Abbington Mega Template [Support Thread]

I am brand new to this site, and have not yet figured out how to do a new post. So please excuse me if I am posting it in the wrong place.

I followed the below instructions to hide the drop down menus, it works for all of them but not customerservice( .customerservice-li). Is customerservice spelled differently or written differently?
Also, how do I change/hide the links that are displayed in drop down menus, information or quicklinks?

Hide any of the Drop Downs
You can hide any of the drop down menus by going to includes/templates/abbington_mega/css/stylesheet_mega_menu.css
Add a display:none; to the class for the drop down you want to hide. So, for example, if you wanted to hide contact us you would add this to the bottom of the file:
.contactus-li{display:none;}
The classes for the drop down menus are as follows:
.quicklinks-li
.categories-li
.manufacturers-li
.aboutus-li
.information-li
.contactus-li
.customerservice-li

soki:

Hi azul,

I just need the pure CSS Header Mega Menu to add to my site, can you please tell me how(what files are responsible)?

You can find a great tutorial about the menu here:

Thanks,

Anne

Hi Ive read your read me file a thousand times in regards to adjusting the stylesheet_mega_menu.css

I cannot find the code you described (aboutus-li) so I can place the code to not display the about us in the header. So far your read me is spot on but everytime I attempt to add {display:none;} anywhere I think might work it does not do what I need it to do. Where would i find the strings you listed? I dont see anything remotely close to your description.

Aside from that I love your template and thanks for any help.

Hi I just love this template Abbington Mega I have downloaded it and followed all the instructions but I seem to have done something wrong because I have started from scratch three or four times now and keep getting the same result.
The Template is installed but at the very top there seems to be an error produced by the code.
I get an Icon with a House and the word Home which is a link and works well. I then get an icon with a Star and the words Log In which is also a link and working well. But the the next icon is the shopping cart and next to that is this without the quotes " Shopping Cart - count_contents();?> item(s) - format($_SESSION['cart']->show_total());?> " This line of code is also is showing as a link and when clicked on it it shows the shopping cart on the front page.
Please could you help me fix this problem and let me know the files to change and where to find them.
All help most apreciated
Many thanks Steve

Awesome template! Thanks a ton!!

I have a small issue with the Gift certificate link. I have that module uninstalled in my Admin and it does not show up in the information sidebox but does show up in the footer. I went to the footer_defines.php file and removed the code but now I just have the word with no link. What file I need to edit to remove the words?

Thanks in advance,

It sounds like you are installing on a wamp server. Try installing a xamp and using that for your development ;-)

Thanks,

Anne

Just go a bit further down in the file and also remove the constant ;-)

Thanks,

Thanks that was simple enough!

Ok will try what you suggest but Im not sure why that should matter. Any way will try and see if the problem goes away.

That's so strange it all works now I have it with Xampp instead of Wamp
Thanks Anne

PS: I will visit your site and see if I can help with a donation for your good work after I have worked it all out.

Is there an issue with images once you get to secure pages? All is well, until someone logs in, or goes to any of the secure pages. Then NONE of the pictures work. It makes the pages impossible to navigate. I was wondering if there is a fairly simple fix for this. If not, I may need to go back to the Classic Template (really don't want to).

Otherwise I love this template !!

Well then, I guess everyone using this nice template has the same problem and is going back to the Classic template? Not.

Here is the template on one of my sister's sites:

promdressesglobal com

I put this template and zencart up for her. I'm logged in now, it has SSL and it works.

All of Anne's templates work. In fact, testing templates is my speciality and I have rarely come across a free template that didn't work (although some, like the Rubik Modern Zen which I'm working with now can be tricky.)

The problem is likely on your end. You didn't post a link and I found your site from another thread I looked at the other day. But since one apparently has to be logged in to see your problem, not many will want to go that far as to register. Perhaps Anne will come along and you can set up a login for her.

I wasn't insinuating that Anne's templates are buggy. Just that this one is new, and perhaps this one had some issues. The images problem wasn't a problem until I changed templates. I fully admit that I am new to Zen Cart. If it is on my end (I assume now that it is), I could use a point in the right direction.

This new template had an issue with the Contact Us in the header drop-down (submit button didn't work), but latest download fixed that. I'm aware of no other issues thus far.

I really do not know what is causing your problem. Perhaps a screen shot would help, but I can vision images not working (red x's?)

I'd suggest looking at your configure files to make sure they're set up properly, but if the Classic template works that probably isn't it.

Really don't know now, sorry.

However, one never needs to go back to the Classic template. More and more nice free templates are coming out for zencart, and in my experience they all work.

PS: If not too much trouble, and for trouble-shooting purposes, you might pop-up yet another free template to see if problem persists...and confirm again that Classic works. I'd suggest Anne's free All Business template, as that is a long-time favorite and definitely works (it's one of several I have loaded and ready to go on my main site.)

Okay, I went to your site and was going to register and login to see the problem. But I didn't have to get that far, as I had an immediate problem on your login page.

If you don't mind, here is your site:

http://southeastcell.com/

When I clicked on your Login at top of site, I got a bunch of red x's for the photos and the dreaded IE9 security pop-up warning re do you want unsecured items.

I also noticed it went to this different url:

https://secure119.inmotionhosting.com/~south125/index.php?main_page=login

I'm guessing that is the problem. Your SSL is apparently set-up way different than ours.

I may continue to try to register. Or not, as I'm not sure what this login link is. Can you confirm it is you?

Some sort of SSL issue... It started when I changed templates. I wonder if the shared SSL has to be set up again?
