Thanks,

having a very frustrating go at installing this template on a fresh zen cart 1.3.9h installation. :(

I extracted the version 1.5 zip from the download site here to my zen cart root folder.

the files all appear to be fine.
/[zen cart root]/includes/templates/apparel_boutique/template_info.php is there and looks fine, permissions are world readable, I can't figure out why I only have the default theme in my drop down under Admin- tools - template selection

Follow the installation instructions in the readme. Go through each file in the template package and figure out which ones you are missing on your server.

Hi Anne,

Love this template but am having a mind numbing problem. I've spent the last few hours trying to insert a background color into my sideboxes. I've even tried adding code to make the background transparent but that did not work. I have it working on a few but not all of the sideboxes and that is the confusing part.

It seems that the Categories, Information, More Information, Important Links, and Manufacturers sideboxes must be edited separately? The What's New and Reviews boxes are working properly.

Also I'd like to increase the font size within the Categories box. Can that be done without changing it on the entire page?

Would you mind taking a peek and letting me know where to make these edits? https://www.wholesomehound.com

Thanks for the help and for this outstanding template!

Anna:blush:

You need to edit the includes/templates/apparel_boutique/css/stylesheet_betterCategoriesEzInfo.css

Thanks,

Anne

each file exists, I dragged and dropped the includes file from the template zip to my zen cart root folder, it merged without any overwrites, and I manually checked that each file is present. Other templates I've tried and used the same install method are showing up in the drop down.

Is this template compatible with 1.3.9h? I just noticed it says zen cart 1.5 on the template download page, maybe that is my problem.

I also just tried your 'andover modern' theme and I got the same problem, doesn't show up in drop-down. haven't figured this one out yet, I almost think for some reason its due to some windows/unix file format problem, although I went to the trouble of manually converting all the files to unix format my third try around with this theme and andover modern.

That is not the problem. The template is compatible with all versions up to and including 1.5

Whatever problem you are having it is not a problem inherent with the template packages. Thousands of users have managed to install the templates successfully.

Hi Anne,
I am using the most current version of zencart I think 1.9 or something like that. I am using apparel boutique and I needed to know how I can change the header or if there is a way to keep the header you have but change the name?
Thanks,

I am not sure what you mean "enable top navigation". Do you mean the header ezpages navigation? If this is what you mean, you will remove the display:none; in the style sheet for the #navEZPagesTop and #navCatTabsWrapper. Note that the template is designed to be used without these so they are not styled.

Thanks,

Anne

Got it,thanks very much :)

Hi there, how do I get the home page to show as

http://www.picaflor-azul.com/pica/install/apparel_boutique.jpg

instead of http://www.picaflor-azul.com/pica/install/apparel_325.jpg

Thank You

Tried sending the two stipulated SQL scripts and also played around in the Configuration - Product Listing, but to no avail.

Go to admin--configuration--layout settings and remove the right hand sideboxes and column. You will also need to widen the slide show and slide show images. See the readme.html file for instructions on how to use images of different dimensions in the slider.

You need to also remove the constants for these links further down in the file.

Thank you so much also do you know where the code is for the Facebook like button? It doesn't seem to be working for me. The button I am talking about is the one on the product page that says like when I click it the button changes state but it doesn't do anything on Facebook's end, are there additional steps I need to take to get it working?

The code for the add this is in the includes/templates/apparel_boutique/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php file.
