Bask black free template discussions

Did you save the edited includes/languages/english/header.php into includes/languages/english/bask_black/header.php? Is there already a copy of the file in your /bask_black/ folder?

The /template_default/images/ filepath indicates that the code looked in /bask_black/images/ and did not find the file.

We need to see your site live to diagnose the problem.

Hi gjh42

Thank you for replying, yes I saved it to there and it is still there (just checked) you can see the live site at https://www.lebriquet.co.uk

I know I have done something wrong but I can't work out what.

It is looking for your custom logo file, but not finding it in your custom folder.

What is the exact filename for your logo, and where is it saved?

The alt and title tags show that you have not changed that define in the copy of the file in /includes/languages/english/bask_black/header.php.

Hi

I have changed the Header.PHP file in: includes/languages/english/bask_black to

// added defines for header alt and text
define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Lebriquet, probably the worlds largest collectable lighter store');
define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', 'TagLine Here');
define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '700px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '150px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'lebriquetheader1.gif');

and I have saved my new logo to: includes/templates/bask_black/images/lebriquetheader1.gif
I have double checked and it is there and that the spelling is the same.

It's very frustrating not knowing what it is you are doing, drives me nuts :wacko:

You definitely have the bask_black template active:

and it is looking for your custom logo image and not finding it, but it is still using the template's stock alt tag. This is very strange - the actual file at /includes/languages/english/bask_black/header.php has only part of your custom information. Are you sure the copy there reads like your post? You say "I have changed the Header.PHP file"; do you have it capitalized? That could make a difference.

Hi There

Sorry for the delay, I had to do some work.

The the bask_black template is definitely the one I have edited, here is a cut and paste of what is there.
#logoWrapper {
width:700px;
height:150px;
background-image:url(../images/lebriquetheader1.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}

And the header.php (not capitalised) file reads (cut and paste just to be sure)
// added defines for header alt and text
define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Lebriquet, probably the worlds largest collectable lighter store');
define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', 'TagLine Here');
define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '700px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '150px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'lebriquetheader1.gif');

Thanks for helping me, I really appreciate it.
Colin

The #logoWrapper background is not related to the logo image defined for 'HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', but neither of them is appearing in your header. The file is being called for correctly in your page source, so it must not be available where you think it is. Look at the image directly (enter the URL for it like www .lebriquet .co.uk/includes/templates/bask_black/images/lebriquetheader1.gif) and see if it shows for you, or if you get an error message.

When looking for "http://www.lebriquet.co.uk/includes/templates/template_default/images/logo.gif" I do see the stock Zen Cart logo.

I can find the Zen logo but not my own logo, when I type in the path it brings up google which in turn directs me to your post.

I have looked all through the Bask_Black files and can't find the tag line being displayed anywhere.

It's driving me nuts.

I have taken all of the changes that I made out and the original bask black logo is now back.

the logo path is now http://www.lebriquet.co.uk/includes/templates/bask_black/images/logo.gif
and if you put it in your browser it does appear.
I have to go to work now for a couple of hours, when I come back I will start looking for the php file with the 12 leaves header in it. Grrrr

So what exactly is the name of the image file in /includes/templates/bask_black/images/ ?

I just noticed that the path below reads includes/..mages/logo.gif

and I have been changing the logowrapper to read includes/(../images/lebriquetheader1.gif

Would the ..mages and the ../images make a difference and cause all of this trouble?

The /...mages/ is just a display shortening of the URL. If you hover on it you will see the actual URL it links to.

changing the logowrapper to read includes/(../images/lebriquetheader1.gifThat would be wrong - you want to do exactly as you posted earlier:> The the bask_black template is definitely the one I have edited, here is a cut and paste of what is there.
#logoWrapper {
width:700px;
height:150px;
background-image:url(../images/lebriquetheader1.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}

Told you I was a noob:smile:

I have removed and reinstalled my logo as Lebriquetheader1.gif and I can now find it in my browser bar.

Would it be an idea to redo everything and see if that works?

Cheers
Colin

Using a capitalized image filename is not better than all lowercase (consistently using all lowercase minimizes the possibility of typos), but if it matches what is actually in your define, that is what you need.

You posted your define earlier with all lowercase for the filename; is that not what you actually had?

I think I made the mistake of capitalizing the image name and nothing else.
I now have another problem, the logo image is displaying but the stock image is also displaying in front of it. any ideas where I can edit this out?

Cheers
Colin

Last post on this subject I promise, I have managed to get rid of the stock template logo by editing the header file in the english folder. The one that the instructions tell you to edit but (not change) and save in the custom folder.
If I change it back to standard the stock logo comes back.

Anyway I think I have it fixed now and I just wanted to thank you help me fix a problem that was of my own doing, most appreciated.

Cheers

Hey Everyone,

Nevermind. Fixed it.

How can I make use of the white side fields? How to spread the whole content? I need more pixels in the left column and when I do so the whole page is shifted right but the header is not extended also so it is mismatched.

Thanks

Hi, I hate to add more fuel to the fire, but I need to bring up the topic again of getting rid of the 'currencies' drop down menu. When I edit the stylesheet it doesn't seem to do anything, and when when I get rid of the code in the tpl_header.php file it shifts everything upward and over my logo. So, I then edited the tpl_header_currencies.php file in the following location /includes/templates/bask_black/templates and set $show_currencies= false; from True to False in the 9th line down or so. This got rid of the currencies but the dropdown box still shows up. I have a feeling if I get rid of it that the header will cover up my logo again.

Any ideas? The website is www.desertskywholesale.com.

Any help is much appreciated.
