css file.

Thanks,

I just installed this great template, due to my limited knowledge can not figure out how to make links in the product description to stand out using a different color. http://dolgin.net/zen_dolgin/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=2
I tried changing the stylesheet.css in includes/templates/andover_modern/css color codes, with no apparent results

You can do this by adding this to your stylesheet.css file:

#productDescription a{color:#your hexidecimal color number here;}

Thanks,

Anne

Thank you Ann, I wanted not the whole product description, but the links only.

Yes, the above code will only style the links.

Thanks,

Anne

I'm using ZenCart 1.5.1 and your latest version of the Andover Modern template. I keep receiving Debug files with the following warning:

PHP Warning: require(includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_tell_a_friend_default.php) [<a href='function.require'>function.require</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/www/users/xxxxx/xxxxxxx/catalog/includes/templates/andover_modern/common/tpl_main_page.php on line 122

It appears that the template is looking for a tpl_tell_a_friend_default.php template file, but I can find no such file in my original download of ZenCart or anywhere else. Any ideas on how I can correct this?

The tell a friend was removed in the latest version of zen cart for secuirty reasons.

There is no tpl_main_page.php included in the template package so you must have copied this file from an old version of zen cart.
