A few small issues with my website: Help appreciated!

Hi there,

I've been building an e-commerce store on Zen Cart and it's nearing completion; I just have 2 or 3 things that are giving me grief and was wondering if anyone could help me!

Website address: http://www.solojoe.co.uk
Template: Cherry Zen
Version: 1.38

1. Shadowing on Titles problem
   After developing the footer to highlight red when selected it seems to have affected the top menu - Is there a way to remove this from the top menu whilst not removing it from the footer?
   I've included an image that highlights the problem:

2. Random dot on product pages
   This random dot has appeared on the product pages and I'm stumped as to how to remove it!

I'm also looking for up to date UK shipping modules but they seem to hard to customize, if anyone has any insight into this it would be much appreciated!

There's a 10% e-coupon for anyone that can help!

1. This, in stylesheet_footer_menu.css :

li a:hover {background:#bb3a25;}

Zencart doesn't know that's only supposed to affect the footer, and will apply the background to any list item.

Add #footer to the rule:

#footer li a:hover {background:#bb3a25;}

BTW, it's not a good idea to secure the whole site - it can slow things down noticably.

...and it's good forum etiquette to let people know that the site is an "adult" site before they go to it.

If it is 1.3.8 as you have indicated then you really need to upgrade to 1.3.9h - BEFORE it gets hacked.

stevesh - what do you mean by "secure the whole site'? i recently added the "secured by ssl..." banner to my footer and now my site is slow as can be. not sure if this is a coincidence but any advice would be apprecited. also, the start new thread button has seem to have disappeared here otherwise i would have created a new page for this. thanks for any help.

All your page links are https links.

vger thanks for the prompt response. where do you see this? how do i change it?

Solo Joe, you have image handler installed, but it isn't working correctly, it isn't calling images from its cache its using the actual images, which is making your site painfully slow.

In the browser address bar. All your pages are https. It's better to let Zencart decide what needs to be secured.

In your includes/configure.php file you have an https address where there should be an http address.

https://www.lingerieandcostumedepot.com - when i go to this site i do not see any https - just http. am i missing something? this site has become extremely slow as of the week and im not sure what happened.

vger and I thought we were rplying to the original poster.

It's best to start a new thread with an unrelated question.

also does anyone know why i cannot start a new thread? i used to have a button up above but it is no longer there. any help here too is also appreciated.
